call for papers, previous message From: aar@kaleida.com (Arturo A. Rodriguez) Subject: CFP: Multimedia Computing and Networking 95 Date: 18 Apr 1994 13:50:51 -0500 CALL FOR PAPERS MULTIMEDIA COMPUTING AND NETWORKING 1995 Part of IS&T/SPIE Symposium on Electronic Imaging: Science & Technology San Jose Convention Center, San Jose, California, February 5-11, 1995 In Cooperation with IEEE Computer Society Advances in computer and networking technologies have fueled the rapid growth of research and development in high-speed networking and multimedia computing. As emerging multimedia technologies set higher performance levels at competitive costs, they are starting to enable and proliferate multimedia solutions in a spectrum of commercial products and laboratory projects. This conference brings together researchers, developers, and practitioners working in all facets of multimedia computing and networking. The conference will serve as a forum for the dissemination of state-of-the-art research, development, and implementations of multimedia systems, technologies, and applications. Presenters will be encouraged to make multimedia presentations and demonstrate their solutions. Papers are solicited in all areas of multimedia, including, but not limited to: 1. Multimedia Computing and Presentation (e.g., hardware and software architectures, real-time operating system services, data representation, time-keeping mechanisms, data streaming and delivery mechanisms, event processing, synchronization and real-time compositing, display mechanisms, media and user interaction) 2. Multimedia User Interfaces (e.g., video widgets, synthetic animation, interactive navigation schemes) 3. Multimedia Networking (e.g., network protocols, quality-of-service control, bandwidth management strategies, transmission of media streams, synchronization mechanisms, connections, data exchange and formats) 4. Multimedia Authoring Systems (media capture and creation, scripting languages, authoring metaphors, editing techniques, data transitions) 5. Multimedia Applications (e.g., video conferencing, e-mail, education and training, digital libraries, medical applications, entertainment and games) 6. Multimedia Services to the Home (e.g., set-top technologies and operating systems; video-on-demand services; video servers; community networking architecture) 7. Collaborative Multimedia Computing (e.g., concurrency control of shared multimedia objects; cyberspace communication, presentation, and interaction; electronic communities; entertainment and games) 8. Multimedia Standards, documents, and data interchange. Conference Chairs: Jacek Maitan, University of North Carolina/Charlotte Arturo A. Rodriguez, Kaleida Labs Mong-Song Chen, IBM T. J.
