24 April 2009
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
***********************************************

The focus of this workshop is to present and discuss recent advances
in the wireless network technologies and video delivery
mechanisms for supporting the broad spectrum of emerging video-centric
applications. The workshop will have the goal of understanding the
research and deployment challenges in building the Next Generation
Mobile Video Internet. Specifically, the workshop intends to address
the following topics: a) Research challenges in developing new methods
for delivering rich video experience to users over existing wireless
technologies; b) New visions and concepts that will drive evolution
of wireless access technologies to support high definition video
content with diverse QoS requirements; c) Deployment challenges in
new video delivery models (broadcast/multicast) to mobile users.

The workshop aims to foster interaction among researchers
and exchange new ideas by bringing together members of the video and
networking communities. The workshop will provide an interesting venue
to discuss widely varying beliefs and understanding being formed among
the academic and industrial communities in terms of how next generation
mobile video content should delivered to end-users.
