An interesting research prototype is "IMPACT", an authoring system for motion pictures that lets you browse through and edit the various scenes and cuts of a single motion picture. A good reference is: "IMPACT: An Interactive Natural Motion Picture Dedicated Multimedia Authoring System," by Hirotada Ueda et al., ACM CHI '91 Proceedings, 27 April - 2 May 1991. IMPACT appears to be a single user system. -- Steven Litvintchouk MITRE Corporation Burlington Road Bedford, MA 01730 Fone: (617)271-7753 ARPA: sdl@mitre-bedford.arpa UUCP: ...{att,decvax,genrad,ll-xn,philabs,utzoo}!linus!sdl "Those who will be able to conquer software will be able to conquer the world." -- Tadahiro Sekimoto, president, NEC Corp.

I would like to know if there is a hypertext system which lets you browse through motion films. That is it has a database of digitized movies and lets more than one user access this database at one time. Also if this is available, a.) does it allow more than one user to access one film at the same time and b.) does it allow more than one user to access the same film at different times. Any references that you can provide will also be appreciated. Radhika Sathyamurthy radhika@ecse.rpi.edu
