Distributed smart cameras are examples of high-performance multimedia sensor networks. This area brings together researchers in image processing, sensor networks, and embedded system architecture. Several groups are now working on distributed smart cameras, but generally pursuing them in different research communities. This meeting is the first event to bring together all the research groups working on this problem Online Registration: http://www.regonline.com/Checkin.asp?EventId=97157 Workshop Co-Chairs B.
