A multimedia system is characteritized by computer control, integration production, manipulation, presentation storage and communication of independent information which is encoded at least through a continuous (time dependent) and a discrete (time independent) medium.
Properties of multimedia system's | Characteristic of multimedia System
1. Combination of media.2. Independence.
3. Computer supported integration(computer control)
4. Communication system.
1. Combination of media:
According to the definition of multimedia system, a multimedia system must be composed with the help of different mediums and devices and all together when works or comes in function then it forms the multimedia system.2. Independence:
In the multimedia system different media should be independent from each other where as there should be inherently tight connection between different media to work together also.
3. Computer supported integration:
The different independent media are combined in arbitrary forms to work together as a system with the support of computers. Computer supported integration also called control through the computer in multimedia systems.
4. Communication systems:
Communication capable multimedia system must be approached. Multimedia information not only be created, proceed and stored but also be distributed above the single computer boundary which makes the multimedia application much popular and useful in distributed environment.
