A Program Interface Prototype for a Multimedia Database Incorporating Images

Abstract

This thesis represents one aspect of an exploration of the integration of unformatted data types, such as image, sound and signal, with more conventional formatted types in a single database. The focus of this thesis is the implementation of a prototype of a database employing a relational model that incorporates both formatted and unformatted data types. Initial research was limited to integration of image data. The prototype provides storage and retrieval capabilities, as well as a modest query handling capability. Keywords: Database management system.
