Abstract

MIRA (Multimedia Information Remote Access) is an implementation of a generic Application Development Model, demostrating the scalability of such Model. MIRA allows session management and common working space (desktop) paradigms, allowing not only to retrieve information but also to have facilities for further handling of such information. The MIRA Tele-research application was based on specifications from Museum curators. Hence, MIRA is currently the basis of the BABEL network, which joins a number of Museums and Libraries.
