M3W'01 - Extended deadline
by Tom Kristensen 11 May '01

11 May '01

--------------------------------------------------------------- [Our apologies if you receive multiple postings of this CfP] Please find enclosed the CfP for the International Workshop on Multimedia Middleware that will take place on October 5th in conjunction with the ACM Multimedia conference. After many requests the deadline for paper submissions have been extended with 10 days to May 25th. ------------------------------------------------------------- M3W'01 International Workshop on Multimedia Middleware October 5th, 2001, Ottawa, Canada in conjunction with ACM Multimedia 2001 http://www.ifi.uio.no/~m3w Middleware technologies like the Common Object Request Broker (CORBA) implementations, Microsoft's Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM), and Java RMI have proved their suitability for "standard" client-server applications. Middleware abstracts from particular network services and allows application developers to focus on the application. However, it is well known in the research community, that today's middleware solutions are not suited for distributed multimedia systems, and do not provide the required levels of adaptation and configurability that is needed to accommodate the diversity of modern distributed multimedia applications. The goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers from academia and industry to identify why today's middleware technologies and standards fail to appropriately support multimedia applications and especially to discuss new requirements, approaches, and solutions. Areas of interest for this workshop include (but are not limited to) the following topics: - Experiences with middleware platforms in multimedia application domains - The design and implementation of multimedia middleware platforms - Performance analysis of multimedia middleware platforms - Quality of Service and Realtime support in middleware platforms - Stream support in middleware platforms - Support for persistent multimedia objects - Resolving heterogeneity in multimedia middleware platforms - Services and APIs for multimedia application development (incl. security and management) Format of the workshop: ----------------------- To enable a highly interactive workshop, attendance will be limited to about 50 participants. Participants will be invited based on the originality, technical merit and topical relevance of their submissions, as well as the likelihood that the ideas expressed in their submissions will lead to insightful technical discussions at the workshop. Proceedings and submission guidelines: ----------------------------------------- We seek short paper submissions describing original and unpublished work. The page limit for submissions is four pages. All accepted papers will be published in a proceeding printed by ACM. We strongly encurage electronic submissions via the workshop's web page (http://www.ifi.uio.no/~m3w). Important dates: ----------------- Submission Deadline: May 25th (Extended) Notification: June 15th Final version: July 15th Workshop Co-Chairs: ------------------- T. Plagemann, U of Oslo F. Eliassen, Simula RL Publicity Chair: ---------------- T. Kristensen, U of Oslo Program Committee: -------------------- G. Blair, Lancaster U V. Cahill, Trinity C. Dublin A. Campbell, Columbia U R.

Sorry for virus

11 May '01

Hi all, Sorry for the "homepage" virus but it is brand new and it came from Amsterdam via Wits University and was only detected and resolved by Norton about 4 hours after I received it. It was also on the radio and TV yesterday. It is easy to fix with yesterday's Norton updates and is not causing any damage to your computer. Regards Koos Koen ********************************************************************* IFIP AFRICOM'2001 - International Conference on Communication Systems. Cape Town 28 - 30 May 2001.
