Interaction Objects in the MADE Multimedia Environment

  • Conference paper
Multimedia/Hypermedia in Open Distributed Environments

Part of the book series: Eurographics ((EUROGRAPH))

Abstract

In order to support flexible interaction in interactive multimedia systems, we have defined general interaction objects that allow dynamic and transparent coupling of user interaction to media objects and other types of objects. The interaction objects are programmable in that they may use scripting languages for defining their behavior. This mechanism can be used to glue existing application capabilities together to form new end-user functionality.
