The u-MUSE System: An Integrated UPnP AV Home Entertainment System supporting RUI Service and Device Mobility

In this paper, we present the u-MUSE system which is an integrated UPnP AV home entertainment system performing role of control center for various heterogeneous AV devices in home network via the integrated controller. The integrated controller is an integrated module of Control Point and MediaRenderer to support simultaneously control and rendering in same device. The u-MUSE system supports remote user interface service which is based on remote frame buffer (RFB) protocol and remote user interface technology. Users can directly access and control to remote devices. To support device mobility and various multimedia services such as control service or playback service ubiquitously in home, we embedded the integrated controller in mobile device of the system.
