While these systems work well, there are new requirements now to improve them towards the inclusion of multimedia data, i.e. images, graphics, video, and audio. Usually, multimedia data are stored in specialized servers which can cope with the requirements of real-time storage and delivery. Applications being developed today, however, need the services of both databases and these media servers. This paper presents (1) an open architecture for the integration of media servers and databases into a single system and (2) the object-oriented database design for the logical integration of media and data objects. 1 Introduction and Motivation Today, much work is dedicated to the handling, storing, and transporting of particular continuous-media data. But little work is invested to make the resulting systems interoperable, so that they can be integrated with existing systems or other... |
