In addition, it introduces Macromedia Flash remoting as a client for web services and the requirements and standards for web audio/video streaming. This unit extends the material presented in FIT1012 Website authoring and provides knowledge and skills which the student can apply within their third year studio project/s (FIT3039/3040).

    Synopsis (29 Oct 2009, 6:14pm)

    This unit extends the website authoring concepts taught in FIT1012 by looking at more advanced techniques which are available to web site developers in publishing rich media/multimedia content. The structure of an XML document is investigated and the manner in which such a document can be converted to HTML or other formats. Synchronized Multimedia Integration Language (SMIL), a form of XML, will be investigated as a technique for authoring interactive audiovisual presentations. In addition the unit introduces Macromedia Flash remoting as a client for web services, php's multimedia capabilities and the requirements/standards for web audio/video streaming.
