De modo complementar a tais implementações, o gateway multimídia também objetiva o fornecimento de recursos de qualidade de serviço (QoS) aos serviços por ele intermediados e que necessitem de tais recursos, tais como serviços multimídia de voz e vídeo, por exemplo. Os testes funcionais e de desempenho com o gateway multimídia, realizados em ambiente cabeado e sem fio, demonstram que sua implementação é válida e que não influência em modificações quanto ao perfil (características) dos tráfegos por ele intermediados, bem como à questões envolvendo erros, atrasos e variações de atrasos (jitter), dentre outras, demonstrando que sua implementação é transparente aos sistemas finais envolvidos no processo de comunicação intermediado por tal gateway multimídia. Seu ambiente de desenvolvimento e testes é baseado em soluções de software livre, fornecido, especialmente, pelo sistema operacional Linux e pela solução Netfilter/Iptables, disponibilizando uma plataforma aberta para o estudo e aprimoramento futuro quanto ao gateway multimídia. Por fim, espera-se que o gateway multimídia contribua como uma nova ferramenta para testes e análises de soluções voltadas às redes multimídia de modo geral / Abstract: This dissertation describes the implementation and functional validation of an IP-based multimedia gateway to the identification, classification and forwarding of different traffic flows (elastic and stream), both with pre-defined traffic profiles, from the ToS field of the IPv4 header and the TC field of the IPv6 header, taken as DSCP [RFC 2474] and ECN [RFC 3168]. The multimedia traffic corresponding to audio, voice, video and data services are provided by a multimedia traffic generator, which generates traffic according to given distributions. The multimedia gateway also aims at providing resources for quality of service (QoS) for services that require these resources, such as multimedia services for voice and video. The functional and performance testing with multimedia gateway, performed in a wired and wireless environment, demonstrates that its implementation is valid and not influence in changes in the traffic profile (characteristics) of the traffic intermediated by him, as well as issues involving errors, delays and variations in delay (jitter), among others, showing that its implementation is transparent to the end systems involved in the communication process intermediated by such multimedia gateway. It's development and testing environment is based on open source solutions, based on the Linux operating system and the Netfilter/Iptables solution, providing an open platform for future research and improvement of the multimedia gateway. Finally, it is expected that the multimedia gateway contributes as a new tool for testing and analysis of multimedia networks in general / Mestrado / Tecnologia e Inovação / Mestre em Tecnologia

For this project the program Walk with Dinosaurs was developed using Keller's Theory of Motivation. Walk with Dinosaurs is a interactive multimedia tool for presenting an integrated thematic unit. As a HyperCard stack, it intoduces students to factual information on dinosaurs in an appealing and motivating way.

This is a handbook of multimedia technology and multimedia production teaching strategies that include the following: lesson and unit plans, worksheets, with teacher directions and student instructions, interdisciplinary activities for use in secondary level classrooms, lists of useful reading material, and sources of supplies used in the described student multimedia activities.

To study a text, learners often engage in active reading. Through active reading, learners build an analysis by annotating, outlining, summarizing, reorganizing and synthesizing information. These strategies serve a fundamental meta-cognitive function that allows content to leave strong memory traces and helps learners reflect, understand, and recall information. Textbooks, however, are becoming more complex as new technologies change how they are designed and delivered. Interactive, touch-screen tablets offer multi-touch interaction, annotation features, and multimedia content as a browse-able book. Yet, such tablet textbooks-in spite of their increasing availability in educational settings-have received little empirical scrutiny regarding how they support and engender active reading. To address this issue, this dissertation reports on a series of studies designed to further our understanding of active reading with tablet textbooks. An exploratory study first examined strategies learners enact when reading and annotating in the tablet environment. Findings indicate learners are often distracted by touch screen mechanics, struggle to effectively annotate information delivered in audiovisuals, and labor to cognitively make connections between annotations and the content/media source from which they originated. These results inspired SMART Note, a suite of novel multimedia annotation tools for tablet textbooks designed to support active reading by: minimizing interaction mechanics during active reading, providing robust annotation for multimedia, and improving built-in study tools. The system was iteratively developed through several rounds of usability and user experience evaluation. A comparative experiment found that SMART Note outperformed tablet annotation features on the market in terms of supporting learning experience, process, and outcomes. Together these studies served to extend the active reading framework for tablet textbooks to: (a) recognize the tension between active reading and mechanical interaction; (b) provide designs that facilitate cognitive connections between annotations and media formats; and (c) offer opportunities for personalization and meaningful reorganization of learning material.
