Multimedia information will play a significant role in the next generation of mission-critical applications such as industrial process control, crisis management, and military command and control. Unlike multimedia applications for entertainment (such as video-on-demand services) and office automation (such as videoconferencing), multimedia in mission-critical applications has several unique requirements; on-line processing with real-time constraints due to its event driven nature; the ability to distinguish the criticality of concurrent streams with different degrees of importance; fault tolerance to hostile environments, and adaptability to system changes
