Abstract

Multimedia presentation delivery characteristics are impacted by the delivery environment including network bandwidth, latency, local disk storage, etc., and this may invalidate the presentation schedule. These varying characteristics are not addressed adequately in the authoring process. We propose a new approach to multimedia presentation scheduling that utilizes constraint technology and a flexible set of scheduling heuristics. The Constraint Satisfaction Authoring Framework aims at increasing the expressive power of a multimedia authoring paradigm with regard to resource capacity conflicts. The approach deals with domain uncertainty and incorporates it into the presentation schedule.
