Abstract
Most multimedia systems or standards provide one fixed concept for the temporal and spatial specification of documents. But different application areas - like computer based training or multimedia games - require different (application specific) concepts to support and simplify authoring. It is a very complex or even impossible task to specify documents for different application areas based on the same document model. This paper presents a document model, an approach to simplify authoring of documents in different application areas and a framework that supports the realization of the introduced concepts. The framework uses an event based approach and a scheduling graph to realize the semantics of an application concept.
