Call for Papers
The 2009 International Workshop on Pervasive Multimedia Sensor Networks
(PMSN'09) will be held in conjunction with the 7th IEEE/IFIP
International Conference on Embedded and Ubiquitous Computing (EUC-09),
August 29th-31st, 2009, Vancouver, Canada.
Having the development of low-cost imaging sensors, CMOS cameras,
sensitive microphones, PMSN have been proposed and drawn lots of
attention from the research community. PMSN are a new and emerging
type of sensor network that contains sensor nodes equipped with cameras,
microphones, and other sensors producing multimedia content. These
networks have the potential to enable a large class of applications
ranging from assisting elderly in public spaces to border protection
that benefit from the use of numerous sensor nodes that deliver
multimedia content, e.g., multimedia surveillance networks, target
tracking, environmental monitoring, and traffic management systems.
PMSNs require effective harvesting and communication of event features
in the form of multimedia such as audio, image, and video.
Comparing with traditional wireless sensor networks, a lot of new
challenges are faced by PMSNs, e.g., energy efficient multimedia
processing and communication, heterogeneous multimedia reliability
definitions, tight QoS expectations, and high bandwidth demands.
This workshop is intended to provide a forum for presenting, exchanging
and discussing the most recent advances in different aspects of
pervasive multimedia sensor networks and applications. In particular,
this workshop will bring together leading researchers, industry
professionals, and research students to study the special problems
and challenges of multimedia mobile and wireless environments.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
*New PMSN architectures, deployments, and applications
*New middleware, system, and underlying infrastructure for PMSN
*Integrating PMSN with all IP Networks
*Semantic annotation for multimedia streams in PMSN
*Multimedia stream processing and management for PMSN
*Protocols for supporting real-time and reliable multimedia streaming
in PMSN
*Energy-efficient multimedia gathering and transmission in PMSN
*Cross-layer design and optimization for effective communications in
PMSN
*Context aware approaches for facilitating multimedia streaming in
PMSN
*Secure multimedia streaming and transmission, QoS and admission
control in PMSN
*Cooperative transmission for multimedia delivery in PMSN
*Experimental and test bed studies, simulation tools for PMSN
*Information fusion and multimedia aggregation in PMSN
*Joint multimedia processing and communication solutions for PMSN
*Low-bit rate and energy-efficient multimedia source coding for PMSN
*Distributed source coding and multimedia processing in PMSN
*PMSN capacity modeling and theoretical analysis
*Delay-tolerant networking for PMSN
*Physical layer technologies for efficient PMSN
Publication of Proceedings
