“…High-level scripting languages such as VEML [5] and extensions to content description standards such BDL [6] have been proposed. High-level languages may simplify the process of designing complex interactions, but even most high-level scripts become complicated when they are used for preparing complex 3D content.…”

A novel approach to modeling and dynamic composition of behavior-rich interactive VR content is presented. The approach, called Beh-VR, enables dynamic generation of virtual scenes from arbitrarily selected sets of specifically designed reusable virtual objects, called VR-Beans. Presentation and behavior of the objects in virtual scenes is determined by associated scripts encoded in a high-level language called VR-BML. VR-Beans are compatible with existing scene description standards such as VRML/X3D, but are designed according to specific rules enabling the use of these objects in dynamically generated scenes. Further, to simplify the design of complex interactive VR scenes, VR content patterns are used.

“…Multi-thread composite events are defined as a number of single-thread events with temporal/spatial/logical relationships, possibly involving multiple actors. Two formal languages are developed: VERL [165] to describe the ontology of events, and VEML [166] to annotate instances of the events described in VERL.…”

Technological advances in sensor manufacture, communication, and computing are stimulating the development of new applications that are transforming traditional vision systems into pervasive intelligent camera networks. The analysis of visual cues in multi-camera networks enables a wide range of applications, from smart home and office automation to large area surveillance and traffic surveillance.While dense camera networks -in which most cameras have large overlapping fields of view -are well studied, we are mainly concerned with sparse camera networks. A sparse camera network undertakes large area surveillance using as few cameras as possible, and most cameras have non-overlapping fields of view with one another. The task is challenging due to the lack of knowledge about the topological structure of the network, variations in the appearance and motion of specific tracking targets in different views, and the difficulties of understanding composite events in the network. In this review paper, we present a comprehensive survey of recent research results to address the problems of intra-camera tracking, topological structure learning, target appearance modeling, and global activity understanding in sparse camera networks. A number of current open research issues are discussed.
