More Information
Summary:A determinate spatiotemporal layout specification (20) automatically is generated in accordance with a relative spatiotemporal layout specification (14). The relative spatiotemporal layout specification (14) describes relative spatial positions and temporal order of media object types. The determinate spatiotemporal layout specification (20) describes a layout of media objects (18) in a display area (46) over time. The process of generating the determinate spatiotemporal layout specification (20) includes determining for each of the media objects (18) a respective spatiotemporal slot corresponding to a respective window in the display area (46) over a respective rendering period in which the media object (18) is scheduled to be rendered. The determinate spatiotemporal layout specification (20) is outputted.
