Until recently, databases contained easily indexed numbers and text. Today, in the age of powerful, graphically based computers, and the world wide web, databases are likely to contain a much greater variety of data forms, including images, sound, video clips, and even handwritten documents. When multimedia databases are the norm, traditional methods of working with databases no longer apply.

How do you query a video library, or an image database containing x-rays, or sounds in an audio database? Principles of Multimedia Database Systems explains how to work with these new multimedia data forms. It is the first comprehensive treatment of the skills and techniques required to build, maintain, and query multimedia databases.

This book presents the mix of techniques necessary for working with multimedia databases, including synthetic solutions for the design and deployment of multimedia database systems. Because rapid technological developments are constantly changing the landscape of multimedia databases, the book teaches basic theoretical principles applicable to any database.

Content Highlights

  • Covers the major issues of multimedia database design, with a strong focus on distributed multimedia databases.
  • Discusses important topics including how to organize the vast data types, storage and retrieval, and creation and delivery of multimedia presentations.
  • Organized around the lively scenario of a crime-fighting database that evolves as new concepts are introduced.
  • Includes numerous exercises and suggestions for programming projects.
  • Additional materials on the web include updates, on-line supplements, and links to downloadable software.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

直到最近,資料庫只包含易於索引的數字和文字。如今,在強大的圖形化電腦和全球資訊網的時代,資料庫很可能包含更多種類的數據形式,包括圖像、聲音、視頻片段,甚至手寫文件。當多媒體資料庫成為常態時,傳統的資料庫處理方法已不再適用。

如何查詢視頻庫、包含X光的圖像資料庫或音頻資料庫中的聲音?《多媒體資料庫系統原理》解釋了如何處理這些新的多媒體數據形式。這是第一本全面介紹建立、維護和查詢多媒體資料庫所需技能和技術的書籍。

本書介紹了處理多媒體資料庫所需的技術組合,包括設計和部署多媒體資料庫系統的綜合解決方案。由於快速的技術發展不斷改變多媒體資料庫的格局,本書教授了適用於任何資料庫的基本理論原則。

內容亮點
- 詳細介紹多媒體資料庫設計的主要問題,重點關注分佈式多媒體資料庫。
- 討論重要主題,包括如何組織龐大的數據類型、存儲和檢索,以及創建和傳遞多媒體演示。
- 圍繞一個活躍的犯罪打擊資料庫的場景組織,隨著引入新概念而不斷演進。
- 包含大量練習和編程項目建議。
- 網絡上的附加資料包括更新、在線補充資料和可下載軟體的連結。
