IWGREEN 2013 - 1st Workshop on GREEN Multimedia: Energy-efficient Multimedia Computing, Communication and Presentation

First IEEE Workshop of GREEN Multimedia: Energy-efficient Multimedia Computing, Communication and Presentation
(In conjunction with ICME 2013)
July 15 - 19, 2013, San Jose, USA
The advances in computing and communication technologies have fueled an explosive growth in multimedia capable devices and multimedia contents in recent years. In particular, mobile multimedia applications (such as mobile TV, video on demand, online video repositories, immersive video interaction, peer to peer video streaming, and interactive video gaming) are becoming increasingly pervasive in our daily life. However, multimedia processing, delivery and presentation consume significant amount of the energy. This presents a practical challenge to the multimedia applications on mobile devices. Relevant research will benefit both academia and industry. More importantly, ISO/IEC MPEG recently initiated the Green MPEG Ad-Hoc group, to study and standardize potential technologies for energy-efficient media encoding, signaling, decoding and presentation. The focus of this workshop is closely related to the main area of the ICME, and also complements the main conference with an emphasis on energy-efficiency and Green technology.
In this workshop, we solicit papers on energy-efficient multimedia computing, communication and presentation that improve energy-efficiency for multimedia applications while maintaining the quality of experience (QoE). The topics include but are not limited to,
Energy-efficient multimedia computing (encoding, processing, decoding and etc)
Low-complexity/low power computing algorithm
Parallel/high throughput processing techniques for multimedia processing
Dynamic voltage frequency scaling assisted processing
Dynamic power management for media computing
Energy-aware signal sensing and processing
Energy-efficient multimedia networking and communication,
Energy efficient video communication
Cognitive Radio technology for energy efficient video communication
Traffic scheduling over WiFi, 3G/4G and etc.
Energy-efficient traffic routing
Efficient network architecture for multimedia data (such as mobile p2p, hybrid p2p-CDN, cross-layer optimization and etc)
Bigdata network analytics for content traffic pattern discovery, cache and pre-fetching algorithm optimization
Energy aware content delivery acceleration
Energy-efficient multimedia rendering and display
Content adaptive display adaptation
Environment adaptive presentation
Low-power multimedia display technologies
Energy-efficient multimedia system design
Efficient software/hardware architecture for multimedia system
Scalable computations, low-power and low-memory implementations
Algorithm-architecture co-design for multimedia processing (such as video codec)
Use behavior based efficient multimedia applications (such as pre-fetching, caching, task scheduling and etc)
