CALL FOR PAPERS : NOSSDAV 2013

ACM Workshop on Network and Operating Systems Support
for Digital Audio and Video

Oslo, Norway, February 26 — 27, 2013

http://nossdav2013.ndlab.net

The 23nd ACM SIGMM Workshop on Network and Operating Systems Support
for Digital Audio and Video will be co-located with MMsys in Oslo
(Norway), on February 26-27 2013. As in previous years, the workshop
will continue to focus on both established and emerging research
topics, high-risk high-return ideas and proposals, and future research
directions in multimedia networking and systems, in a single-track
format that encourages active participation and discussions among
academic and industry researchers and practitioners.

The workshop seeks papers in all areas of multimedia networking and
systems. Authors are especially encouraged to submit papers with
real-world experimental results and real data sets. Topics of interest
include (but are not restricted to):

- Cloud and peer-to-peer system architectures
- Media streaming, distribution and storage support
- Multimedia communications and system security
- Multi-core and many-core architecture support
- Networked GPUs, graphics and virtual environments
- Networked games / Real-time immersive systems
- Operating system, middleware and network support
- Web 2.0 systems and social networks
- Wireless networks and embedded systems for multimedia applications  

In particular, we are interested in soliciting papers that discuss
system-level support for social media and social networking, papers
that focus on improving performance with multi-core and many-core
processors, as well as papers that focus on multimedia applications on
mobile devices and/or in a cloud computing environment.

Submitted papers must be original and should not be currently under
review for any other publication. Authors of accepted papers will need
to sign an ACM copyright release form and present their paper at
NOSSDAV 2013 in person. The Proceedings of NOSSDAV 2013 will be
published by ACM and distributed at the workshop electronically, and
will also be included in the ACM Digital Library.
