CONTENT MANAGEMENT –
MONITORING AND MANAGEMENT
OF PERSONAL DIGITAL CONTENT
FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in
addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses
arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 62919 has been prepared by technical area 8: Multimedia home
systems and applications for end-user network, of IEC technical committee 100: Audio, video
and multimedia systems and equipment.
The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:

INTRODUCTION
Users have ICT devices on which they store various digital content, such as movies, photos,
music, e-books and documents. Since the capacity of each ICT device is getting larger and
online storage services are provided, digital content can be stored on a wide range of devices.
Users also create backup copies of digital content on multiple devices. That causes the
production of multiple generations of digital copies from an original and the digital content can
be put somewhere in any order. As a result, digital content goes into hiding and users can be
unaware of the location where the digital content is stored. Therefore, users have difficulties in
searching for and finding the digital content they want, or it takes a lot of time to find the content.
Since users may forget the provenance of the digital content saved on their devices, the
information to identify the distribution channel is helpful for the users.
Even if users can easily recognize digital content, its location or its directory on a specific device,
it is not enough to solve the difficulties.
This document specifies the method in which each device makes content preservation
information in the specified format and sends it to the server system. The operation enables the
visualization of all their digital content, which is separately stored on various devices, and an
easy way to find the desired content.
In addition, the central server, which gathers the content preservation information from many
users’ own devices, provides the interface to derive the summary from the gathered information.
By deriving users’ content preservation information, a service provider can analyse the users’
usage and preference information, and it helps launch new flexible digital content distribution
structures.

CONTENT MANAGEMENT –
MONITORING AND MANAGEMENT
OF PERSONAL DIGITAL CONTENT
1 Scope
This document specifies requirements, the protocol and the data format to visualize personal
content saved on the various devices, such as mobile phones, music players, personal
computers, hard disk recorders and e-book devices.
This document also specifies methods for gathering information of digital content saved on
personal devices and shared within a group, and to extract the gathered information by uniform
application interface.

4 Basic system structure
4.1 View of digital content
Clause 4 shows the system behaviour and operations to visualize and monitor all digital content
that users have. The system behaviour and operations are listed as follows.
a) Each device sends out the content preservation information to the content information server,
which gathers the information on digital content saved on the device.
b) The content information server receives and stores the content preservation information.
The saved content preservation information can be extracted in user ID units.
Figure 1 shows the system behaviour on a) and b) in 4.1.

to servers or cloud
c) The content information server provides an interface that enables other servers to extract
content information in user ID units. The same or other servers can use the interface to
create the HTML format on my library and send it to the monitoring devices. The interface
also enables other servers and service providers to get, search and analyze users’ content
usage information or content preference information.
Figure 2 shows the interface on c) in 4.1.
