2nd European Symposium on Mobile Media Delivery (EUMOB) 2008

The delivery of multimedia content to every mobile handset on every mobile network, anytime and anywhere is still a major challenge. Several European research projects from the FP6 and the FP7 program are addressing the challenges of mobile media delivery. Due to the interdisciplinary nature of mobile media delivery, projects from the mobile and wireless area, from the networked media area as well as from the content technologies area, not neglecting security and experimental facilities, are dealing with mobile media delivery.

One of the goals of the workshop is to allow exchange of ideas and interaction among the different European Projects in the topic, with a specific focus on recently started FP7 projects.
European technology platforms are also invited to present their views in the area.

Besides these projects, other research work about mobile media delivery is carried out in academia, research institutes and industrial companies.
EuMob 2006 will give researchers the opportunity to present their latest results on this topic.
Researchers active in FP6 and FP7 research projects as well as other leading international researchers are invited to participate and share their latest findings.

Authors are invited to submit original unpublished contributions dealing with topics on mobile media delivery, including:

Architectures for mobile media delivery
Mobile media delivery over next generation systems
Peer-2-peer networks for mobile media delivery;
Solutions for optimized media delivery and transport over heterogeneous networks
QoS problems and solutions, including video quality assessment methods
Network convergence for media delivery
Media adaptation to networks and devices
Cross-layer communication for mobile media delivery
(Scalable) source coding for mobile media
Source/channel coding, joint optimizations
Efficient usage of radio and spectrum resources
Mobile media delivery to multiple users
Interactive mobile broadcast and Mobile TV
Security and protection for mobile media delivery
Content-aware mobile media delivery
Context-aware mobile media delivery
Health, Transport and Environment applications
