As presentation technology advances, it is possible to incorporate a wider range of media including variable duration media such as simulations and animations. At the same time, users are able to take more control over presentations by controlling the rate and selection of media being played.

As a result of content-based searches and other methods of selections such as a selection from an index of slides, viewers may skip to different parts of a presentation or start viewing a presentation in the middle. These presentations must remain semantically coherent in the face of these interactions. This paper presents the work we have done to design and implement a framework to support the inclusion of diverse media displayers into a presentation and to support user interaction. The implementation maintains a consistent and coherent ...
