CPWCT: Making P2P home network secure virtual multimedia device
Abstract
Content management and protection are important features of emerging home network technologies. In this paper, we present the design of Content Protection for Workplace Client Technology (CPWCT), a novel secure content management system. In CPWCT, devices in a home network are organized in a secure P2P cluster leveraging the xCP Cluster Protocol. Additionally, a P2P content management mechanism is implemented which includes lightweight secure streaming and RDF based capability-aware content indexing technologies. We show how this approach can significantly enhance the ability to dynamically self-reorganize the underlying topology and deploy context sensitive functionality. © 2005 IEEE.
