Abstract

A management system for a rich media environment that enables relatively large numbers of sensing and rendering components to be marshaled for a variety of tasks and services. A management system according to the present teachings includes a service manager 400 that provides a communication service pertaining to the rich media environment by coordinating a set of tasks in the rich media environment and further includes a task manager 402 that manages each task by allocating a set of processing resources and communication resources to each task and performing each task in response to a request for each task from the service manager 400.
