Clients are given access to content from a variety of terminals with different capabilities. In order to adapt the SMIL content to these devices, the content access traverses an intermediate entity called adaptation proxy where the adaptation occurs. An experimental implementation of this framework shows how to achieve SMIL content adaptation using client profiles descriptions, negotiation strategies, simple SMIL adaptation and media transcoding.} }
