AIMS AND GOALS OF THE WORKSHOP

In recent years real-time multimedia services have been contributing
extensively to our life experience and are expected to be among the most
important applications in the future Internet. The management of content
distribution services is an important key to attract and keep customers,
while increasing profits to content providers. At the same time the
complexity and dynamics of content networks require special solutions in
order to provide efficient delivery and deployment of real-time multimedia
services. Further, emerging diverse and heterogeneous wired and wireless
systems is a challenging research objective. The interoperability of
applications, transport and network protocols, as well as, the demand for
improved Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Experience (QoE), and
seamless mobility control creates a challenging study field and also
possibilities for research of novel communication protocols, architectures
and methods towards Future Multimedia Networking Systems. Thus, one major
challenge is the ever growing complexity of communication management and
network maintenance. Solutions are required in which services, management
and administration entities interact and behave autonomously, with the
overall goal of creating content centric networks.

The objective of the Future Multimedia Networking - FMN 2010 workshop is to
discuss state-of-the-art research and developing activities contributing to
aspects of multimedia systems, content networking, and autonomous
communication. We are inviting both theoretical and experimental papers as
well as work-in-progress research. Topics of interest include, but are not
limited to:

- Content centric networks

- Autonomic content networks

- Audio-visual systems

- Novel protocols for multimedia services

- Grid networking for multimedia services

- Multimedia in personal, sensor and ad-hoc networks

- Multimedia in peer-to-peer networks and autonomic network infrastructures

- Multimedia in mobile and broadband wireless access networks

- Quality of service management in content centric networks

- Quality of experience management in content centric networks

- Seamless mobility of multimedia services in emerging content networks

- Multicast and broadcast multimedia service management

- Resource reservation for multimedia services

- Context-aware content distribution

- Energy-efficiency in content centric networks

- Multimedia Security

PARALLEL POSTER/DEMONSTRATION SESSION

A parallel poster/demonstration session entitled "Demonstrations on Future
Multimedia" will be organized along with the main workshop. This event
encourages researchers to present and discuss "work-in-progress" or
"experience-in-practice" of their current implementations and research
prototypes that cover the topics of FMN 2010. Authors are invited to submit
a short paper of up to 6 pages following the format of workshop. All
accepted short papers will be included in the proceedings of FMN 2010. The
papers should specifically focus on implementation and practical aspects
such as

- Experiments/lessons from recent multimedia deployments

- Quality of Service/ Quality of Experience of multimedia applications

- Performance evaluation of multimedia services

- Network measurement/monitoring for multimedia services

PUBLICATION

Special Issue Journal Publication: Extended versions of best papers of the
workshop will be considered for publication in a Special Issue of a
well-known SCI-indexed journal. Selected best papers of FMN'10 will appear
in a Special issue of Multimedia Tools and Applications journal.

Proceedings: FMN 2010 papers will be published by Springer-Verlag - LNCS
series (www.springer.com/lncs)

BEST PAPER AWARD

One best paper award, selected by the organizing committee, based on referee
reviews, will be presented to the author(s) of the best paper submitted to
the workshop along with other awards presented during the social event.

PAPER SUBMISSION

Papers reporting original and unpublished research results on FMN 2010
topics are solicited. Submissions must not be under consideration for
publication elsewhere while being evaluated for this workshop.

*** Full papers (main workshop): The maximum length of papers should be 5000
words including tables and figures. Please adhere to the formatting standard
for a 12-page manuscript of Springer-Verlag LNCS. The cover page must
contain an abstract of about 150 words, 3-5 keywords, name and affiliation
of author(s) as well as the corresponding author's e-mail and postal
address.

*** Short Papers (poster/demonstration): The maximum size of posters/demos
should be 2500 words including tables and figures. Please adhere to the
formatting standard for a 6-page manuscript of Springer-Verlag LNCS. The
cover page must contain an abstract of about 150 words, 3-5 keywords, name
and affiliation of author(s) as well as the corresponding author's e-mail
and postal address.

- How to submit:

The paper submission system has two stages. At the first stage, participants
register to the SysKon system. Paper submission becomes possible at the
second stage. After registering to the SysKon system one can modify her/his
article or cancel his/her registration. Only papers in PDF and MS Office
Word will be accepted for reviewing. Submissions as e-mail attachment will
not be accepted.

To register to the SysKon click on Registration on the FMN'10 web page:

- Peer Review of submitted papers: Consistent with standard practice, each
submitted paper will receive rigorous peer reviewing.

Papers will be selected based on their originality, timeliness,
significance, relevance and clarity of presentation. Selection will be based
on full papers. Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the
authors to register and present the paper, if accepted. All accepted papers
of the workshop are expected to be presented and will be included in the
workshop proceedings.
