Abstract
Video Hyper Media (VHM) is an environment for creating and executing interactive multimedia applications. The database of the VHM comprises multimedia contents such as still pictures, moving pictures, and sounds and scenarios that describe the behavior and dynamic relationships of compound objects (combinations of the multimedia contents). With the interactive edit function of the VHM, applications such as the on-screen subject search and a video walk-through application can be developed without any programming. As an example of an application created with the VHM, we developed a railway line information system and confirmed the effectiveness of the VHM.
