中国多媒体技术研究:1999

As one of a serial of reports, this paper is a survey on multimedia researches and applications in China, 1999. Since multimedia is a cross research area, papers about multimedia technology are distributed on various journals. We saw about 2 764 papers published on 11 Chinese journals in 1999, from which we selected 369 ones on multimedia technology and made analyses on them, and the classified data were compared with which of last year. Looking into the data we can see that researchers in China pay more and more attention at human computer interaction, multimedia data retrieval technology and distributed multimedia supporting technology, which are also the international evolution trends in a quite long period. We present here an overview on the progress in multimedia technology in China, 1999. This will be convenient for researchers looking up reference, and helpful for editors compiling journals and for authors contributing papers.
