Popis: Along with the tremendous growth of Social Media, the variety of multimedia sharing platforms on the Web is ever growing, whereas unified retrieval issues remain unsolved. Beside unified retrieval languages and metadata interoperability issues, a crucial task in such a retrieval environment is query optimization in federated and distributed retrieval scenarios. This work introduces three different dimensions of query optimization that have been integrated in an external multimedia meta-search engine. The main innovations are query execution planning, various query processing strategies as well as a multimedia perceptual caching system.
