Abstract:
Multimedia systems are innovative systems that initially meant to be
used primarily for educational and presentation applications. The wide
use of Internet and generally the "media war" that characterize our
age, forces the use of Multimedia in a lot of other types of
applications. Innovative systems require innovative techniques and
methodologies. In this paper we present an architectural Pattern for
the creation of a StoryBoard. The StoryBoard is a technique that is
borrowed from the film making, and enhanced with additional
characteristics from Multimedia systems such as interactivity. This
pattern assists the designer in generating a StoryBoard for the
application that he is going to develop.
