-------- Original Message -------- Subject: INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON MULTIMEDIA OVER WIRELESS(ISMW'06) Date: Tue, 15 Nov 2005 12:50:16 -0600 (CST) From: jqchen(a)dimitra.ece.northwestern.edu (Junqing Chen) To: multicomm(a)comsoc.org ** Aplogies for multiple copies of this message ** ************************ CALL FOR PAPERS ************************ SECOND INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON MULTIMEDIA OVER WIRELESS (in conjunction with IWCMC 2006) Sheraton Wall Centre, Vancouver, Canada July 3-6, 2006 http://www.ece.northwestern.edu/~haohong/ismw2006/index.html The rapid growth in interactive multimedia applications, such as video telephonies, video games and TV broadcasting has resulted in spectacular strides in the progress of wireless communication systems. The current third generation (3G) wireless systems and the next generation (4G) wireless systems in planning support higher bit rates. However, the high error rates and stringent delay constraints in wireless systems are still significant obstacles for these applications and services. On the other hand, the development of more advanced wireless systems provides opportunities for proposing novel wireless multimedia protocols and new applications and services that can take the maximum advantage of the systems. The symposium aims to provide an excellent forum for all experts working in these areas to join together and to discuss various important issues on multimedia over wireless. The timing of this symposium is set such that the ideas that come out of it can affect the evolution of 4G. The papers submitted to this symposium should focus on the state-of-the-art research in various important areas related to emerging technologies and standards on the coding and transmission of multimedia information over wireless networks. We solicit papers covering a variety of topics that include, but not limited to the following subjects: Advanced multimedia coding algorithms Error resilient and error concealment Video quality assessment Rate control for wireless video Scalable and multiple description multimedia coding and transmission Joint source-channel coding Efficient transport protocols for wireless Optimal resource allocation for energy-efficient wireless multimedia Cross-layer multimedia communication system design and optimization Proxy-based systems for video transcoding and content distribution Lightweight video encoding methods based on distributed source coding Quality of Service issues Multimedia processing for wireless sensor networks Wireless multimedia traffic modeling Only original and unpublished paper will be considered. Prospective authors are invited to submit papers of no more than six (6) pages in double-column IEEE format before December 15, 2005. ** Important dates ** Manuscript Submission: December 15, 2005 Acceptance Notification: April 15, 2006 Camera-Ready Papers Due: May 30, 2006 Conference Date: July 3, 2006 ** Organizing Committee ** Co-Chairs: Haohong Wang, Qualcomm Inc., USA Pascal Frossard, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology,Switzerland Vice-Chairs: Chingyao Huang, National Chiao Tung Univeristy, Taiwan Z.

MobiSys, like most conferences and journals, requires that papers must not be submitted simultaneously to any other conference or publication, that submissions must not be previously published, and that accepted papers must not be subsequently published elsewhere. Papers accompanied by nondisclosure agreement forms are not acceptable and will be returned to the author(s) unread. As customary with the scientific peer review process, submissions will be handled as confidential material during the review. Submissions are due Monday, November 28, 2005, 23:59 EST. This is a hard deadline, and no extensions will be granted. The submission process is electronic. All submissions must be in PDF format. See the conference web page for detailed instructions. Poster and Demo Sessions Do you have interesting work you would like to share, or a great idea that is not quite ready to be published? Poster sessions are for you! The poster sessions introduce new or ongoing work. Demos of working systems and applications are also encouraged. The MobiSys audience will provide valuable discussion and feedback. We are particularly interested in presentations of student work. See the conference web page for submission details. Workshops The ACM MobiSys 2006 conference will host a day of workshops on technical areas related to mobile systems, applications and services.
