MMSys2010

2010-02-22 to 2010-02-23 Scottsdale, Arizona

Slide text: 
<p> The ACM Multimedia Systems conference provides a forum for researchers, engineers, and scientist to present and share their latest research findings in multimedia systems. While research about specific aspects of multimedia systems is regularly published in the various proceedings and transactions of the networking, operating system, real-time system, and database communities, MMSys aims to cut across these domains in the context of multimedia data types. This provides a unique opportunity to view the intersections and interplay of the various approaches and solutions developed across these domains to deal with multimedia data types. Furthermore, MMSys provides an avenue for communicating research that addresses multimedia systems holistically.<br /> <br /> Conference program available at: http://www.mmsys.org<br /> On-line registration available at: http://regonline.com/mmsys2010</p>
