Overview
ISO/IEC 21000-6:2004/Amd 1:2006 is an important amendment to the MPEG-21 multimedia framework, specifically enhancing Part 6, the Rights Data Dictionary. This amendment introduces Digital Item Identifier (DII) relationship types to better define and describe relationships among digital items in multimedia and information technology systems. It provides clear semantics for expressing how digital items relate through derivation and manifestation, supporting effective rights management and interoperability across platforms.
Developed by the ISO/IEC Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Subcommittee SC 29, this standard amendment extends the MPEG-21 framework by incorporating new relationship terms essential for tracking and managing digital rights and item identifiers in multimedia content delivery and usage.
Key Topics
- Digital Item Identifier (DII) Relationships: Defines nine new relationship types that specify how digital items are derived or related in multimedia contexts.
- Rights Data Dictionary Enhancement: Adds vocabulary related to the expression of derived manifestations and their sources.
- DerivedManifestation: Represents manifestations derived from an original source, providing clarity on content lineage.
- ExpressFromSource and Related Terms: Defines actions and agents involved in the derivation process, such as ExpresserFromSource (agents expressing derived content) and ExpressionFromSource (events representing derivation).
- Relationship Semantics: Clearly specifies reciprocal and hierarchical relationships such as IsManifestIn and IsManifestationOf to map derivations between digital items.
- Contextual Metadata: Includes time and place qualifiers for derivation expressions, supporting detailed tracking of content creation and usage circumstances.
Applications
This amendment is crucial for developers, content creators, rights managers, and system architects working with digital multimedia content. Practical uses include:
- Digital Rights Management (DRM): Enables unambiguous description of relationships between original content and derived versions, aiding license enforcement and rights tracking.
- Content Metadata Management: Enhances metadata schemas for cataloging digital assets with clear linkage between source content and derivatives.
- Interoperability in Multimedia Frameworks: Supports consistent interpretation of digital item relationships across platforms and applications compliant with MPEG-21.
- Intellectual Property Tracking: Assists in managing genealogies of multimedia items, ensuring provenance and derivation are accurately recorded.
- Enhanced Search and Retrieval: Relationship types improve indexing and querying of digital content repositories by relating different manifestations of multimedia resources.
Related Standards
- ISO/IEC 21000-3: Multimedia Framework – Part 3: Digital Item Declaration, providing the basis for the amendment semantics.
- ISO/IEC MPEG-21 Series: Overall multimedia framework standards integrating components for digital rights, content description, and delivery.
- ISO/IEC 21000-6:2004: Original Rights Data Dictionary without amendment, detailing standardized rights expressions for multimedia.
- Other MPEG-21 Parts: Including Parts covering Digital Item Identification, Rights Expression Language, and Protection Information.
By adopting ISO/IEC 21000-6:2004/Amd 1:2006, organizations involved in digital media creation, distribution, and rights management ensure a robust and interoperable framework to articulate and manage digital content relationships, thus supporting advanced multimedia ecosystems aligned with international standards.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical
Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of
ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees
established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC
technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information
technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International
Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as
an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Amendment 1 to ISO/IEC 21000-6:2004 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1,
Information technology, Subcommittee SC 29, Coding of audio, picture, multimedia and hypermedia
information.
This Amendment to ISO/IEC 21000-6:2004 provides semantics to ISO/IEC 21000-3:2003/Amd.1. It provides
