Shot Boundary Task Comparison Program Installation and Run
----------------------------------------------------------

0-Purpose

Used for TREC Video Track's shot boundary detection task, this
program compares the system results to the shot boundary reference.

1-System Requirements

This program requires :
	- JDK 1.1.8 or later (including any version of Java 2 : http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/)
	- JAXP 1.1 or later (http://java.sun.com/xml/xml_jaxp.html)

2-Installation

1. Download the tar file
2. Untar the file

The content of tar file should be : this Readme.txt, some .class
files, the reference in the Reference directory, a System directory,
and ComparisonResult directory.

3-Run

Run it using the following command :
	java ComparisonManager [anySBFile.xml] -notype 

PLEASE ALWAYS USE THE -notype option to get the same type of results
as the one used in TREC. This option permits to conpare CUT with other
gradual transitions.  

Make sure that all required DTD's (that are in the tar file) are not
removed from their location in some of the directories before runnig
the programs.

The output will be in a directory corresponding to the system ID in
the ComparisonResult directory (and also in a shift0 directory but
without any meaning for this one).
