Abstract

Audiovisual resources in the form of still pictures, graphical, 3D models, audio, speech, and video play an increasing pervasive role in our lives, and there will be a growing need to manage all these multimedia objects. This is a task of increasing importance for users who need to archive, organize, and search their multimedia collections in an appropriate fashion. To cope with this situation, much effort has been put in developing standards both for multimedia data (natural and synthetic (e.g., photography, face animation), continuous and static (e.g., video, image)) and for data describing multimedia content (metadata). The aim is to describe open multimedia frameworks and achieve a reasonable and interoperable use of multimedia data in a distributed environment.
