June 23-25, 1997, Princeton, New Jersey, USA
Sponsored by the IEEE Signal Processing Society
Organized by the Multimedia Signal Processing Technical Committee
in cooperation with:
Digital Signal Processing Technical Committee
Image and Multidimensional Signal Processing Technical Committee
New Jersey Center for Multimedia Research
Speech Processing Technical Committee
Thanks to the sponsorship of IEEE Signal Processing Society, the First
IEEE Workshop on Multimedia Signal Processing (MMSP) will be held at
Princeton University, Princeton, New Jersey, USA, on June 23-25, 1997.
MMSP strives to bring together people in the signal processing society,
the communications society, and the computer society, and to offer a
forum for interaction. This workshop will feature keynote addresses,
technical presentations, panel discussions, exhibit tours, and special
sessions by invited speakers. To encourage interaction, we are
planning sessions with the format of presentation followed by technical
discussion on the same topic. These topics include, from a signal-processing
viewpoint: integration of media, human/machine interfaces, and
multimedia networks. In particular, papers are solicited for,
but not limited to, the following general areas:
1 Multimedia Processing
1.1 Compression for Multimedia (Audio, Video, Speech, etc.)
1.2 Integration of Media
1.3 Joint Audio-Video Processing
2 Multimedia Databases
2.1 Indexing, Retrieval, and Archiving
2.2 Authoring and Editing
2.3 Digital Library
2.4 Content Preparation and Presentation
3 Multimedia System Design and Implementation
