内容説明

Providing an overview of the most current research and development areas in multimedia, as well as current ongoing project applications, this book takes a world wide view of the technology, discussing developments in the US and the Far East, as well as Europe. "Multimedia Systems" covers technical areas, such as the representation and behaviour of different media, data compression with respect to multimedia, multimedia hardware, computer hardware, computer technology, operating system support, support of network and communication systems, characteristics of multimedia databases, multimedia documents, abstraction of multimedia programming and current multimedia applications.
