Abstract
An intelligent system for the efficient selection and allocation of the various types of resources available in a multimedia environment. The system interrelates a combination of user input parameters with the resident hardware and software parameters of the requesting multimedia resources by grouping into common computing needs. In addition to traditionally known hardware/software parameters the system recognizes specific limitations of resources which would effect a proper multimedia presentation to the end user. The system uses an internal graph structure to interrelate the various resources as they are allocated to proved for an intelligent data flow.
