Document management system

Summary

A document management system (DMS) is usually a computerized system used to store, share, track and manage files or documents. Some systems include history tracking where a log of the various versions created and modified by different users is recorded. The term has some overlap with the concepts of content management systems. It is often viewed as a component of enterprise content management (ECM) systems and related to digital asset management, document imaging, workflow systems and records management systems. History Beginning in the 1980s, a number of vendors began to develop software systems to manage paper-based documents. These systems dealt with paper documents, including printed and published documents and photographs, prints, etc. Later developers began to write a second type of system that could manage electronic documents, i.e., all those documents, or files, created on computers, and often stored on users' local s. The earliest Electronic document management (E

Visualisation of high-resolution 3D images on a web application

Matthieu François Edgard Rudelle

The web is a complicated world where users are demanding and where small optimizations can make a big difference. Users want the information fast, but they also want the best quality. In terms of images, there is a well documented solution to that; Virtual Texturing. But when it comes to browsers and web application very few documentation exist and they lack technical details. This leads to my project which consists in the implementation of a Virtual Texturing engine for a web application. And this paper documents the details of my journey.

The main objective of this paper is to present a flexible annotation management framework for a multimedia database system, applied to meeting recordings. Presented research and development activities are carried out within the scope of the IM2 project in which annotations play an important role in describing raw data from various points of view and in enhancing the query process. We focus on a database system capable of managing annotations (e.g. text transcriptions, dialog acts, speaker space position, etc.) and keeping links with raw data (audio, video, digital documents). This database provides a schema evolution mechanism and a meta-description layer ensuring flexible and incremental annotation definitions. To enhance this database system, some research works are currently in progress: a predictive methodology for schema evolution and a query technique that deals with fuzzy concepts and ontological commitments. We describe our on-going prototype development, in which we focus on data storage and interactive data access.
