    abstract     = "The goal of this project is to present an ad-hoc solution for producing and consuming information within the context of Participatory Journalism using smartphones as the main media, together with theWeb, Web {TV} and {DVB}. The intent of such participation is to provide independent, reliable, accurate, wideranging and relevant information that a democracy requires[8]. The concept of participatory journalism is well described in [8]. It is also called bottom-up news model.
Producing information will be done using a simple and efficient Android mobile application. The users will be using a mobile application both for producing and enriching informations with new media content. Information consumption will be done by using a wide range of media: the Web, Web {TV} (I am going to use Google Web {TV} 2) and the common Digital Video Broadcasting for digital television3. In order to achieve this goal, I will present a mobile application that users will use for producing information. Then a Web page and a Google {TV} website will be presented, which users will use for consuming information. The interaction between all of the above components requires the design of a complex software framework that will be introduced in Section 3.2."
