A Generic, Distributed and Scalable Multimedia Information Management Framework using CORBA

چکیده
This paper describes the design and the implementation of a framework for multimedia information management. The framework is built upon two notions. The one notion is a model that describes multimedia information management by (1) de ning foundation objects that de nes di erent aspects of multimedia management and by (2) providing a composition that brings those di erent aspects together in a consistent way and provides interoperability between them. The other notion is a distributed infrastructure, that is, CORBA, in which the model has been implemented. In this paper we give an overview of the COMMOTION model and its implementation. In the description of the implementation we focus on the implementation of a server and a client component. Our emphasis at the server side is the integration and implementation of standardized CORBA services as well as additional multimedia functionality. At the client side we emphasize the integration of existing frameworks/submodels into COMMOTION. Finally, we describe the main components we have built using the implementation.

A Framework for Managing Distributed Multimedia
This paper proposes a framework for managing distributed multimedia services and applications. We have developed a set of management services needed to monitor and control distributed multimedia applications and their supporting services. These management services have been developed using the object-oriented techniques. A management API has also been developed, which can be used for quick and ...
متن کاملA Corba-based Quality-of-service Management Framework for Distributed Multimedia Services and Applications
This paper presents a CORBA-based Quality-of-Service (QoS) management framework for distributed multimedia services and applications. The QoS MIB has been defined for the QoS management of various multimedia services, and consists of information objects that represent a set of layered QoS parameters. These managed objects are organized into four logical groups: service, application, system, and...

متن کاملFramework for Collaborative Multimedia Application Based on CORBA
In recent years, as Information superhighway and advancement of computing power, it has been increasing requirements about CSCW that is based on the distributed multimedia. And, because the policy of interaction in collaborative application is implemented in application, application must be implemented again if the policy of collaborative application is changed. It is big problem in environment...
متن کاملManaging Real-Time Distributed Multimedia Applications
Distributed multimedia applications are characterized by timing constraints and endto-end quality of service (QoS) requirements, and therefore need efficient management mechanisms to respond to transient changes in the load or the availability of the resources. This chapter presents a real-time distributed multimedia framework, based on the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA), tha...
