Modeling for interactive presentation and navigation of time-dependent multimedia information

Abstract

For the time-dependent multimedia information systems, more and more powerful functionalities are being required to control the interactive presentation and browsing. However, it is hard to find a, suitable model for supporting all of the concepts such as synchronization, interaction and time-dependent linking of multimedia objects. In this paper, we present a model providing specification methods for the functionalities. We also verify the usefulness of this model by applying it to multimedia information systems.
