Abstract

We introduce Media Matrix, a system applying distributed, embedded computing techniques to the creation and maintenance of a queriable database of physical objects such as compact discs, video cassettes, books, and component bins. This paper provides theory, design, and implementation details as well as future work and potential applications.
