Dear Colleague,
I am cordially inviting you to submit a paper at the 2nd International
Workshop on Social and Personal Computing for Web-Supported Learning
Communities - SPeL 2009 (see CfP below). Please feel free to distribute
the CfP to all the interested persons and groups.

***************************************************************************
* 2nd International Workshop on Social and Personal Computing
* for Web-Supported Learning Communities (SPeL 2009)
* http://software.ucv.ro/~popescu_elvira/spel2009/
*
* in conjunction with The 2009 IEEE / WIC / ACM International Conferences
* on Web Intelligence (WI'09) and Intelligent Agent Technology (IAT'09)

Motivation
==========
The workshop follows the previous SPeL 2008 workshop
(http://software.ucv.ro/~popescu_elvira/spel2008), held in conjunction
with the SAINT 2008 conference. The workshop combines research in the area
of e-Learning, Social Networks and Social Intelligence, and Web
Personalization and focuses this year on the application of Web
Intelligence research paradigm to the next generation of e-learning systems.
Web-based learning is moving from a centralized, institution-based system
to a decentralized and informal creation and sharing of knowledge. Social
software (e.g., blogs, wikis, podcasts, and media-sharing services) has
started to be used for e-learning purposes, helping to create novel
learning experiences. In the world of pervasive Internet, learners are
also evolving: the so-called ?digital natives? want to be in constant
communication with their peers, they expect an individualized instruction
and a personalized learning environment, which automatically adapt to
their individual needs.
This workshop deals with current research on e-learning as an intelligent
e-technology, more specifically the challenges of social and
personalization aspects in Web-supported learning communities. Its aim is
to provide a forum for discussing new trends and initiatives in this area,
including research about the planning, development, application, and
evaluation of intelligent learning environments, where people can learn
together in a personalized way.
Topics of interest
==================
The workshop welcomes submissions covering all aspects of Web Intelligence
related to social and personal computing in web-based learning
communities, including (but not limited to):

Journal of Communications Special Issue on Multimedia Computing and Communications
Manuscript Submission Deadline: September 1, 2009
http://www.academypublisher.com/jcm/
============================================================================
The growing momentum behind the deployment of broadband networks worldwide and the convergence of voice, image, video, and data offer unprecedented opportunities for various modern multimedia applications and services such as mobile TV, video conferencing, Internet gaming, interactive TV, IPTV, Open Internet video and multimedia visualization, navigation, search and retrieval. Also, the rising demand for quality service by consumers has expedited the advance of numerous new technologies for computing and communication over wired and wireless networks, ranging from video coding, communication infrastructure, content distribution protocols, quality of service (QoS) management, visual content analysis, post-processing, to interactive models. Novel video source and channel coding techniques such as scalable video coding, multiple description codes, transcoding, and network coding can certainly improve the efficiency of video transmission over the Internet. New communication architectures such as overlay network, content delivery network (CDN), peer-to-peer (P2P) distributed network can further improve video distribution and enable new services. On the other hand, IPTV over managed IP networks not only holds the promise for high quality video viewing experience that is at least as good as what is offered by today's cable/satellite TV, but also introduces new service functionalities such as time-shift viewing and interactivity. In addition, the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) provides a unified framework for multimedia service creation and deployment and supports interoperability and network convergence. Last but not the least, new wireless network technologies and video delivery mechanisms such as IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi) and the 3G and 4G cellular systems become strong alternatives to their wired counterparts, allowing users to access and produce video at any time and from anywhere.
In view of these advances in modern multimedia applications and services, this special issue is soliciting papers with fundamental contributions to multimedia computation and communications, in particular those addressing the challenges due to the limited computation power of client devices, the explosive growth of rich media, the complexity of content analysis and understanding, and the heterogeneity of the transport network. Topics covered include, but are not limited to, the following:
* Multimedia coding, streaming, and networking
* Multimedia transmission networks, systems, and applications
* Novel Internet architectures, protocol and algorithms for video distribution
* P2P multimedia coding, architecture, and networks
* Innovative Internet video, mobile video, and IPTV services
* IPTV architectures and standards
* QoS management for video streaming and IPTV
* Video coding, transcoding, and multiview coding
* Joint source-channel video coding
* Video quality assessment
* Multimedia content analysis, representation, and understanding
* Multimedia indexing and retrieval
* Multimedia summarization and abstraction
* Multimedia and multimodal signal processing, user interfaces, and interaction models
Submission:
Authors are invited to submit original and unpublished papers. Submissions should follow the author guidelines of Journal of Communications and the complete instructions for prospective authors can be found at http://www.academypublisher.com/jcm/forauthors.html.
