Semantic Enhanced Multimedia Presentation Systems (SEMPS) 2006

It is almost 10 years since Intelligent Multimedia Presentation Systems (IMMPS) were formalised in a Standard Reference Model. Even then, the role of knowledge bases and reasoning was recognised as a vital element for the adaptive and automated production of multimedia presentations. This decade has seen the rise of the Web as a platform for multimedia delivery and of Semantic Web research to enable the expression and manipulation of knowledge over the Web. The goal of this workshop is to explore how Semantic Web technologies can be applied to Multimedia Presentation Systems in order to support Internet-based delivery of user and context personalised, rich media-based Web presentations and new innovative types of online service.
