Multimedia abstractions for a digital video library

Multimedia abstractions form essential components of digital video libraries because they enable a user to determine a video’s distinguishing content without investing long viewing times or requiring high networktransfer speeds. This paper presents usage and evaluation data for abstractions implemented the Informedia Digital Video Library, and discusses implications for video delivery over the Web.
