|
For research into multimedia development practices to
progress, the actual processes and activities performed
need to be recorded and compared. For accurate
comparison, some agreed means of describing the
material is needed. In other fields such as botany and
zoology, taxonomies are constructed to facilitate such
recording and comparison.
This paper draws on the published literature on
multimedia to obtain appropriate terms, and then
constructs a taxonomy using traditional techniques, in
particular, faceting. We compare our results with existing
taxonomies and argue that the latters focus on aesthetics
is not suitable for research into process and estimating
issues. Finally, we discuss the use of the taxonomy as a
basis for comparing multimedia projects, and as a basis
for identifying the critical factors in multimedia project
development. This will be used to support the development
of improved process and estimating models.
