  • Sape J. Mullender (Director of Huygens Project): "The Unix operating system made a vital contribution to information technology by introducing the notion of composing complicated applications out of simple ones by means of pipes and shell scripts. One day, this will also be possible with multimedia applications. Before this can happen, however, operating systems must support multimedia in as general a way as Unix now supports `ordinary' applications. Particularly, attention must be paid to allowing the operating-system service to degrade gracefully under heavy loads." In Quality of Service in Distributed Multimedia Systems.
