However, various applications and media formats may have different quality evaluation criteria and control parameters. For example, scalability and interactivity are very crucial performance metrics for 3D graphics scene model representation and delivery, while they may not be that important for some other multimedia applications. Thus, there is a strong impetus to develop new quality evaluation methodologies for various media formats under different multimedia application scenarios. Recently, cross-layer design has become a popular design methodology for enhancing Quality-of-Service (QoS) over various multimedia communications systems. However, most existing cross-layer designs for QoS provisioning in multimedia communications are mainly focused on improving network-oriented QoS such as throughput, delay, and jitter, while the multimedia application-oriented QoS have not been fully considered in the existing cross-layer design optimization. Therefore, quality-driven multimedia communications need to be extensively investigated under various communications scenarios involving audio, video, VoIP, image, and/or graphics. Under such a background, it is very important to highlight the importance of quality-driven cross-layer design as one of the enabling technologies for the next-generation quality-aware service-oriented multimedia networks. The aim of this special issue is to bring together the state-of-the-art research contributions that address the various aspects of quality-driven cross-layer designs for multimedia communications. Original completed and unpublished works not currently under review by any other journal/magazine/conference are solicited. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: User perceptual quality enhancement methodology Media quality measurements for communications applications Optimized 3D graphics scene representation and transmissions Optimized image/video representation and transmissions Optimized audio/speech coding and transmissions Content-aware cross-layer design and optimization Scalability and mobility issues in cross-layer design Quality-driven cross-layer design architecture Quality-driven resource management, scheduling, and admission control Quality-driven cross-layer MAC and routing protocols Cross-layer protocol stacks for quality support Performance evaluation of quality-driven cross-layer system design Standardization issues related to quality-driven cross-layer design Cross-layer design for P2P streaming Cross-layer design for multimedia sensor networks *Submission Procedure: * Authors should prepare manuscripts according to the Information for Authors as published at www.ieee.org/organizations/society/sp/tmm/infotmm.html.

Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of the cfp. ************************ 2nd CALL FOR PAPERS ************************ IWSOS 2008 3rd International Workshop on Self-Organizing Systems - Self-Organizing Networks and Networked Systems - December 10-12, 2008 Vienna, Austria http://iwsos.ani.univie.ac.at/ Submission deadline (full papers): June 22, 2008 ********************************************************************* Workshop Scope -------------- IWSOS 2008 is the third workshop in a series of annual workshops dedicated to self-organization in networks and networked systems. The necessity for and expected benefit of self-organization is caused by the growing scale, complexity, and heterogeneity of future networked systems, like the future Internet. For example, these networks will consist of interconnected infrastructure-based, mobile ad-hoc, and sensor networks that could be spontaneously deployed in hostile environments, have a dynamic population and a potentially short life time. In spite of this, there will be stringent user requirements, such as resilience and real-time guarantees. Although self-organization is desirable for these kinds of networks, it is not yet clear to what extent self-organization can be exploited. Research into networked systems has recently started to systematically investigate self-organization, which has lead to a multitude of open research issues. The applicability of well-known self-organizing techniques to specific networks and networked systems has to be investigated, as well as adaptations and novel approaches inspired by, e.g., cooperation in nature and evolutionary dynamics, sociology, and game theory. Additionally, models originating from areas like feedback control and complex system's research, are required for these networked systems in order to analyze their controllability and emergent behavior. Aspects of engineering self-organizing networked systems should be studied that discuss paradigms like programmable networks, and tools and frameworks for deploying, testing, and monitoring self-organizing networks. The role of self-organization in the future Internet and the impact on its architecture is an important topic, as well as the application of self-organization in future intelligent transportation systems and vehicular ad-hoc networks. Building on the success of its predecessors, this workshop aims at bringing together leading international researchers to create a visionary forum for investigating the potential of self-organization for networked systems by including the following key topics (not a restricted list): * Self-organization and self-management * Self-configuration and self-optimization * Self-protection, -diagnosis, and -healing * Autonomic networking principles and practice * Control theory based models and approaches of self-organization * Feedback control in networked systems * Group-forming networks and techniques * Programmable and cognitive networks for self-organization * Visualization of network system state * Inspiring models of self-organization in nature and society (e.g., bio-inspired or based on game theory) * Risks in self-organization and risk management techniques * The (un-)controllability of self-organizing emergent systems * Quality of Service / service level agreements and self-organization * Resilience, robustness, and fault tolerance for networked systems * Security in self-organizing networked systems * Self-* sensor and ad-hoc networks * Self-* techniques in peer-to-peer networks * Self-organization of over- and underlays and in cross-layering * Self-* networks and networked systems for ubiquitous computing * Self-organization in heterogeneous network convergence * Evolutionary principles of the (future, emerging) Internet * Self-configuring place-and-play mobile networks * Self-organizing vehicular ad-hoc networks * Self-organizing multi-service networks and multi-network services * Methods for configuration and management of large, complex networks * Applications, e.g. the self-organizing home network * The human in the loop of self-organizing networked systems Important Dates --------------- * Paper submission deadline (full papers): June 22, 2008 * Notification of acceptance (full papers): September 1, 2008 Initial Submission (full papers) -------------------------------- IWSOS invites submission of manuscripts that present original research results, and that have not been previously published or are currently under review by another conference or journal. Any previous or simultaneous publication of related material should be explicitly noted in the submission. Submissions should be full-length papers up to 10 pages using the LNCS style, including all figures and references, and must include an abstract of 100 - 150 words.
