The International Workshop on IPTV Technologies and Multidisciplinary
Applications (IWITMA 2009) is a one-day event to be held in
conjunction with the 10th International Conference on
Telecommunications ConTEL 2009. ConTEL 2009 is organized by the
University of Zagreb – Faculty of Electrical Engineering and
Computing and the IEEE Communication Society Croatia Chapter, and
technically cosponsored by the IEEE Communications Society, IEEE
Croatia Section, and IEEE Region 8.
The tentative day of the workshop is June 8, 2009.

Homepage: http://www.contel.hr/.
The workshop seeks innovative technical papers on all aspects of IPTV
in multimedia broadcasting, including architectural standardization,
content protection, quality of service and quality of experience,
middleware, etc.
Topics include but are not limited to:
* Architectures for IPTV systems (including NGN based, Non-NGN based,
IPTV service and scenario, etc.)
* IPTV Service deployments, interactivity, datacasting
* IPTV QoS/QoE issues (including performance considerations, traffic
management, cross layer reliability solutions, monitoring, etc.)
* Video Content Distribution Networks for distributed IPTV systems
* IPTV system integration issues (including head-end integration,
networking, end systems, portability scalability / interoperability
aspects, etc.)
* Mobile IPTV (system deployment, mobile extension considerations, etc.)
* IPTV test beds and field trials for multimedia broadcasting applications
* IPTV home networks, set-top-box and home networking
* Architectures for P2P-based IPTV Service delivery
* Mathematical and analytical models for IPTV networks
* IPTV content consumption measurement, congestion control, rate control
* IPTV processing, video coding and processing
* IPTV content protection and watermarking.
Additionally, the workshop plans to bring an invited speaker to talk
on "IPTV in Industry", i.e., to discuss original contributions from
various industry IPTV domains (e.g. consumer electronics,
broadcasters, producers, broadband companies, software and hardware
developers, telecom operators). The objective will be discussing
evidences of issues regarding IPTV technologies' dealing with industry
cases in the above areas of interest.
