Abstract

This paper proposes an interactive multimedia authoring tool called STEVE (Spatio-Temporal View Editor) and a new multimedia model called SIMM (Simple Interactive Multimedia Model). STEVE aims at allowing users with no knowledge of multimedia authoring languages and models to create hypermedia applications for web and digital TV systems in a user-friendly way. Compared with existing multimedia authoring tools, STEVE is the unique tool that allows ordinary users to export hypermedia applications to HTML5 and NCL documents. STEVE uses an event-based temporal synchronization model called SIMM that exactly fits its needs. SIMM provides high-level temporal, spatial and interactivity relations to make authoring with STEVE easier. Usability tests show that, according to users, STEVE allowed them to create multimedia applications and export them as HTML5 and NCL documents in a few minutes without programming.
