First International Workshop on Mobile Multimedia Networking (IWMMN 2010)

Workshop theme

The synergy between the wireless systems such as 3G/4G wireless Internet and multimedia promises to bring a tremendous growth in mobile multimedia applications, such as mobile video conferences, mobile video games and mobile TV broadcasting. To support these multimedia applications, wireless systems must implement end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) support throughout all their underlying networks. However, the wireless channel unreliability and stringent delay constraints in mobile wireless multimedia systems are still significant obstacles for these applications and services. It has strong needs to develop novel wireless multimedia protocols for new applications and services in order to satisfy users’ future requirements. The workshop aims to seek for high quality submissions in both theoretical and practical research that can advance the future wireless mobile multimedia networking.

Papers

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to

• Mobile multimedia over wireless peer-to-peer (P2P) networks
• Rate control and adaptation for mobile wireless video
• Advanced multimedia coding algorithms
• Multimedia over Wireless ad-hoc networks
