CALL FOR PAPERS - ESTIMEDIA'05

WORKSHOP ON EMBEDDED SYSTEMS FOR REAL-TIME MULTIMEDIA
    New York Metropolitan Area, USA
September 22-23, 2005
    Organized under CODES+ISSS 2005

Embedded multimedia systems represent an important segment of today's
electronic industry. While there has been a notable growth in the use
and application of these systems, the design process has become a
remarkably difficult problem due to the increasing design complexity
and shortening time-to-market. Also, mixed hardware/software solutions
are increasingly common in multimedia systems so the separation
between the hardware engineers and software architects is simply
disappearing. This workshop is meant to bring together people from
different multimedia related research communities who have worked
separately yet not sufficiently interacted: software, architectures,
circuits, real-time, DSP, compilers, applications, etc. After a very
successful debut in 2003, we hope that this third edition will
consolidate the opportunities for specialists from academia and
industry to contribute to defining the design methodologies of future
multimedia systems. Topics of interest with respect to embedded
multimedia systems include but are not limited to:

* Specification and modeling of multimedia systems
* Multimedia systems design methodologies and case studies
* Circuits and architectures for embedded multimedia architectures
* Emerging trends (Systems-on-Chip, Networks-on-Chip)
* Validation and verification
* Software optimization and compiler techniques
* Timing aspects of media streams
* Scheduling of media processing
* Resource and QoS management methods
* Temporal estimation and protection of media streams
* Real-time kernels, OS and middleware support

Important dates:

  Submission deadline: June 27, 2005
