Abstract
Unlike alphanumeric data, multimedia data contains embedded information which must be extracted and interpreted before it can be used or queried. Our goal is to explore new data models that are capable of representing and processing multimedia data. We propose a new object-oriented data modeling approach called MOODS (Modeling Object-Oriented Data Semantics) that integrates the multimedia data processing component of an information management system with the data modeling technique. MOODS supports three new abstractions that distinguish it from ordinary object-oriented data modeling techniques: dynamic data semantics, function groups, and composition. This paper describes the MOODS approach and shows how the approach can be applied to a pictorial information system. 1 Introduction Historically, a primary role of computers has been to manage data, in particular, alpha-numeric data consisting of numbers and characters. However, recent hardware and software advances have created a wide...
