Abstract
The objective of the following research is to investigate the
problem of information management and conveyed experience on the
World Wide Web (WWW) when multi-modal sensors and media are
available. After studying related areas of work about the web and
heterogeneous media, it became apparent that one of the main
challenges of the area is the semantic unification of
heterogeneous media. This thesis will introduce an
event-based model to semantically unify media. An event is
defined as something of significance that takes place at a given
time and location. Using this definition and the corresponding
model, a system will be designed to illustrate practical use cases
for events.
