Dear colleague,
I would like to remember you that the IEEE FMN´08 deadline is approaching - only 1 week to deadline.
We hope that with your support IEEE FMN´08 will become an important meeting to address scientific and technological aspects of multimedia, as well as a discussion forum for scientists, engineers, and practitioners throughout the world.
You are cordially invited to submit a paper to the IEEE FMN´08 workshop, to be held in Cardiff, Wales, UK on September 17th 2008 (collocated with IEEE NGMAST 2008).
The proceedings of the workshop will be published by IEEE CPS and on IEEExplore digital library - indexed through INSPEC. In addition, best papers of the workshop will be considered for publication in a Special Issue of International Journal of Internet Protocol Technology (IJIPT).
To find out more about the IEEE FMN´08 workshop, please visit: http://fmn2008.dei.uc.pt
Please find below the CFP for your convenience.
Many thanks and best regards,
Eduardo Cerqueira, Thomas Michael Bohnert, Fernando Boavida

CALL FOR PAPER
********************************************************************** 1st IEEE International Workshop on FUTURE MULTIMEDIA NETWORKING http://fmn2008.dei.uc.pt 2008 September 17, Cardiff, Wales, UK Technical Co-sponsorship by IEEE Communications Society FMN´08 is an official workshop of the IST FP6 NoE CONTENT
Collocated with IEEE NGMAST 2008 (http://www.ngmast.com/) **********************************************************************
AIMS AND GOALS
Real-time multimedia services are contributing to enhance our life experience and are expected to be among the most important applications in future generation networks. The management of real-time multimedia services is an important key to attract and keep customers, while increasing profits to content providers. The efficient delivery and deployment of real-time multimedia services over emerging diverse and heterogeneous wired and wireless systems is a challenging research objective. The interoperability of applications, transport and network protocols, as well as, the demand for improved Quality of Service (QoS) and user experience, and seamless mobility control creates a challenging study field and also possibilities for research of novel communication protocols, architectures and methods towards Future Multimedia Networking Systems.
The objective of the Future Multimedia Networking (FMN´08) workshop is to discuss state-of-the-art research and developing activities contributing to aspects of multimedia systems, and networking. We are inviting both theoretical and experimental papers as well as work-in-progress research. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Multimedia management in next generation networks - Content delivery networks - Audio-visual systems - Novel protocol for multimedia services - Grid networking for multimedia services - Multimedia in personal, sensor and ad-hoc networks - Multimedia in peer-to-peer networks - Quality of service management in multimedia networks - Quality of experience management in multimedia networks - Management of service oriented architectures - Seamless mobility of multimedia services - Novel multimedia architectures/platforms - Multicast and broadcast multimedia service management - IP multimedia system operations and management - Resource reservation for multimedia services - Multimedia in mobile and broadband wireless access networks - Experiments/lessons from recent deployments - Performance evaluation of multimedia services - Network measurement/monitoring for multimedia services - Pricing, accounting and billing for multimedia services - Reliability, availability, serviceability of multimedia services
Special Issue Journal Publication: Best papers of the workshop will be considered for publication in a Special Issue of International Journal of Internet Protocol Technology (IJIPT).
The proceedings of the workshop will be published by IEEE CPS and on IEEExplore digital library.
