IEEE MultiMedia special issue--Intelligent Pervasive Multimedia Systems
(January-March 2009)

Overview:

Recent advances in pervasive computers, networks, telecommunications, and
information technology, along with the proliferation of multimedia mobile
devices - such as laptops, iPods, personal digital assistants (PDA), and
cellular telephones - have stimulated the development of intelligent pervasive
multimedia applications. These key technologies are creating a multimedia
revolution that will have significant impact across a wide spectrum of
consumer, business, healthcare, and governmental domains. Yet many challenges
remain, especially when it comes to efficiently indexing, mining, querying,
searching, and retrieving multimedia data.

The goal of this special issue is to offer a collection of techniques and
applications in the area of intelligent pervasive multimedia computing,
including efficient delivery and distribution of multimedia content,
applications, and services over the wired and wireless networks as well as
multimedia QoS support for such networks. We are also interested in looking at
service architectures, protocols, and standards for multimedia communications
- including middleware - along with the related security issues, such as secure
multimedia information sharing. Finally, we would also like to publish work on
novel applications that exploit the unique set of advantages offered by
intelligent pervasive multimedia computing techniques, including
home-networked entertainment and games.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:

    * scalable multimedia delivery for pervasive computing;
    * multimedia security for intelligent pervasive computing;
    * multimedia streaming techniques and architectures;
    * mobile content and application distribution networks;
    * multimedia QoS support for wired and wireless networks;
    * Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols with multimedia QoS support in
      wireless networks;
    * online gaming (services, architectures, protocols, and security);
    * interactive multimedia systems and applications;
    * distributed services middleware and systems for multimedia
      communications;
    * TV-centric home networks, digital TV, and home-networked entertainment
      and games;
    * multimedia languages, standards, and formats for multichannel content
      distribution;
    * GRID and distributed systems for multimedia content production and
      retrieval; and
    * Web services for content distribution; distribution with P2P
      architectures.
