Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 資訊科學學系 === 83 === Coupled with the lower cost in computer hardware, network, and large storage device capacities, the services which support continuous media will be fast becoming the next-generation home entertainment. In order to offer users an easy way to access these servers, it is important to support an efficient, convenient user interface. In this thesis, we design the Ka-La OK on Demand (KOD) system which provides users the Ka-La OK entertainment. The KOD system is based on client/server environment. In the client end, we implement an easy-to-use graphical user interface based on Microsoft Windows and provide the users an access method to get the required songs. In the server end, we establish a database on UNIX-based system to maintain the metadata. The metadata consists of titles of songs, pictures of singers, personal information, hit parade, etc. Users can use these information to select his required song.
