Call For Papers - CFP

In conjunction with IEEE ICME 2012, 9-13 July, Melbourne, Australia

Recent advances in communications technologies have witnessed a

growing and evolving multimedia content delivery market based on

information gathering, manipulation, and dissemination. It is a fact

that personal communications, computing, broadcasting, entertainment,

etc. have turned into streams of multimedia content, and the various

communication and network technologies have become the means to carry

that content to a wide variety of terminals. Existing media delivery

platforms are faced with many new challenges: low utilization in

system resources, stringent power constraints of the mobile devices,

unpredictability in the wireless communication channel, and

heterogeneity in access networking technologies, just to name a few.

On the other hand, the comparatively unlimited resources offered by

cloud services and their flexible resource allocation mechanisms

present a unique opportunity for taming some of the aforementioned

challenges for media delivery targeted at a N-screen (e.g., TV, PC,

smartphone and tablet) experience. Cloud computing is emerging as a

promising technology to provide additional resources for many

media-rich applications.

The goal of this workshop is to bring together the state-of-the-art

research contribution that describes original and unpublished work

addressing the new emerging techniques on cloud-based media system. It

seeks high quality submissions in both theoretical and practical

research. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the

following scopes:

l Cloud-assisted media content recommendation

l Resource scheduling and allocation in the cloud for mediaapplications

l Distributed caching of media data

l Cloud-based multimedia processing

l Novel architecture for media clouds

l Performance measurements for cloud-based media systems

l Cloud-based media applications, such as online gaming, virtual

desktop, etc.

l Multimedia communications over cloud

A submission is 5 standard IEEE conference page; one more paper may be

allowed with additional publication fee.
