--- Overview ---
Today with the fast developments in electronics industry and the amazing growing of the potential customers, media are increasingly ubiquitous: more and more people live in a world of Internet pop-ups and streaming television, mobile phone texting and video clips, MP3 players and pod-casting. These ubiquitous media creates our consumer and brand environment and has been contributing extensively and more closed to our life experience, especially its applications in mobile and other embedded devices. Therefore, the media, embedded and especially their emergence technologies have become the art-to-state research topics and are expected to be the important roles of human life in the future.
The objective of the Special Issue on Smart Media Technology (SMT) is to bring together state-of-art research contributions, tutorials, and position papers that address the broad challenges of integrating ubiquitous media technologies into everyday objects, devices and activities with ubiquitous computing and embedded system. Original papers describing completed and unpublished work not currently under review by any other journal/magazine/conference/special issue are solicited.
