The proposal aims to partially support a short-term collaboration of UK specialists for video analysis (the Multimedia and Information Systems group of the Knowledge Media Institute, The Open University, UK) with the researchers who masterminded, created and constantly advance the world's leading open source Digital Library toolkit, Greenstone.Digital Libraries toolkits provide the ability to create collections of digital content, to display the content in a web browser and to access and search the collections that have been built. They are especially relevant for organisations with much data of lasting significance, for example museums with cultural heritage, universities and schools with educational media, or UN agencies with humanitarian aid material. An increasing and increasingly relevant amount of documents is in form of videos, be it documentary films that form current cultural heritage, demonstrations for education or maintenance videos for wells.The collaboration has two principal tangible outputs in mind: i) the creation of a video digital libraries module for Greenstone that allows the effortless analysis, indexing, summarisation, story-board computation, searching, browsing and display of video in a cutting edge digital library environment; ii) a text book on multimedia information retrieval.Besides this, the collaboration aims at investigating multimedia digital libraries to greater depth while exploring current boundaries and challenges in that area, at training MMIS members in cutting-edge Digital Library technologies and at networking with related research groups in Australasia, the region where the Greenstone Digital Libraries team is located.

该提案旨在部分支持英国视频分析专家（英国开放大学知识媒体研究所多媒体和信息系统小组）与策划、创建并不断推进世界领先的开源数字图书馆工具包Greenstone的研究人员之间的短期合作。数字图书馆工具包提供了创建数字内容集合、在web浏览器中显示内容以及访问和搜索已构建的集合的能力。它们尤其适用于拥有大量具有持久意义的数据的组织，例如拥有文化遗产的博物馆、拥有教育媒体的大学和学校，或拥有人道主义援助材料的联合国机构。越来越多的相关文献以视频的形式出现，无论是构成当代文化遗产的纪录片，还是教育演示或水井维护视频。此次合作有两个主要的有形产出：i)为Greenstone创建一个视频数字图书馆模块，允许在尖端的数字图书馆环境中轻松分析、索引、摘要、故事板计算、搜索、浏览和显示视频；Ii)一本多媒体信息检索的教科书。除此之外，此次合作旨在更深入地研究多媒体数字图书馆，同时探索该领域的当前边界和挑战，培训MMIS成员掌握尖端数字图书馆技术，并与绿石数字图书馆团队所在的澳大拉西亚地区的相关研究小组建立联系。
