C A L L F O R P A P E R S =============================
Fifth Workshop on multiMedia Applications over Wireless Networks (MediaWiN 2010) (http://mediaWiN.it.teithe.gr)
June 22nd, 2010 Riccione, Italy
organized in association with the Fourteenth IEEE Symposium on Computers and Communications (ISCC 2010) (http://www.ieee-iscc.org/2010) Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society and IEEE Communications Society Endorsed by the IEEE Technical Committee on Communications Systems Integration and Modeling (CSIM)
Contributions to MediaWiN 2010 should address the technical challenges arising from novel networking scenarios. Visionary, early-stage works that are rigorously presented and can steer discussion to new topics are particularly welcome. We are actively encouraging researchers to share their views, research proposals and solutions for multimedia applications over wireless networks.
Since the first workshop edition in 2006, the proliferation of wireless access technologies and multimedia applications over IP networks is leading to a growing interest in the convergence between wireless networks and multimedia applications. However, the strict requirements of multimedia applications, the unreliability of wireless media and the cost of wireless resources make this convergence very challenging. MediaWiN 2010 offers the opportunity to leading researchers, industry professionals, and academics around the world to meet, present their work, and discuss the latest advances about multimedia services over wireless technology.
All accepted papers will be included in the ISCC 2010 Proceedings, will be available on IEEE Xplore, and will be professionally indexed by the IEEE Computer Society's Conference Publishing Service. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:
* Multimedia delivery over heterogeneous networks (3G, 4G, ad hoc, multi-hop wireless, peer-to-peer, and hybrid networks) * Multimedia over Cognitive Radio Networks * Multimedia delivery for Vehicular Networks * Error Resilience and Concealment * Wireless Multimedia Traffic Modeling * Wireless Multimedia Devices and Services * Multimedia Applications and Protocols over Wireless Networks * Experimentation: Testbeds, Field Trials and Empirical Evaluations, Measurement Studies * Emerging Standards, Technologies and Novel Paradigms for Wireless Multimedia
Important Dates Submission of research papers due: 28 February 2010 Notification of paper acceptance: 13 March 2010 Submission of camera-ready papers: 13 April 2010 Workshop date: 22 June 2010
Paper submission Papers should be written in English. Manuscripts should not exceed 6 pages in the IEEE proceedings style, including all figures, tables and references, and must be submitted by February 28 2010 using EDAS (http://edas.info/N8641). Papers meeting these requirements will be peer-reviewed by at least three independent reviewers, including a TPC member. Papers must present original and unpublished work and should not be currently under review by any other conference or journal. To submit a paper, please follow the instructions on the workshop Web site.
The Workshop Proceedings will be part of the ISCC 2010 Proceedings and will be available on IEEE Xplore (http://ieeexplore.ieee.org).
