Introduction

Information technology is currently undergoing a transition towards object-oriented and multimedia technologies. Progress in these areas would change existing methodologies in information technology. With developments in multimedia technologies, especially in the Multimedia Super Corridor(MSC), new tools and methodologies needs to be created and evaluated.

This centre aims to focus on research and development in these emerging technologies through collaboration with industry and government agencies.For the MSC, development of software and multimedia technology is important to support the flagship applications. New software development methodologies and better multimedia tools would increase productivity and enhance the quality of the software and multimedia products that will be produced in the MSC.

The Centre for Multimedia Computing is established to spearhead research and innovation work in the application of multimedia tools. The technologies and methodologies investigated will form the basis for new software and multimedia products, as well as generate further research in leading edge technologies.
