The management and applications of teleaction objects
Tóm tắt
Teleaction objects (TAOs) possess private knowledge specific to the object instances. The user can create and modify the private knowledge of a TAO, so that it automatically reacts to certain events to preperform operations for generating timely responses, improving operational efficiency and maintaining consistency. Moreover, TAOs also possess a hypergraph structure leading to the effective presentation and efficient communication of multimedia information. The active multimedia system (AMS) is designed to manage the TAOs. In the AMS, each TAO has its own private knowledge, realized by the active index cells. The applications to smart multimedia mail and multimedia information retrieval are described to illustrate the usefulness of TAOs. We discuss the advantages of the proposed approach and future research.
