Dealing with Resource Requirement in Multimedia Document Consistency Verification

The paper proposes to revisit the concept of multimedia document consistency. Within this context, numerous works have addressed approaches for the temporal consistency verification of such documents, especially those that are encoded using the SMIL language, but to our best knowledge, no one has proposed to handle the resource conflict issue and its impact on both multimedia presentation quality and consistency. Therefore, we propose to work out this issue by taking into account the resource needs when carrying out the consistency verification. Hence, a new paradigm called “ qualitative consistency ” is defined improving the previous concepts already defined for this topic.
