Abstract

The arrival of distributed multimedia technology has the potential both to create new application areas and augment those that already exist. However; to achieve this potential system developers must fully understand the nature of multimedia information systems and the mechanisms necessary for such systems to operate successfully. It is the quest for this knowledge which has initiated research into the needs of distributed multimedia applications. This paper provides a survey of multimedia applications research, and assesses its contribution to the understanding of distributed multimedia applications.
