Special Issue on Secure Multimedia Services
Introduction During the last decade, various techniques have been proposed to improve multimedia service systems' security. For example, multimedia encryption is used for confidentiality protection of multimedia content, multimedia authentication for integrity detection, digital watermarking for ownership authentication or copy tracing, Conditional Access (CA) for access control, and Digital Rights Management (DRM) for copyright management, etc. In addition, in different networks, such as the Internet, 3G wireless, DVB-H and sensor network, different secure protocols and algorithms are required to provide system security. All these topics are in active development.
This special issue aims to expose the readership to the latest research results on secure multimedia services in telecommunication systems. It will include a number of related topics, demonstrate pioneer work in this field, investigate the novel solutions and discuss the future trends in this field.
Topics Submitted papers may focus on architecture construction, algorithm design or hardware implementation. Both review papers and technical papers are expected. The topics include but are not limited to
Secure Mobile TV Secure VoIP system Secure IPTV system Secure Color Ring service Secure Multimedia Message Service (MMS) Secure IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) Secure multimedia sensor network Secure network convergence Secure P2P Content Sharing Secure User Generated Content (UGC) Secure multi-mode interface Secure multimedia devices Secure multimedia coding Multimedia content security Privacy protection in multimedia services Conditional Access in multimedia services Digital Rights Management in multimedia services Other security issues and solutions in multimedia services
