Abstract
The Washington University MultiMedia eXplorer (MMX) is a complete,
host-independent multimedia system capable of transmitting and receiving
JPEG-compressed video, CD-quality audio, and high-resolution
radiographic images over the Washington University broadband ATM
network. If the host is equipped with an ATM interface card, normal
network traffic can be supported via an ATM extension port on the MMX.
The major components of the MMX are an ATMizer and three multimedia
channels. The ATMizer implements the host interface, the interface to
the ATM network, and the interface to the three multimedia channels.
This paper describes the architecture of the MMX, the software used with
the system, and two applications that have been developed to demonstrate
the capability of broadband ATM networks for multimedia applications
