DVB MHP Specification

In 1997, the DVB project published the DVB Multimedia Home Platform (MHP) Specification. It covers the application enhanced-content format, application environment, and Internet access for DTV. The latest version [34] of this specification was published in 2002. The DVB project selects Java technology as the foundation of MHP. The platform-independent Java environment enables the broadcasters and network service providers to create and offer compile-once and run-everywhere DTV services.
