Languages : en
Pages : 634
Book Description
Multimedia computing (MMC) is becoming an increasingly popular technology. The widespread use of personal computers, together with significant scientific and economic breakthroughs in multimedia technology have begun to make multimedia a practical paradigm of end user computing, from the interactive text and graphics model that has developed since the 1950s into one that is more compatible with the digital electronic world of the next century. Although the field of multimedia computing is more than 30 years old, the rapidly changing personal computing industry has become obsessed with a set of technologies, products and practices that falls under the rubric of multimedia computing. As the industry continues to race toward the 21st century, it is becoming more and more difficult for people who are interested, but not directly involved in the development of MMC to identify and understand the important and key issues that underlie this topic. Multimedia Computing: Preparing for the 21st Century addresses the modern environment of MMC by providing you with a contemporary and extensive source book for issues surrounding MMC today and trends and issues related to the next generation of end user computing utilizing the technologies of multimedia.

MULTIMEDIA COMPUTING
Author: Dr.Tariq Hussain

Languages : en
Pages : 269
Book Description
"The topic of multimedia is speedily becoming an essential in computer science and engineering prospectuses, exclusively now that multimedia touches most facets of these fields. Multimedia was originally seen as an upright application area; that is, a niche application with approaches that belong only to itself. However, like pervasive computing, multimedia is now principally a parallel application area and forms an imperative component of the study of computer graphics, image processing, databases, real-time systems, operating systems, information retrieval, computer networks, computer vision, and so on. Multimedia is no longer just a toy but forms part of the technological environment in which we work and think. This book fills the need for a College & university-level text that examines a good deal of the central outline computer science sees as belonging to this subject area. Multimedia has become allied with a certain set of issues in computer science and engineering, and we address those here. The book is not an introduction to simple design issues—it serves a more progressive audience than that. On the other hand, it is not a reference work — it is more a traditional textbook. While we inevitably discuss multimedia tools, we would like to give a sense of the underlying ideologies in the tasks those tools carry out. Students who undertake and succeed in a course based on this text can be said to really understand fundamental matters in regard to this material; hence the title of the text. In conjunction with this text, a fullfledged course should also allow students to make use of this knowledge to carry out interesting or even wonderful practical projects in multimedia, interactive projects that engage and sometimes amuse and, perhaps, even teach these same concepts. The book Multimedia & Computing comprehends five chapters for skill development course of B.A/B.Sc/ BCA Semester 5th according to the syllabus of University of Jammu, which inculcates theoretical & practical portions."

Cross-Cultural Multimedia Computing
Author: Shlomo Dubnov
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 331942873X
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 73
Book Description
The ability to communicate cultural codes in multimedia depends on their meaning and beauty, as perceived by different audiences around the globe. In this book, the ongoing research on computational modeling of visual, musical and textual contents is described in terms of identifying and mapping their semantic representations across different cultures. The underlying psychology of sense-making is quantified through analysis of aesthetics in terms of organizational and structural aspects of the contents that influence an audience’s formation of expectations for future signals, violations of these expectations, and explanations of their meaning. Complexity-accuracy tradeoffs in sound representation are further used to develop new computational methods that capture poietic and aesthetic aspects in music communication. Experimental studies are reported that try to characterize preferences for complexity in abstract, classical and traditional art and music across samples of Western and Far Eastern cultures. These experiments illustrate how aesthetics can be computed in terms of semantic and information measures, highlighting commonalities and uncovering differences in aesthetic preferences across cultures and individuals.
