Workshop Focus

The focus of this workshop is to present and discuss recent advances in the wireless technologies for delivering the broad classes of new generation video contents and applications. The workshop will have the goal of understanding the research and deployment challenges in building the Next Generation Mobile Video Internet. The objective is to create an interesting forum for discussion given the various choices we have in terms of wireless technologies and various approaches in terms of delivering the video. Specifically, the workshop intends to address the following topics: a) Research challenges in developing new techniques for delivering rich video experience to users over existing wireless technologies; b) New visions and concepts that will drive evolution of wireless access technologies to support high quality video content with diverse QoS requirements; c) Deployment challenges in new video delivery models (broadcast/multicast) to mobile users. By bringing together members of the video and networking communities, the workshop will provide an interesting venue to discuss widely varying beliefs and understanding being formed among the academic and industrial communities in terms of how next generation mobile video content delivery will evolve.

The proposed workshop aims to foster interaction among researchers and exchange new ideas by bringing together members of the video and networking communities. The workshop will provide an interesting venue to discuss widely varying beliefs and understanding being formed among the academic and industrial communities in terms of how next generation mobile video content should delivered to end-users.
