The Electronic Library manager's guide to interactive multimedia systems

Abstract

Multimedia is the integration of text, graphics, sound, still and moving images all on the same medium. Examples are television, videotapes and videodiscs—but these are often some‐what inflexible because the viewer/user cannot interact and actively participate in any real sense with the material being viewed because the user, despite seemingly being in control (e.g. with a videodisc), has to go where the program goes.
