OSIA Portal 2009 Mid-Term Presentation Nazim Öztahtaci Jiawei Chen Parvinder Gill Ye Tian Xin Guo Communication System Design 2009 Fall Mid-Term Workshop Oct.20 th,2009

Project members and roles

What is OSIA?  OSIA: Open Service Interface Architecture  Framework for systems and services using web technology  A research and engineering project  Principal company – Interactive TV Arena  OSIA PORTAL 2009 concerns engineering aspect  Supported services: VoD, IPTV, VoIP, online games etc

Project goals  Implementing custom authentication module to DSS  Implementing Radius server to OSIA platform with MySQL database  Provide dynamic communication between DSS and Radius  Nazim and Jiawei  Parvinder  Nazim, Jiawei and Parvinder

Project goals - 2  Writing design rules for set-top-box interface of OSIA  Studying on new open source business models  Implementing new payment system: DaCC  Tian Ye  Xin Guo

Darwin Streaming Server - DSS  Open source streaming server  Current version:  Written language: C++  Supports dynamic modules  Source code available in

DSS RADIUS CLIENT OSIA DB User login User login check from Radius Streaming request to DSS Url Request Database connection Authenticati on Request Confirm DSS authentication and Freeradius task - diagram

DSS – Installation example  Web interface admin panel  Supported players: Quicktime, Real Player, VLC Player

DSS – Custom authentication  Supports dynamic modules  Implemented our own QTSSMyAuthModule(dynamic library) to define the authentication methods

DSS – Custom authentication -2  Checks whole URL of streaming request  If the URL has “declineme”, the request is declined

DSS – Custom authentication - 3  Remote authentication to Radius server  Send authentication package to Radius server  If Radius server replies as “Authentication OK”, streaming starts, otherwise request is blocked

DSS – Custom authentication - 4  Module sends out RADIUS packages to Radius server after DSS streaming request  Radius server replies as “Authentication OK” or “Authentication REJECT”  Currently, the username and password are sent to Radius manually – inside source code

Implementation of RADIUS to OSIA  Radius: remote authentication Dial- in user service  Radius provides centralized AAA(Authentication-Authorization- Accounting) services  Radius server- AAA with Freeradius and MySQL at back end

Importance of RADIUS in OSIA OSIA Platform Database OSIA Platform Acces List DSS User Database Radius DSS User OSIA without RadiusOSIA with Radius

Software tools for RADIUS task  Freeradius  MySQL 5.0  Dalo-radius 0.9.8

Communication between DSS and RADIUS  Radius does not have special configuration for DSS  DSS connects to Radius server using Freeradius client library  Radius will reply using its own protocol

Communication between OSIA and RADIUS  Develop RADIUS authentication module in php  Integrate RADIUS authentication module with OSIA platform

Writing design rules for set- top-box interface in OSIA  Set-top-box is used to receive digital TV data and connect to internet on regular televisions  Motorola/KreaTV-IP-Set-top-box is used on the task  It is based on IP address

Goals of set-top-box task  OSIA aims to provide interactive services independent from platforms  STB task is to make OSIA to work with STB as well  Find out "key rules" that can be applied in OSIA to generate proper portal representations for the Motorola/KreaTV-IP-STB

Tools and resources in STB  Motorola/KreaTV-IP-STB  Tomason standard definition TV  Javascript  Php  HTML  Motorola documentation  Portal design’s guide  Sources codes of OSIA

Design rules documentation  Version 1 is finished and released on project website  It consists of actions and input method to be used for design process

Next step in design rules task  Make demo codes to improve the design rules are feasibility  Improve the current design rules and find out more rules

Payment system for DaCC

Business tasks overview
