碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 資訊管理研究所 === 96 === There are many advantages of digital television over traditional analog television. Beside the improvement of video quality and audio effect, it can also provide more channel programs after digital signal compression. Digital channel not only provides digitized program, but also enrich various kinds of commerce opportunities, including internet surfing, TV mail, interactive game, and personal video recording. This thesis focuses on the design and implement of an authoring tool for DVB defined MHP, multimedia home platform, standard. The system was designed using GUI interface for quickly authoring by visual operation and arrangement of HAVi interactive elements and action objects on screen. The Java source code can be generated and compiled automatically after the interactive application has been completed1. In this paper, the main contribution is to simplify the MHP application design complexity, especially on the characteristic of HAVi components and layout structure. While the instant result from Java code generation and compilation has made professional MHP application design become easily and also let DTV broadcaster deploy interactive services more quickly.
