-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [MM-INTEREST] ACM EMME 2007 CfP Datum: Wed, 9 May 2007 08:46:20 -0400 Von: Wolfgang Huerst <huerst(a)INFORMATIK.UNI-FREIBURG.DE> Antwort an: Wolfgang Huerst <huerst(a)INFORMATIK.UNI-FREIBURG.DE> An: MM-INTEREST(a)LISTSERV.ACM.ORG Our apologies if you have received multiple copies. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ACM Workshop on Educational Multimedia and Multimedia Education (EMME 2007) September 28, 2007, Augsburg, Germany (in conjunction with ACM Multimedia 2007) http://emme2007.informatik.uni-freiburg.de ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS Advances in multimedia capture, analysis and delivery, combined with the rapid adoption of broadband communication, have resulted in multimedia teaching systems that have advanced traditional forms of education. Research in these areas has achieved impressive results in the last few years and many actual working systems and commercial products are now routinely used by a growing number of people. However, the various web sites and lecture videos produced as part of the "e-learning hype" generally do not exploit the full potential of multimedia. The question about how multimedia can really make learning more exploratory and enjoyable is as yet unanswered, and we are just beginning to understand the real contribution of multimedia to education. In addition, new trends in multimedia technology, such as multimedia on handheld devices or advanced approaches for the automatic analysis of multimodal signals, offer novel and exciting opportunities for teaching and learning. The growing pervasiveness of multimedia on any computing device also increases the relevance of knowledge about multimedia for computer scientists and software engineers. However, the significance of multimedia for the future of computing is generally not reflected in current curricula. For example, few universities offer dedicated courses and multimedia is often only taught as part of other courses such as computer graphics or machine learning. In addition, multimedia is a very active and rapidly changing field. New and emerging technologies can not only influence how we teach but also have an impact on what we should teach. The goal of this workshop is to identify current and evolving trends, specify open problems, and discover challenges and prospects for new research in the broad topic of multimedia-based education. By bringing together researchers working on educational multimedia with multimedia educators, we want to establish an open discussion on these issues and create a reference for future research in this area. In particular, we invite submissions in one of the following areas: -> MULTIMEDIA EDUCATION, i.e. submissions which identify key issues and best practices for teaching multimedia and look into the future of multimedia education. -> EDUCATIONAL MULTIMEDIA APPLICATIONS, i.e. work on educational multimedia systems and applications that promote learning. -> EMERGING TRENDS, i.e. papers on novel technologies and emerging trends in computing that offer new and exciting possibilities for the production and usage of multimedia learning material. We explicitly encourage researchers from other communities who are also working with multimedia data and multimodal signals to contribute to this workshop by submitting their research related to educational multimedia material and applications. In addition, any contribution from an emerging field dealing with education and new media is welcome. Further potential areas of interest include, among them, gaming and learning, human-centered computing, and ubiquitous computing. Information about submissions (up to 10 pages in ACM style, shorter submissions are welcome as well) are available on the workshops web site (see URL below). Selected papers will be invited for publication in a related journal. Workshop Chairs Gerald Friedland, ICSI, Berkeley, CA, USA Wolfgang Hürst, Albert-Ludwigs-University Freiburg, Germany Lars Knipping, Berlin University of Technology, Germany Important Dates Deadline: June 1, 2007 Notification: July 9, 2007 Final Version: July 23, 2007 Further information & submission instructions at http://emme2007.informatik.uni-freiburg.de

Based on short- to medium-range communication systems (vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-roadside), vehicular ad hoc networks will enable vehicular safety applications (including collision and other safety warnings) as well as non-safety applications (like real-time traffic congestion and routing information, high-speed tolling, mobile infotainment, and many others). The creation of high-performance, highly reliable, highly scalable, and secure VANET technologies presents an extraordinary challenge for the wireless research community. A high degree of communication reliability is needed under unfavorable conditions. Clearly, the specificity of vehicular ad hoc networks in terms of mobility behavior and applications scenarios and requirements makes VANET research an exciting and demanding application- and purpose-driven sub-discipline of wireless networking. Following the successes of VANET 2004 held in Philadelphia, VANET 2005 held in Cologne, Germany, and VANET 2006 in Los Angeles, CA, the Fourth ACM International Workshop on Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANET) will be held in Montréal, QC, Canada September 14, 2007, in conjunction with MobiCom 2007. Authors are invited to submit papers presenting new research related to the theory or practice of vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET). All submissions must describe original research, not published or currently under review for another workshop, conference, or journal. