Track 3: Wireless Multimedia
Scope:
The growth in coverage, capabilities and bandwidth of wireless networks has brought with it a new age of multimedia access. Users expect immediate and continuous availability of rich multimedia content, from pictures and music through to video, 3D and interactive services. These increasing demands are providing new research challenges that are driving the development of exciting new solutions. As a result we have seen rapid advances in wireless protocols, ad hoc networking, portable multimedia, quality of service and many other areas; advances which are only likely to continue to accelerate as the possibilities for wireless networking and multimedia are explored.
This track aims to provide an international technical forum to bring together experts from industry and academia from across the world, to discuss and present innovative ideas and the results of ongoing research.
