Abstract :
The interactive multimedia application must handle the different kinds of events as well as user interaction, duration, and start and finish of a medium. We present a method for modelling these events with object technology. The scenario that comprises the multimedia application is described in terms of event, condition and action expressions. The conceptual model is specified as a Petri net. The Petri net supports the action expressions that are triggered by the events if the conditions are respected. Then the Petri net permits the simulation and interpretation of the scenario. This object model is compared to the existing standard framework MHEG
