A real-time system is defined as a system that is required to satisfy a set of timing constraints as well as ensure the semantic correctness of the system. For example, in image processing that involves screen updating for viewing continuous motion, deadlines are of the order of 30 ms. In this case, response time is defined as the time between input and the corresponding display. Although often it is desirable that the system be fast, real-time systems differ from non-real-time systems in requiring timely behavior and predictability (Halang and Stoyenko, 1991). In practice, there are many imaging applications that are time-critical and computationally intensive (e.g., satellite image-data processing and target tracking). Also, many image processing applications lend themselves to parallelization and hence parallel architectures. The following requirements for a telegeoprocessing system have been compiled based on the experiences described above. Depending on the specific application, multimedia systems for telegeoprocessing will require different combinations of the hardware and/or software components described under each of the following categories.
