Methods and messages to communicate between handler and applications.
MBMS API Set (initially a study only as it is unclear if 3GPP will define APIs)
API set that abstracts details and complexity of underlying MBMS operations, but provides essential
functionalities applications leverage MBMS delivery platform.

Rel-13 eDASH Work
3GPP developed DASH in 2010 and 2011 jointly with MPEG

Main Objective is alignment with industry profiles and technologies to enable cross-domain
deployments
Live Services: align with DASH-IF
Ad Insertion: align with DASH-IF
Content Protection: align with DASH-IF
Profiles: Aligned with DASH-IF and MPEG-DASH
Additional Optimizations:
Server and Network Assisted DASH (SAND) to support providing information to the client about network
status and also to provide feedback from the client to the network
Additional Metadata as considered necessary (Quality, etc.)
Relevant MBMS extensions

Conclusions
3GPP is upgrading their specification to provide a new delivery platform
highest-quality
Any device (mobile, tablet, stationary TVs)
Highly efficient use of radio resources
Sharing resources among users and MNOs for more efficiency
With Rel-14, 3GPP will be ready to delivery innovative TV and Content Services
These services are expected to available and further enhanced in the 5G context
