Klappentext

This volume is a record of the first Eurographics Workshopon Multimedia, held in Stockholm in April 1991. Thediscussions and presentations dealt with attempts to clarifythe different concepts in multimedia, object-orientedmethods for multimedia, multimedia from psychologicalperspectives, synchronization problems in multimedia,cooperative work using multimedia, multimedia interfacebuilders, and so on. There was also a small exhibitionpresenting four different systems ranging from commercialproducts to research prototypes.The book is divided into eight parts, on fundamentals,interaction, synchronization, demonstration presentations,cooperative work, information systems, systems, andconclusions.
