A buffer management strategy for a model of digital continuous media display

The advent of multimedia information processing has brottght a lot of information managnnent issues into attention in the past few years. Prominent among them include the efficient storage and retrieval of multimedia objects. When handling digital continuous media, these issues become more critical. An efficient storage and retrieval process becnmrs useful and meaningful when combined with efficient buffer management. The bu.fftr acquisition and retention mechanisms go a long way to achieving the display requirements. Here, we present a technique for continuous media displays that strive to maintain some degree of data availability thro1tgh efficient buffer management. Media displrzy factors are deN/oped for data acquisition and buffer retention to satisfy media display requirements.
