Abstract
In this paper we present a platform for delivering multimedia presentations on cultural heritage. The platform aims to enhance cultural knowledge discovery by increasing access to museums´ digital content. The platform generates rich media presentations considering the personal profile of the audience as well as its interests. The presentations may include text, images, video and sound and can be delivered via network. They can be attended either inside the museum or even outside of it e.g. in schools during a preparation class prior to a museum visit. The platform supports creation and editing of slides and presentations, updating existing presentations and projecting them, considering different roles and access levels for archeologists, tourist guides, educators and individuals.
