Instructor: Carl Beckmann, Thayer School of Engineering

Project: A marriage of digital video and the World Wide Web can deliver videotaped lectures to students on demand. In addition to permitting access to previous lectures for study and review, the project will enable instructors to index taped lectures, to annotate video, and to provide hyperlinks to background information alluded to in the lecture. This project will piggyback on an existing research project to develop a low cost scalable video server and will provide a “real life” application to test the server.
