Résumé :
Multimedia Database Systems: Design and Implementation Strategies is a compendium of the state-of-the-art research and development work pertaining to the problems and issues in the design and development of multimedia database systems. The chapters in the book are developed from presentations given at previous meetings of the International Workshop on Multi-Media Data Base Management Systems (IW-MMDBMS), and address the following issues:

• development of adequate multimedia database models,
• design of multimedia database query and retrieval languages,
• design of indexing and organization techniques,
• development of efficient and reliable storage models,
• development of efficient and dependable retrieval and delivery strategies, and
• development of flexible, adaptive, and reliable presentation techniques.
