Video data management over the Web is fast becoming one of the seminal topics for modern multimedia information systems. In this chapter we present an architecture of a multi-paradigm video querying system, along with its Web-based mechanisms that can offer a number of important features. To address the practical factors and concerns (such as resource cost and/or intellectual property concerns), video descriptions are separated from the raw/source video files. For better accessibility and interoperability, we adopt XML technology to make our system standard compatible (or XML-powered). In particular, the video description is extracted from the underlying storage (OODB) system, and the query result is sent back to the client as XML data description. As a result, our system can provide an efficient query server and support heavyweight clients. A prototype system manifesting these features has been developed based on OMG-CORBA and an object-oriented database engine.
