چکیده
We describe the design of an object-oriented multimedia database management system that can store and manage SGML/HyTime compliant multimedia documents. The system is capable of storing, within one database, different types o f documents by accommodating multiple document type definitions (DTDs). This is accomplished by dynamically creating object types according to element definitions in each DTD. The system also has tools to automatically insert markedup documents into the database. We discuss the system architecture, design issues and the system features.

Administering Structured Documents in Digital Libraries
In this chapter we argue that hyperdocuments administered by digital libraries have to be structured according to standardized storage and exchange formats in order to allow for the manipulation functionality required in digital library construction, maintenance and use. We demonstrate how SGML and its extension, HyTime, can play this structuring role, and how multimedia documents structured ac...
متن کاملThe Notion of Active Object - Oriented
Open Hypermedia Systems (OHS) are characterized by distributed, heterogeneous pieces of information. To cope with the main challenges of OHS one has to tackle consistency, eeciency, and interoperability issues. In this position paper we propose an OHS architecture based on an active object-oriented database system as well as SGML/HyTime as standardized interchange formats. By using active objec...
متن کاملHypermedia Document andWorkflow Management Based on Active Object-Oriented Databases
Challenging application domains for workflow systems such as electronic publishing and technical engineering require equally progressed document management features. This is due to the fact that document management within these application domains is characterized by huge amounts of data, highly structured documents, as well as hypermedia information. Integrating existing services for workflow ...
متن کاملZYX - A Semantic Model for Multimedia Documents and Presentations
Existing languages, formats, and multimedia document models such as HTML, MHEG, SMIL, HyTime, SGML, and XML, do not provide the appropriate modeling primitives needed to provide adequate support for reusability, interaction, adaptation, and presentation-neutral description of the structure and content of multimedia documents as required in the Cardio-OP project. Since each of these models lacks...
متن کاملThe Benefits of Open Hypermedia Systems Using Advanced Database Concepts
Large engineering enterprises are just one application area of open hypermedia systems (OHS), which are characterized by both, open hyperbase and link server functionality. An open hyperbase allows besides others to store and retrieve an extensible set of hypermedia objects. A link server allows to store and retrieve connectivity information and supports consistency management thereof. To provi...
