A new capable content discovery platform based on multimedia data enrichment is presented in this paper. The platform, known as the IMCOP system, refers to the concept of intelligent discovery and delivery of multimedia content. Relevant stateof-the-art solutions are described in detail in the background section. The overall architecture and the main components of the IMCOP system are presented next. An original concept of Complex Multimedia Objects which extend the MPEG-7 standard to hold the processed data and bind it into content related collections is introduced. Selected results of tests illustrating how the IMCOP system performs in terms of responsiveness and stability under a particular workload are reported. Finally, IMCOP's advantages in reference to other content discovery platforms are discussed and summed up.
