Abstract :
INADA is a new database programming language under development at Kyushu University. INADA can create and manipulate C++ objects stored in a database (persistent object). The key idea of INADA is the introduction of distributed shared virtual memory. We propose multimedia applications using distributed shared virtual memory. We introduce stream heap for time-based media, and global heap for non time-based media. To test our idea we implemented two prototype multimedia applications, white board and telephone using INADA
