The multi-processor system according to the present invention includes at least two processors, a system bus providing communication between the responses to commands on the system bus. The interface module is implemented in, for example, a sensor pack and multiplexed to a plurality of sensor modules. The database definition for the hierarchical database is read and then a logical processing map is built utilizing at least the global directive, the set of segment directives and the database definition. The management information indicates a playback control of the AVClip that is to be played back when the Java\u2122 application is executed.
