Special Issue on: "Toward Merging Multimedia and Mobility Services" http://www.inderscience.com/../search/images/lineabajotexto.gif

Guest Editors: Robert C. H. Hsu, Chung Hua University, Taiwan Mieso Denko, University of Guelph, Canada Leonard Barolli, Fukuoka Institute of Technology (FIT), Japan

Services computing has emerged rapidly as an exciting new paradigm that offers a challenging model of service computing and poses fascinating problems regarding distributed resource management, ranging from information sharing to cooperative computing. This special issue is intended to foster state-of-the-art research in the area of integration of multimedia and mobility services (MMS), including the topics of collaboration environment, implementation and execution on real-world architectures, and novel applications associated with this new paradigm.

The published papers are expected to present high quality results for tackling problems arising from the ever-growing multimedia and mobility services. This special issue will serve as a landmark source for education, information, and reference to professors, researchers and graduate students interested in updating their knowledge about or active in MMS.
