Abstract | Integration of the World Wide Web and other information sources is strongly required in the recent advanced application environments. Although information sources contain various types of data objects, the volume of multimedia objects has been increasing drastically. The paper proposes a multimedia integration scheme using SMIL in a mediator based integration system. The scheme achieves dynamic creation of various Web views combining multimedia objects stored in heterogeneous information sources such as the Web, structured documents, and databases. A key point is to utilize SMIL as a framework for dynamic multimedia integration. Since there already exist some players for SMIL documents, dynamic integration results including multimedia objects can be rendered in such players, without special-purpose ones, and are ready to be broadly distributed. The main contributions of the paper are as follows. (1) We propose a dynamic, SMIL-based multimedia integration scheme. This scheme utilizes an extended relational data model named WebNR/SD. (2) We report on implementation of the proposed scheme. We have already implemented the first prototype system which realizes integration of heterogeneous information sources including multimedia objects. Actually, it can construct SMIL-based multimedia views dynamically. This shows the practical significance of our scheme. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
