CALL FOR PAPERS

*7th IEEE Workshop on Embedded Systems for Real-Time Multimedia*

October 15-16, 2009, Grenoble, France

IEEE ESTIMedia ‘09 is organized as part of the Embedded Systems Week 2009

http://www.science.uva.nl/events/ESTIMedia09/

IEEE ESTIMedia aims to bring together people from different 
multimediarelated research communities who have worked separately, but 
did not interact sufficiently to address the challenges facing the 
design of hardware and software for multimedia systems. All accepted 
papers will appear in the workshop proceedings (electronic only) to be 
published by the IEEE.

A special issue of ACM Transactions on Embedded Computing Systems (TECS) 
with the best papers from ESTIMedia '08 will appear later this year.

*AREAS OF INTEREST* (but not restricted to)

- Specification and modeling of multimedia systems

- Multimedia systems design methodologies and case studies

- Circuits and architectures for embedded multimedia architectures

- Multimedia processors and reconfigurable architectures

- Emerging trends (SoCs, NoCs, Game applications, etc.)

- 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

*PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINES*

Both research and application-oriented papers are welcome. Research 
papers should describe original research, such as new ideas, promising 
approaches and experiences with practical systems. Application-oriented 
papers should describe interesting technical aspects of real-life 
applications, prototypes, experiences, and standards. All papers should 
be submitted electronically via the workshop webpage. Papers must be in 
PDF format and should include (1) title, (2) authors and affiliation, 
(3) e-mail address of the contact author. Submissions must be limited to 
10 pages, single-spaced, double-column IEEE format with 10-point fonts. 
Papers deviating significantly from these paper size and font 
constraints may be rejected without review. All submitted papers should 
have original content that has not been previously published in other 
conferences or journals.

Any questions regarding the submission process may be directed to the 
TPC Co-Chairs Andy D. Pimentel (a.d.pimentel@xxxxxx 
<mailto:a.d.pimentel@xxxxxx>) or Naehyuck Chang (naehyuck@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx 
<mailto:naehyuck@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>).
