The stor-age and retrieval of multimedia data are two of the most important technologies in the future multimedia systems. This paper analyzes the synchronization re-quirements of the delay-sensitive media streams, classifies the synchronization hierarchically and proposes several effective strategies for the intra-media and inter-media data placement problems.展开更多
文摘Multimedia data include text, image, audio and video, etc. Recent deve-lopments and advances in the areas of mass storage technology and high speed networks make it feasible for multimedia computing systems to offer services such as multimedia e-mail, teleconferencing and various vivid games.
