IEEE Systems Journal Special Issue on Recent Advances in Cloud-based Multimedia Systems
The main concept of cloud computing is placing the required services on the “cloud”. Users do not need to understand the cloud infrastructure, nor restrict control within the clouds, making it possible to offer a scalable Internet service. The benefits of this service have gained a lot of attention within academic and industrial communities in areas such as commerce, communication, and software security. Recently consumer demands for high quality multimedia services have increased, including higher resolution and more multimedia content. Cloud computing is a key technology that promises significant decreasing in hardware requirements and computation time. It is also efficient technology that can be used to search for related multimedia messages to enable instant results when searching for content, while using the heterogeneous Internet structure to provide ubiquitous multimedia services. In this special issue, we solicit original works in all areas of multimedia systems that leverage cloud-computing technologies. In particular, we seek original work on identifying new research and development challenges and developing new techniques, framework, and algorithms in protocol design and performance optimization in cloud-based multimedia systems. Specific topics include, but not limited to, the following: 1. Novel cloud-based multimedia system architecture 2. Cloud-based multimedia communication 3. Multimedia resource scheduling and allocation on cloud computing 4. Quality of service for cloud-based multimedia system 5. Robust cloud-based multimedia content transmission 6. Cloud-based multimedia network applications 7. Performance measurements for cloud-based multimedia systems 8. Reliability, security and privacy for cloud-based multimedia system Tentative Schedule: Paper Submission Deadline: August 1, 2012 1st Notification of acceptance: November 1, 20122 Submission due date of revised paper: December 15, 2012 2nd Notification of acceptance: February 1, 2013 Submission of final revised paper: March 1, 2013 Publication date: TBD by EiC Submission & Review Instructions: All papers submitted to this Special Issue will undergo further reviews by at least 3 independent reviewers. All manuscripts should be submitted electronically to the IEEE Systems Journal by August 1, 2012 (http://ieeesystemsjournal.org/login.php).
