INTERACTIVE MULTIMEDIA EXCHANGE ARCHITECTURE AND SERVICES

摘要

A multimedia exchange server adapted to communicate multimedia information includes a multimedia gateway adapted to receive a first media from a first network and transmit a second media to a second network. The multimedia exchange server also includes a processor coupled to the multimedia gateway and adapted to provide the second media. The multimedia exchange server further includes a memory coupled to the processor and adapted to store the first media. The first media is stored in the memory for a predetermined period of time, which is greater than a buffering period.