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: - Safety and non-safety applications - Roadside-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-vehicle communication - Communication protocol design - Channel modeling - Modulation and coding - Power control and scalability issues - Multi-channel organization and operation - Security issues and countermeasures - Privacy issues - Network management - Simulation frameworks & real-world testbeds VANET present a highly active field of research, development, standardization and field trials. Throughout the world, there are many national/international projects in government, industry, and academia devoted to VANET. These include the consortia like Vehicle Safety Consortium (US), Car-2-Car Communication Consortium (Europe) and Advanced Safety Vehicle Program (Japan), standardization efforts like IEEE 802.11p (WAVE), and field trials like the large-scale Vehicle Infrastructure Integration Program (VII) in the US. Submission Instructions All paper submissions will be handled electronically. Papers must be in PDF format, no longer than 10 pages (single- or double-column), in font no smaller than 11 points, and must fit properly on US Letter-sized paper (8.5 inch x 11 inch) with reasonable margins. Submitted papers will be judged based on their quality through a double-blind review process, where the identities of the authors are withheld from the reviewers. Detailed instructions for paper submission will be posted on the VANET 2007 web page at: http://www.sigmobile.org/workshops/vanet2007/.

R. Kumar, and Prof. Kang G. Shin ========================================================================== ****** Paper Submission Deadline Extended to: May 15, 2007 ****** ----- Scope ----- Recent advances in the wireless communications and networking technologies will significantly impact the design of automobiles to make automobile operations safer and more efficient, and thereby, result in significant progress in the evolution of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). The Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) band has been allocated in the USA at 5.9 GHz for vehicle-to- roadside (V2R) and vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications, while the IEEE 802.11p working group is developing enhancements of 802.11 standards to support ITS, vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs), vehicular telematics, and infotainment applications. It is anticipated that a single wireless access technology may not suit the needs of all vehicular communication applications, and a heterogeneous wireless networking platform needs to be developed and optimized. Numerous exciting research challenges exist for designing wireless networking protocols for vehicular communication applications. Significant advancements in these research areas are expected in near future. The objectives of this workshop are to discuss the challenges in designing wireless networking protocols for vehicular networks and ITS, different ITS applications and services based on wireless communications and networking technologies, and present the recent advances in these areas. With the objective and a very timely topic, the workshop is expected to attract lot of interest from the researchers in the area of wireless communication networks as well as from ITS designers and planners. The technical issues which will be addressed in this workshop include - Vehicular wireless communications applications and services for ITS - Vehicular telematics based on emerging wireless technologies - Multimedia content distribution in vehicular networks - Architectures for V2R communications - Heterogeneous wireless network architecture for V2V and V2R communications - Physical, medium access control , radio link, and routing protocols - Cross-layer wireless protocol analysis, design, and optimization for vehicular networks - Cognitive radio protocols for vehicular networks - Security protocols for vehicular networks - Privacy issues in vehicular networks - Vehicular network management - Performance modeling and simulation - Field experiments and test-bed results Accepted papers will be published in the ACM International Conference Proceedings Series and will be made available in ACM Digital Library, as well as indexed by EI and ISI Index. ---------------- Paper Submission ---------------- Manuscripts which present original materials not previously published in, or currently under review by, another conference or journal, are invited.
