abstract = "The explosion of multimedia digital content and the
development of technologies that go beyond traditional
broadcast and TV have rendered access to such
content important for all end-users of these technologies.
While originally developed for providing access
to multimedia digital libraries, video search technologies
assume now a more demanding role. In this paper,
we attempt to shed light onto this new role of video
search technologies, looking at the rapid developments
in the related market, the lessons learned from state
of art video search prototypes developed mainly in
the digital libraries context and the new technological
challenges that have risen. We focus on one of
the latter, i.e., the development of cross-media decision
mechanisms, drawing examples from REVEAL
THIS, an FP6 project on the retrieval of video and language
for the home user. We argue, that efficient video
search holds a key to the usability of the new “pervasive
digital video” technologies and that it should
involve cross-media decision mechanisms."
