About this title

Synopsis

Digital Multimedia Perception and Design provides a well-rounded synopsis of the state-of-the-art technologies in perceptual-based multimedia design. It is the only such book on the market, uniting cutting-edge research by some of the top people in the field and filling a gap in the existing multimedia design literature. Digital Multimedia Perception and Design highlights how perceptual requirements can be incorporated in the design, development and transmission of multimedia, providing readers with a rich body of research and work done in this exciting area. This book aids all those interested in building true end-to-end multimedia information systems, and is useful to researchers, multimedia designers, and content and infrastructure providers.
