Xi'an, People's Republic of China, June 18?20, 2016
Important Dates
Tutorial/Workshop Proposal: 15 December 2015

Acceptance Notification: 01 April 2016
Camera ready Due: 20 April 2016
Scope
Successfully deploying multimedia services and applications in mobile
environments requires adopting an interdisciplinary approach where
multimedia, networking and physical layer issues are addressed jointly.
Content features analysis and coding, media access control, multimedia
flow and error control, cross-layer optimization, Quality of Experience
(QoE), media cloud as well as mobility management and security protocols
are research challenges that need to be carefully examined when designing
new mobile media architectures. We also need to put a great effort in
designing applications that take into account the way the user perceives
the overall quality of the provided service.
Within this scope, MobiMedia is intended to provide a unique international
forum for researchers from industry and academia, working on multimedia
coding, mobile communications and networking fields, to study new
technologies, applications and standards. Original unpublished
contributions are solicited that can improve the knowledge and practice in
the integrated design of efficient technologies and the relevant provision
of advanced mobile multimedia applications.
Highlights
The event is endorsed by the European Alliance for Innovation, a leading
community-based organisation devoted to the advancement of innovation in
the field of ICT.
All accepted papers will be published by ACM/Springer and made available
through SpringerLink Digital Library, one of the world's largest
scientific libraries.
