A Toolkit for Building Migratory Continuous Media Applications

چکیده
In this paper, we propose a toolkit for building environment-aware migratory continuous media applications. In future computing environments, various objects in homes and o ces will embed computers, and various applications will be moved between these computers according to the location of these users. However, since the computers may have dramatically di erent hardware and software con gurations, the application cannot be moved without taking into account the con guration of the computer that the application is migrated. Therefore, migratory applications should be aware of environments that they are executed.

A toolkit for building continuous media applications
Multimedia computing has emerged in the last few years as a major area of computer science. However, multimedia programming is very hard since programmers need to take into account many complex facilities such as real-time processing, media synchronization, and dynamic QOS control. Since usual programmers take a long time to understand these facilities, multimedia toolkits that can hide such co...

متن کاملDesign and Performance of the Berkeley Continuous Media Toolkit
The design and performance of the Berkeley Continuous Media Toolkit (CMT) is described. CMT provides a programming environment for rapid development of continuous media applications. CMT overhead is measured in the context of a simple video playback application and is found to be only a few milliseconds per frame played. As a demonstration of CMT as a research infrastructure, an experiment comp...
متن کاملBerkeley Continuous Media Toolkit Api
The Berkeley Continuous Media Toolkit provides low-level, modular tools for developing distributed continuous media (CM) applications. The programming interface to the toolkit requires application developers to create and manage objects required to play back audio and video. These objects are distributed to di erent processes possibly on di erent hosts. This paper presents an application progra...
متن کاملA Scalable Approach to Continuous-Media Processing
Techniques that emphasize software reuse and scalability are becoming more important than ever. In this paper we present a component-based model for continuous-media applications. Components encapsulate expert knowledge and facilitate reuse. They provide a toolkit that is used to create a wide range of continuous-media applications. Our model is scalable in several dimensions: media transformat...
