Synopsis

This book explores the innovative multimedia network, a system that combines point-to-point message passing and multiaccess channels. The author presents new algorithms designed specifically for this network, demonstrating their efficient partitioning, global sensitive function computation, and minimum spanning tree construction capabilities. These groundbreaking techniques offer a balanced approach, leveraging both the parallelism of the point-to-point network and the broadcast functionality of the multiaccess channel. The book also examines the power of the multimedia network in comparison to its separate components, establishing its superiority for certain computations. Overall, this book significantly advances our understanding of network models and provides valuable insights for researchers and practitioners seeking to harness the potential of multimedia networks.
