===========================================================
Main Theme IEEE Systems Journal is a journal publishing application-oriented research papers that address complex systems of significance in a systematic way. IEEE Systems Journal will publish a special issue dedicated to the topic of "Multimedia Communications Systems." The goal of this special issue is to bring together the state of the art research contribution that describes original and unpublished work addressing multimedia communications systems.
Due to the latest developments in electronics industry, multimedia communications is one of the key enabling technologies in the current and future networks. With the emerging multimedia techniques which can be used for various pervasive applications such as conference, health care, environmental monitoring, security and surveillance, there are a number of important challenges that arise when multimedia transmits in these new systems.
Topics of primary interest include, but are not limited to:
* Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks - Multimedia Streaming in WSNs - Collaborative Caching of Multimedia in WSNs - Mobile Multimedia Sensor Networks
* Advanced multimedia communications protocols - SIP, SDP, MGCP, H.248, RTP, RTSP and related protocols for delivery of multimedia services over IP networks; - SIP, H.323 & MGCP: features, comparisons & SIP translators; - SIP & PSTN inter-working; - SIP/IP terminals, SIP servers, IP routers & gateways; - QoS parameters, mechanisms and tradeoffs for best effort, queuing, traffic shaping, class of service networks.
* Standards-based video compression and application enhancements -Overview descriptions, analyses & comparisons of video coding for H.263, H.263+, H.263++, H.261, MPEG1, MPEG2, MPEG4 Simple and Advanced Simple Profiles, H.264/AVC, M-JPEG, JPEG2000, scalable coding.
* Systems issues for wired and wireless communications -Cross-layer design for multimedia communications; -Multiplex structures and transport protocols including MPEG2 transport, MPEG4 multiplex, RTP/UDP/IP; - Sync & timing recovery; - Error resilience and concealment; - Resource allocation and system scheduling; - Real-time video over IP and ATM; - Multimedia security.
* Speech and audio coding for multimedia applications - Speech and audio: similarities and differences; - Overviews and analyses of speech coding for G.711, G.722, G.723.1, G.726, G.728, G.729/A; - Overviews and analyses of MPEG audio coding, mp3 and AMR and AACPlus.
Tentative Schedule: Paper Submission Deadline: November 1, 2010 1st Notification of acceptance: February 1, 2011 Submission due date of revised paper: March 15, 2011 2nd Notification of acceptance: May 1, 2011 Submission of final revised paper: June 1, 2011 Publication date: TBD by EiC
Submission & Review Instructions: All papers submitted to this Special Issue will undergo further reviews by at least 3 independent reviewers. All manuscripts should be submitted electronically to the IEEE Systems Journal by November 1, 2010 (http://systemsjournal.org/papersub.html). Authors should indicate that their manuscript is being submitted for the Special Issue on Multimedia Communications Systems. All submissions must be prepared according to IEEE Systems Journal submission guidelines. A copy of the manuscript should be emailed in PDF format to the special issue Guest editors.
