Abstract :
We propose a temporal reasoning engine uses an algebraic system to analyze temporal relations from multimedia documents. The synchronization models are generalized by composing point temporal relations with qualitative and quantitative functions. We also construct an automatic reasoning framework in which to help user design presentation more easily. Temporal semantics can be extracted from the solutions. Authors could easily describe the temporal behavior of multimedia presentation associate hyperlinks with media object over Internet.
