GENERAL INFORMATION The series of annual Franco - Malaysia Conference on Multimedia namely DFMA (Distributed Frame for Multimedia Applications) has already initiated in 2005 by the University Franche-Comté, and the University of Science Malaysia (USM) to provide a forum for researchers in computer science from both countries and to promote interaction with researchers from other regions as well. DFMA is an international conference born from the collaboration between Network Research Group from University Sains Malaysia and the Laboratoire d'Informatique, University of Franche-Comté, France. DFMA is technically co-sponsored by IEEE France Section. The first conference was held in Besançon, France, in February 2005, the second one was held in Penang, Malaysia in May 2006 and the third will be held in Paris, France on 4-6 July, 2007. In order to encourage closer interaction between academic and industrial networking research communities, we solicit both academic research papers and industrial contributions. The aim of this conference is to cluster manufacturers and researchers.
