Definition
Media-processing workflows describe how a media-processing task can be performed by combining various available operators, such as sensors, filters, fusion operators, communication operators, and environmental actuators.
Ambient intelligence systems, which can provide situation-aware services to users require perceptive and cognitive capabilities transparently embedded in the surroundings to (1) continuously sense users’ needs, status, and the context, (2) filter and fuse multitude of real-time media data, and (3) reactby appropriately adapting the environment. For instance, an environment enhanced with media-rich ambient intelligence can provide the visually disabled citizens a variety of services (such as guidance, safety, and information kiosk) that can enable greater independence and mobility. Interactive art installations, which incorporate real-time, sensed, and archived media and audience responses...
