![]() ![]() ![]() Over the course of researching this report four authoring systems were examined and will be used in this discussion. The intent of this report is to determine the features and abilities desirable for a multimedia authoring system (and the multimedia applications created) and to look at several real world examples of such authoring systems. This report is about multimedia authoring systems: programs and collections of utilities that allow the creation of multimedia applications. A multimedia application is a piece of software that controls these various devices to coordinate and present information to a user based on the design of the application and input from the user. Such applications generally involve sophisticated hardware devices such as graphical terminals, digital audio and audio synthesizer devices, CD-ROM audio players, and video capture/overlay devices. These applications incorporate some combination of graphics, text, hypermedia controls, animation and sound to produce an interface that presents information in a manner that takes advantage of human capabilities such as hearing and color vision. New advances in audio and graphical hardware make possible multimedia applications. Over the last several years the stakes of state-of-the-art human computer interfaces have risen.
