Abstract
The paper presents the system Telesession Designer and Transmitter for computer supported creation of interactive multimedia telepresentations of training session and the event based control system for telepresentation execution in an open and distributed environment. We propose a way of unifying these different objects into one standardized format, based on MHEG-Standard. Thus we call these objects dynamic multimedia documents. The presentation's objects will be stored in a distributed database, which elements (multimedia objects) can be stored somewhere in the open environment. An intelligent navigation system allows selection and preview of these objects from all over the world. The presentation is modelled in form of an event depending graph, representing the general flow of the education session. The final result - the telepresentation - will run in a both i.e. the peer to peer and the client/server environment.
