The book is a monograph dealing with the computed synchronization for multimedia applications. It is the outgrowth of research conducted at the Dartmouth Experimental Visualization Lab. The authors follow a new concept, the joint analysis of multiple media components, leading to powerful tools in many application areas like compression and content-based retrieval. Besides the simple time synchronization of multiple media streams, relationships both in time and in space are taken into account. To find the correlations is a main topic of the monograph. The book is structured top down, first describing the framework, then the implementation. Some applications in form of case studies are added. Thus, the authors present such topics like media and synchronization models, multiple media analysis and correlations, parallel text alignment, text-to-speech alignment, algorithmic solutions, and their system XTRIEVE. The key word is the so-called media representation graph with some appropriate attributes. The book is suitable for graduate students and people dealing with virtual multimedia systems in research and application.
