Abstract

Data streams are very important sources of information for both researchers and other users. Data streams might be video or audio streams or streams of sensor readings or satellite images. Using digital libraries for archival, preservation, administration, and access control for this type of information greatly enhances the utility of data streams. For this specific type of digital libraries, our proposed event-based retrieval provides an alternate, yet a very natural way of retrieving information. People tend to remember or search by a specific event that occurred in the stream better than by the time at which this event occurred. In this paper we present the analysis and design of a digital library system that contains data streams and supports event-based retrieval.
