ABSTRACT
We demonstrate the concept of event-centric multimedia data management in the context of a multimedia eChronicle for the analysis, exploration, and reporting of events in military reconnaissance missions. Unlike the traditional media-centric approach, event-centricmultimedia data management focuses on the management of real-world events; documenting media are regarded as event metadata. For the detection of mission events, we apply simple but robust spatio-temporal clustering of basic soldier state and media events with good results considering the uncontrolled environment a military patrol constitutes. The core of the architecture is generic and applicable for the event-centric management of multimedia data in other domains as well.

A Joint Content-Event Model for Event-Centric Multimedia Indexing
ICSC '10: Proceedings of the 2010 IEEE Fourth International Conference on Semantic ComputingIn this paper, a joint content-event model for indexing multimedia data is proposed. The event part of the model follows a number of formal principles to represent several aspects of real-life events, whereas the content part is used to describe the ...

Context-oriented programming with EventJava
COP '09: Proceedings of the 1st ACM International Workshop on Context-Oriented ProgrammingRecent research on Distributed Event-based Systems (DEBS) has focussed on event correlation, which is the task of processing events to identify meaningful patterns of events in the event cloud. In DEBS, software components communicate by generating, ...
