ACAP - (Advanced Common Application Platform for Interactive Television) ACAP is primarily based on the GEM (Globally Executable Multimedia) home platform specification which was developed by the DVB consortium and DASE.

Both ACAP and OpenCable Platform (formerly known as "OCAP") are derived from the Global Executable MHP (GEM) specification.

At the time of this writing, ACAP trial runs have been done in Mexico. IPTV middleware architecture is being used to support data broadcast services based on ACAP, OpenCable Platform and MHP in Korea (and probably other places depending on when you read this.) In the U.S., a field trial is being organized by ATSC.
