| dc.description.abstract | Hardware, software, and coding standards for digital media have played a significant role in making multimedia presentation an intrinsic compponent of many systems. However, these standards are primarily concerned with the storage, encoding and transport of media content, and have not been intended to address the integration of multimedia data into more general programming environments for media presentation. PREMO (PResentation Environments for Multimedia Objects) is a project within the SC24 committee of the International Organisation for Standardization (ISO) aimed at developing an API (Application Programmer Interface) that integrates the processing and presentation of distributed multimedia with that of synthesised graphics. This report summarises the contents of the PREMO standard and explains how the integration of graphics into a general framework for media processing is achieved. | en_US |
