Integrated Media Systems (USC, Fall 2002)
This seminar course covers the state-of-the-art technology for integrated media systems. The course focuses on the underlying architectures for media rich environments. Such environments integrate multiple modalities (aural, visual, haptic), perform extensive computations, synchronize, store, retrieve, and transmit multiple media streams seamlessly. Students study and present recent technical papers on integrated media systems and architectures. A collaborative class-wide project illustrates multimedia processing and application integration techniques.
