Book Description

Multimedia technology, networks and online interactive multimedia services are taking advantage of a series of radical innovations in converging fields, such as the digitisation of signals, satellite and fibre optic based transmission systems, algorithms for signal compression and control, switching and storage devices, and others, whose combination has a supra-additive synergistic effect. In such an ever-evolving environment, teachers, researchers and professionals of the discipline need access to the most current information about the concepts, issues, trends and technologies in this emerging field. The Encyclopedia of Multimedia Technology and Networks provides in-depth coverage of the most important concepts, issues, trends and technologies in the multimedia discipline. This contemporary encyclopedia offers, in detail, an understanding of many topics related to multimedia evolution, design, communications, e-commerce, education, security, and virtual communities. In addition, it offers a thorough explanation of emerging multimedia technologies and applications. This encyclopedia is a valuable collection of articles that present perspectives from hundreds of researchers around the world and it is a valuable reference source for all libraries.
