The proposed research will attempt to provide the necessary conceptual tools (languages and architectures) that will allow signal representation to bridge the gap between bits - the traditional unit of information of signal processing and compression researchers - and objects - the traditional unit of information for softwaredevelopers and programmers; develop the software tools that will allow integration of media data to modern software applications with minimal or no additional effort by the part of the programmer and develop undergraduate and graduate courses that will be offered to both Electrical Engineering and Computer Science students, providing an integrated approach that will allow object-oriented and bit-oriented principles of data representation to become combined.As a result, a fundamental barrier in the educational background of Electrical Engineers and Computer Scientists will be eliminated, opening up a wider range of possibilities for the development of media-oriented applications.

拟议的研究将试图提供必要的概念工具（语言和架构），这将允许信号表示弥合比特（信号处理和压缩研究人员的传统信息单位）与对象（软件开发人员和程序员的传统信息单位）之间的差距;开发软件工具，使媒体数据集成到现代软件应用程序中，程序员只需付出最小的努力或不付出额外的努力，并开发将提供的本科生和研究生课程为电气工程和计算机科学专业的学生提供了一种集成的方法，将面向对象和面向位的数据表示原则结合起来。因此，电气工程师和计算机科学家的教育背景中的一个基本障碍将被消除，为面向媒体的应用程序的开发开辟了更广泛的可能性。
