Synopsis

The portable device and mobile phone market has witnessed rapid growth in the last few years with the emergence of several revolutionary products such as mobile TV, converging iPhone and digital cameras that combine music, phone and video functionalities into one device. The proliferation of this market has further bene?ted from the competition in software and applications for smart phones such as Google’s Android operating system and Apple’s iPhone App- Store, stimulating tens of thousands of mobile applications that are made ava- able by individual and enterprise developers. Whereas the mobile device has become ubiquitous in people’s daily life not only as a cellular phone but also as a media player, a mobile computing device, and a personal assistant, it is p- ticularly important to address challenges timely in applying advanced pattern recognition, signal, information and multimedia processing techniques, and new emerging networking technologies to such mobile systems. The primary objective of this book is to foster interdisciplinary discussions and research in mobile multimedia processing techniques, applications and s- tems, as well as to provide stimulus to researchers on pushing the frontier of emerging new technologies and applications. One attempt on such discussions was the organization of the First Int- national Workshop of Mobile Multimedia Processing (WMMP 2008), held in Tampa, Florida, USA, on December 7, 2008. About 30 papers were submitted from10countriesacrosstheUSA,Asia andEurope.

About this title

From the Back Cover

Whereas the mobile device has become ubiquitous in people's daily life not only as a cellular phone but also as a media player, a mobile computing device, and a personal assistant, it is particularly important to address challenges timely in applying advanced pattern recognition, signal, information and multimedia processing techniques, and new emerging networking technologies to such mobile systems. The 15 articles in this state-of-the-art survey foster interdisciplinary discussions and research in mobile multimedia processing techniques, applications and systems, and bring stimulus to researchers on pushing the frontier of emerging new technologies and applications. This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the First International Workshop on Mobile Multimedia Processing, WMMP 2008, held in Tampa, FL, USA, in December 2008, in conjunction with ICPR 2008, the 19th International Conference on Pattern Recognition. The papers went through two rounds of reviewing and improvement and are organized in topical sections on accessibility and learning, server assisted adaptation and networking applications, entertainment, face and speech processing, and development environment.
