Abstract

In the context of computing, multimedia has come to imply the integration of audio, video, and images with more traditional types of data such as text and numerics. It is an application-oriented technology that caters to the multisensory nature of humans and is based on the evolving ability of computers to store, transmit, and convey diverse types of information.
