Multimedia Content and Semantic Web - Methods, Standards and Tools is the first book of its kind to bring together the technologies and tools used for the description and processing of multimedia content with the standards and the emerging ideas of the shared knowledge representation, provided by the Semantic Web. This book provides a 'common language' and a 'common understanding' of the main problems that arise in this synergism. This common language is built by the contributors of the book who are leaders in the research and development of tools in multimedia content analysis, MPEG- 7, MPEG-21 and Semantic Web. The book provides three case studies which give examples of the real benefits to be derived from the adoption of semantic-web based ontologies in 'real world' situations. As such, the book is an excellent mixture of theory, tools and applications in an important area of WWW research and will be an essential title for postgraduate computer science students and researchers alike.
