First International Workshop on Intelligence and Multimodality in
Multimedia Interfaces: Research and Applications
IMMI-1 is an International Workshop intended to promote concern with
the issues of communication in multimedia. We hear much about how
multimedia will transform our lives, but a good deal of the literature
is restricted to issues of networking, data compression etc. The
objective of IMMI-1 is to examine at a higher level how more useful
ways can be found to present information, using the facilities
multimedia makes available; how multimedia authoring can be given more
intelligent assistance; how interaction and dialogue can be improved
for users; what cognitive factors underlie effective use of
multimedia; and how information can be transformed for presentation
using different media in different contexts and for different
purposes.
