Abstract

This paper proposes a new method of specifying multimedia synchronization based on Duration Calculus (DC), a real time interval logic, presents the completeness of the new model, and uses it to specify the temporal relations between multimedia objects. Moreover, the paper provides a method of constructing a meta-script based on basic synchronization requirements. Some properties of the formal specifications, including safety and liveness, are stated in DC. Furthermore, the verification of the above properties is discussed in DC semantic. Compared with other methods for specifying multimedia synchronization, this method is more powerful and flexible, and it is good at specifying the quantitative properties of multimedia synchronization.
