What is multimedia?
What will be an ideal response?
The Wikipedia definition of multimedia is media and content that uses a combination of different forms. This is
probably one of the most useless recursive definitions ever! A better definition, from the BBC, is a multimedia
product uses a combination of images, words and sounds to present information. Multimedia is increasingly
being used in education, advertising and entertainment.
Clearly, multimedia indicates some form of presentation or entertainment/information system that includes
multiple types of media such as sound and vision. As far as computer users, designers, and programmers are
concerned, multimedia involves computer applications that include sound and vision processing, high?volume
storage, and high?speed data transmission in real?time. The characteristics of multimedia are large files, data
rates, storage requirements, and highly repetitive data operations on relatively simple data objects (e.g., pixels
and sound values).
