The Non-Profit Organisation TITAN promotes the interoperable interchange of Media Assets between IT systems. The group analyzes media requirements and available architectures to ensure that interoperability. Promoting interoperability takes the form of organising or participating in events, conferences, projects and publications. TITAN has called that dynamic "AXIS". The organisation of the European-Media-Wrapper-Round-Table (EMWRT) is one of the aspects of the AXIS project. The Wrapper theme represents the concept of Semantics. Read the Conclusions of the First European Media Wrapper Round Table (EMWRT).
