What is DMMS?

I don't claim to know more than anyone else. I too wondered what DMMS was. I looked high, and I looked low, and I found............

Distributed Multimedia Systems (DMMS) is part of the Department of Informatics at University of Oslo . Formed in 2000 to investigate all aspects of distributed multimedia systems, the membership of the group includes academics, visiting academics and industrialists, research associates and postgraduate students.

Multimedia is a discipline that deals with search, creation, compression, storage, delivery and presentation of a variety of media such as audio, video, text, images, graphics and animation on various kinds of computers systems and networks.

The last few years have seen an explosive growth in multimedia computing, communications and applications. This revolution is transforming the way people live, work, and interact with one another, and is impacting the way businesses, government services, education, entertainment, and health care are operating. It is safe to say that the multimedia revolution is underway. Yet, several issues related to modeling, specification, analysis and design of distributed multimedia systems and applications are still challenging both researchers and practitioners.

I hope it's right.
