- Abstract
- Discusses the features of multimedia products and those features which allow interaction, and considers the key differences between home and work use of information CD-ROMs. Sets out the criteria for the evaluation of products that are likely to contribute to the overall evaluation. These include: the information itself; methods of access; output of information; the quality and appropriateness of the media objects presented; interactive features; aesthetics and creativity; and performance, reliability and robustness

- Abstract
- Colours, icons, graphics, hypertext links and other multimedia elements are variables that affect information search strategies and information seeking behaviour. These variables are culturally constructed and represented and are subject to individual and community interpretation. Hypothesizes that users in different communities (in intercultural or multicultural context) will interpret differently the meanings of the multimedia objects on the Internet. Users' interpretations of multimedia objects may differ from the intentions of the designers. A study in this area is being undertaken

- Abstract
- The emerging information superhighway will bring to homes and business the ability to access and manipulate a vast amount of information stored in a variety of forms in different databases. Multimedia systems facilitate the access and manipulation of such information across high-speed networks. Multimedia database systems (MDSs) are a new generation of database systems that will provide a unified and interactive framework for users to request and integrate information stored in a variety of media. Applications of such systems in scientific research, commercial and business activities (via interactive TV systems), law enforcement, and military operations are numerous an obvious. This book presents basic research on the theory, implementations, and applications of MDSs

- Abstract
- Reports the 3rd and final phase of a research project to investigate the role of animation in enhancing recall and comprehension of text by grade 6 primary school students. Its aims were to: determine whether a complex descriptive text is enhanced by animation so long as the animation exhibits close semantic links with the text; to explore the importance of captions in linking an animation with a text so as to increase comprehension of that text; and to investigate the relationship between students' spatial skills and their ability to recall and comprehend a text enhanced with still images and animation. A descriptive text on the structure and functions of the heart from Compton's Multimedia Encyclopedia was used

- Abstract
- Reviews studies showing that multimedia may be able to help people learn more information more quickly compared to traditional classroom lectures. Redundant multimedia does not always improve learning compared to monomedia. Specific situations in which multimedia information may help people to learn include: when the media encourage dual coding of information, when the media support one another, and when the media are presented to learners with low prior knowledge or aptitude in the domain being learned. Specific multimedia can be used to help people learn specific kinds of information

- Abstract
- Presents the views of 7 European information professionals on the value and use of multimedia databases. The enjoyment of working with a colourful, well designed database may be very appealing, but not if it means that the cost of a search goes up. 4 factors will determine whether the promise of multimedia is realized: ease of use, including the ability to customise; platform independence; affordability; and the development of authoring tools that will allow information workers to create multimedia reports in the context of normal day to day activities

- Abstract
- Discusses an architecture for knowledge-based hypermedia systems based on work from semantic databases. Its power derives from its use of a single, uniform data structure which can be used to store both the intensional and extensional information needed to generate hypermedia systems. The architecture is also sufficiently powerful to accomodate the representation of reasonable amount of knowledge within a hypermedia system. Work has been conducted in building a number of prototypes on a small information base of digital image data. The prototypes serve as demonstrators of systems for managing the large amount of information held by museums of their artifacts. The aim of this work is to demonstrate the flexibility of the architecture in sereving the needs of a number of distinct user groups. The first prototype has demonstrated that the virtual architecture is capable of supporting some of the main hypermedia access methods. The current demonstrator is being used to investigate the potential of the approach for handling multiple classifications of hypermedia material. The research is particularly directed at the incorporation of evolving temporal and spatial knowledge

- Abstract
- Providing access to the ever-expanding world of information to a greater number and variety of individuals reminds one of the zeal that fostered the first publicly funded education system. It is clear that the survival of contemporary culture and technology rests heavily on an 'encyclopedia' of shared values and ideas. Awareness of and participation in this dynamic receptable of shared experience could eliminate certain socioeconomic distinction but may result in other forms of social stratification. While researchers labour over 'information visualization' as a means of filtering extremely complex quantitative relationships among data into relatively simple, manipulable graphical entities, a new form of literacy may emerge. With voice and pattern recognition, the multifunctional screen with its audio and visual motion may become a prosthesis allowing a growing population of the non-reading and video-oriented to initiate sophisticated information quests and become interested in textual interactivity

- Abstract
- Multimedia information systems, supplied on CD-ROM, are fast becoming a popular consumer product. A huge and growing range of titles is available from high street computer, electronic goods and book shops. Provides a compact set of evaluation criteria for these products, using established methods in the fields of human-computer interaction (HCI), computer-assisted learning (CAL), and information retrieval. The needs and desires of the home user are substantially different from those of the workplace or education user. Observation from product use, and an interview study with home multimedia users, suggests that factors such as aesthetics, levels of interactivity and information content may be crucially important in user satisfaction. Factors such as interface clarity and consistency may be less important than in workplace systems

- Abstract
- In this paper we discuss how browsing and querying, the two available major ways for accessing large amounts of data, form the point of view of interactive information retrieval. In this context we emphasize the notion of structured information and its impact on the performances of these two modalities of interaction. Aside natural complementarities between these two classes of retrieval environments, these considerations should enforce interest for models that fully integrate browsing and querying capabilities. We shortly present the main elements of such a model, with a particular attention to the retrieval component. Problems related to indexing structured information are also discussed and elements of a strategy for indexing hierarchical structures are presented. This strategy and the corresponding retrieval algorithm are aimed to ensure optimal granularity of system's responses considering redundancy among interrelated structural components

- Abstract
- Multimedia art catalogues present a number of recurring characteristics in both the type of data and the users involved, and in the type of operations required. Typical data include textual catalogue cards manageable through an information retrieval system (IRS), as well as textual captions, images, video and speech, strutured as a hypermedia network. Proposes a model for the design of these applications and discusses its effectiveness in improving the quality of the application. The model exploits a multi-level design approach to organize data and access structures of the IRS while the entity-relationship (E-R) approach, tailored to model hypermedia applications, is adopted to describe the structure of the documents and their links
