Definition:Multimedia data needs to be protected from unauthorized duplication and consumption, from unauthorized disclosure and misuse, and from unauthorized use and exploitation.
Introduction
Multimedia can be defined as a combination of different types of media (e.g., text, images, audio, video, and graphics) to communicate information in a given application.
Recent advances in digital technologies have drastically increased the capacity of both data channels and storage:
When compare with floppy disks and CDs, the capacity of DVDs, digital tapes, and hard disk is much larger. Personal computers can be configured with a processor speed of 3 GHz, main memory of 2 GB, and a hard disk of 500GB. DVDs manufactured with a double sided format, each side having a dual layer, have a data capacity of 17GB. Digital Linear Tapes (DTLs) come with a storage space above 200GB for compressed data.
Asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) is a new technology that allows more data to be sent over...
