Abstract
Applications are required for users to be able to interact with multimedia data. This means that applications are of central significance for users of multimedia systems, e.g., a person in search for some information from a kiosk system, or an artist who wants to create a presentation combining music, video, and animation. In all cases, users and data need an application to interact and create, modify and view this data. On the other hand, there is no general or universal approach to classify the large number of existing applications. This chapter introduces a representative set of this wealth and variety of multimedia applications.
