Metrics for Multimedia Languages

چکیده
Software engineering researchers have attempted to improve the software development process for over two decades. A primary thrust in this process lies in the arena of measurement. “You can’t control what you can’t measure” [5]. This research applies software metric techniques to the development of multimedia products. Problem areas such as education, instruction, training, and information systems can all benefit from more controlled approaches to development with multimedia tools. As an example, we focus on one multimedia language for creating multimedia products: Macromedia’s Authorware. This paper describes the measurement of various distinguishing properties of this language, together with an evaluation of the measurement process. The evaluation gives insight into the next step in establishing the goal of control, through measurement, of the multimedia software development process.

متن کاملThe Correlation of Machine Translation Evaluation Metrics with Human Judgement on Persian Language
Machine Translation Evaluation Metrics (MTEMs) are the central core of Machine Translation (MT) engines as they are developed based on frequent evaluation. Although MTEMs are widespread today, their validity and quality for many languages is still under question. The aim of this research study was to examine the validity and assess the quality of MTEMs from Lexical Similarity set on machine tra...
متن کاملOn Anthropomorphism in Technology-Enhanced Language Learning: Does Modality Matter in Agent-Based Multimedia Instruction on L2 Idioms?
The present study aimed to satisfy a twofold purpose: On the one hand, it sought to verify the postulation that agent-based instruction could offer a compromise approach to teaching L2 idioms where form and meaning would be equally emphasized during instruction. Given that anthropomorphism has not been much under scrutiny, this research, on the other hand, sought to ascertain whether learning a...
