N2 - This paper tries to answer the question, how are multimedia systems being developed in practice? Herein are reported the findings of a preliminary postal survey of the top 1,000 companiesfrom general industry and the principal 100 companies from the multimedia industry in Ireland, which reveal that there is no uniform approach to multimedia systems development and that approaches prescribed by the literature are not being used in practice. Nonetheless, the findings are clear that practitioners are favorably inclined toward the use of systematic methods and techniques for multimedia development. This survey paves the way for more detailed and insightful qualitative research into development practices.
