Educational goal:

Enabling students to collect, handle, archive, programme, synchronize and present multimedia data flow in the network environment.

Educational outcome:

Acquired knowledge and skills are used for development/use of software/systems of expressed multimedia.

Course content:

Multimedia (concepts, characteristics and media data flow). Characteristics of audio/video/image-graphic media (music-MIDI; speech; video-TV and HDTV / 3D). An overview of standards for compression and optical storage (standard algorithms; JPEG2000 and MPEG 1, 2, 4, 7 and 21; CD DA-ROM-WO-RW; DVD; holograph). MM communication systems (timer-user-control space and CSCW; requirements and limitations of the protocol on presentation-application and network-transportation ISO-OSI levels) and videoconference. MM data base (structures and operations). Synchronization of MM data (four-layer reference model and distributed systems). Program abstraction, tools and applications (programme and script languages; authoring systems and MM kiosk).

Teaching methods:

Lectures, Computer Practice, Consultations. The course is organized in 2 wholes which are checked in the form of 2 tests during the lectures. During Practice, multimedia contents are presented and manipulated on programs (DirectX or OpenGL) or authoring levels, creating simple systems for exchange of multimedia contents in real time. The quality of the Practice work is evaluated. Successfully solved exercises are the examination prerequisites. The examination is taken in the written form. Points won at the examination, tests and prerequisites are added to form the final grade.
