Abstract: In this paper, we present an approach to multimedia scenario management in a database system that considers : object-oriented concepts for multimedia and scenario modeling; both known and unknown multimedia object playing duration; temporal specification language; Petri net automatic generation based on temporal specifications; automatic detection of user temporal specification errors and contradictions; and finally user interactions based on composite Petri net features.
Keywords: Multimedia; Petri net; concepts; database; interactions; object-oriented; temporal relations.
