CATALOGUE
: COMPUTING: MULTIMEDIA COMPUTING

Multimedia Computing
Daniel Cunliffe, Geoff Elliott

Until recently multimedia has been mainly confined to CD-ROM delivery. However, since the widespread adoption of the Internet and digital TV, multimedia has become an important medium through which we communicate. This growing importance is reflected in the number of undergraduate courses that include some element of multimedia computing. It is a broad subject encompassing many topics, and this book addresses the key areas that students are likely to encounter during their studies. The book is a clear and concise introduction to the subject, and will help students get to grips with difficult concepts, and understand how they are likely to be assessed. Key features include: learning outcomes for each chapter; brief explanations of key concepts; advice on exams and assessment; tips on common mistakes and how to avoid them.
