Book Description:
Since multimedia systems are required to store and manipulate a variety of media types -- including text, graphics, images, sound, audio, and video among many others -- applications such as video-on-demand systems, interactive television, and video conferencing are becoming widely available at warp speed. This presents new challenges and obstacles to those in the multimedia industry. Multimedia Information Storage and Retrieval: Techniques and Technologies offers solutions to these challenges, providing data placement techniques, scheduling methods, caching techniques and emerging characteristics of multimedia information. Academicians, students, professionals and practitioners in the multimedia industry will benefit from this ground-breaking publication.

Restoration, Watermarking and Retrieval, Volume 8
This book provides an in-depth treatment of the three important topics related to image and video databases: restoration, watermarking and retrieval. It is the result of the participation of the Delft University of Technology in the European Union ACTS program, a pre-competitive R&D program on Advanced Communications Technologies and Services (1994-1998). In particular the book has benefited from participation in the AURORA and SMASH projects respectively automated film and video restoration and storage for multimedia systems (watermarking & retrieval)....
Information, Randomness and Incompleteness
Papers on Algorithmic Information Theory
2nd Edition
God not only plays dice in quantum mechanics, but even with the whole numbers! The discovery of randomness in arithmetic is presented in my book Algorithmic Information Theory published by Cambridge University Press. There I show that to decide if an algebraic equation in integers has finitely or infinitely many solutions is in some cases absolutely intractable. I exhibit an infinite series of such arithmetical assertions that are random arithmetical facts, and for which it is essentially the case that the only way to prove them is to assume them as axioms. This extreme form of Gdel incompleteness theorem shows that some arithmetical truths are totally...
