This is with regard to multimedia database management systems.
I intend to develop a multiple transactional store for the storage
of multimedia objects. Basically I  would be extending an existing
object-oriented DBMS to incorporate multimedia features. The existing system
does not have a storage manager of its own, it utilises the storage
manager of a relational DBMS (ingres). Infact the system has been
interfaced to the Unix file system and EXODUS storage manager. Now my
objective is to have decomposed multimedia object handling utilising
the interfaces to the storage managers. The idea is to decompose the
multimedia object into components such as image, text  and store these
components in storages better suited to them. This kind of storage
reduces redundancies which is crucial in multimedia information
mangement 

My question is has this kind of decomposed multimedia object handling
been done before, if so could you please give any references in the
literature . I would appreciate if you could give me any suggestions
or ideas in this regard.

thanks in advance
