Abstract

Various kinds of knowledge organisation, such as thesauri, are routinely used to label or tag multimedia content such as images and music and to support information retrieval, i.e. user search for such content. In this paper, we outline why this is the case, in particular focusing on the semantic gap between content and concept based multimedia retrieval. We survey some indexing vocabularies used for multimedia retrieval, and argue that techniques such as thesauri will be needed for the foreseeable future in order to support users in their need for multimedia content. In particular, we argue that artificial intelligence techniques are not mature enough to solve the problem of indexing multimedia conceptually and will not be able to replace human indexers for the foreseeable future.

Abstract

Reviews the future possibilities of convergence of digital image storage and dissemination techniques, cable and high resolution television and networks such as the Internet, in bringing sophisticated multimedia information services into the home and businesses. Predicts the future of these systems in publishing, entertainment, education, health care, telephone systems, computer software use, and business and suggests that the ultimate converged system could provide homes and businesses with the means of sending and receiving information by facsimile transmission, making copies, and accessing information from CD-ROM and CD-I drives

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

A model for analysing multimedia information is proposed from the point of view of the theory of communication. After a brief presentation of the complex map of the sciences that deal with multimedia communication in its different aspects, the current multimedia revolution is historically contextualized as a tendency towards messages that are able to build near-reality experiences (virtual reality). After setting the theoretical point of view, an analysis of multimedia messages is substantiated and a model is presented. The first part of the model deals with the different communications channels and tools: still images, movies, sounds, texts, text with illustrations, audiovisuals and interactive multimedia, with an emphasis in nontextual documents. The second part addresses the global properties of the multimedia message, which are of a textual and metatextual nature. The overlapping of media, channels, genres and messages-and the conscious and technical use of such interactions-is precisely one of the main and outstanding characteristics of the multimedia discourse, and requires specific moves in indexing languages development. The multimedia environment has also a great potential to promote a wider theory of knowledge organization, bringing closer distant fields like scientific and fictional indexing or verbal and image indexing. It is stated that such a unified theory requires a closer attention to the pragmatic aspects of indexing and the inclusion of new semantic layers. A simple indexing model is proposed to illustrate who to address these challenges.

Abstract

Examines the question of what role publishers should play in the multimedia market. A real mass market for multimedia products is now emerging which presents many opportunities for publishers. Describes how multiple media moves the publishing paradigm from one that is publisher-centred to one that is user-oriented. Outlines the multimedia strategy at Simon & Schuster which revolves around decentralized product development through franchises. The education market has been the most profitable market for multimedia publishing with the business and professional market, particularly corporate training, also a significant area. Predicts that online publishing will increase but that the new media will never eclipse the bound book, although the boundaries between multiple media products and books will increasingly blur

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

Discussions and presentations dealt with attempts to clarify the different concepts in multimedia, object-oriented methods for multimedia, multimedia from psychological perspectives, synchronization problems in multimedia, ccoperative work using multimedia, multimedia interface builders, and so on. There was also a small exhibition presenting 4 different systems ranging from commercial products to research prototypes. The book is divided into 8 parts, on fundamentals, interaction, synchronization, demonstration presentations, cooperative work, information systems, multimedia systems and conclusions

Abstract

Starts from the premise that meaning is not an intrinsic property of information items. Approaches to 'meaning' in diverse humanities disciplines, including philosophy, psychology, and the history of arts and music, are drawn on to enhance the understanding of meaning in the context of multimedia information retrieval on the Internet. The approaches described include philosophy of language and meaning, psychology of language including repertory grids and semantic differential, iconography and levels of meaning, and representation of music. A consistent theme in all these disciplines is the recognition that meaning is context dependent and may be analyzed at a variety of different levels, with nomenclature and number of levels varying across disciplines. Identifies the strengths and weaknesses of searching and retrieval on the Internet with particular emphasis on subject content and meaning. It shows the limitations of searching using the most basic level of meaning, while attempting to cater for a wide diversity of information resources and users. Recommends enhanced retrieval interfaces linked to the needs of specific user groups and the characteristics of specific media on the Internet

Abstract

Discusses the concepts of multimedia and hypermedia. Introduces 2 additional multimedia types; computational and directive. These depend on direct interaction with the end user and increase the use of computing facilities within hypermedia presentations. The recognition of interactive media types provide fertile ground for new classes of hypermedia link types. Offers examples from prototype hypermedia systems for maths education and electronic news delivery to illustrate the application of these additional media types
