Abstract
We present an advanced multimedia infrastructure that integrates continuous real-time media streams within the WWW. This new service architecture focuses on advanced facilities for dealing with multimedia contents. A mediation server is at the heart of the infrastructure. It organizes and structures the multimedia information space. In addition to simple services for accessing and delivering multimedia data, it provides new functionalities for filtering and querying multimedia content. Content servers and on-line sources deliver media streams integrated within synchronized multimedia presentations. We think that the infrastructure will offer new opportunities for WWW-based information systems and electronic commerce.
期刊介绍:
The journal Netnomics is intended to be an outlet for research in electronic networking. As more and more transactions will be carried out electronically, new economic issues and problems will start to arise. A network-based real time macroeconomy will emerge with its own set of economic characteristic, which will create new opportunities for economic research. Topics that could be addressed are: pricing schemes for electronic services, electronic trading systems, data mining and high-frequency data, real-time forecasting, filtering, economic software agents, distributed database applications, digicash-ecash systems, and many more. Evidently, this is only the beginning. In the long run, a whole new field of research will emerge.
