Abstract

The proliferation of shared multimedia narratives on the Internet is due to three main factors: increasing number of narrative producers, availability of narrative-sharing services, and increasing popularization of mobile devices that allow recording, editing, and sharing narratives. These factors characterize the emergence of an environment we call Internet of Narratives. One of the issues that arise with this environment is the cognitive overload experienced by users when consuming narratives. In this context, consuming a narrative means not only choosing from a large number of possibilities, but also how a narrative must be personalized to suit the user profile and the ubiquitous features of presentation environments. Narrative personalization is not restricted to removing, reordering and restructuring narratives, but it also covers configuring presentation environments according to narrative and user profiles. Through Internet of Things devices, narratives can sense the environment context and actuate on it to offer a more immersive and interactive consumption experience. This article proposes a middleware architecture for personalization of multimedia narratives. This architecture considers the ubiquitous characteristics of IoT presentation environment of multimedia narratives and the continuous stream of unstructured information of such environments.
