Overview<br />
---------------------------------<br />
<br />
The new multimedia standards (for example, MPEG-21) facilitate the seamless integration of multiple modalities into interoperable<br />
multimedia frameworks, transforming the way people work and interact with multimedia data. These key technologies and multimedia solutions interact<br />
and collaborate with each other in increasingly effective ways, contributing to the multimedia revolution and having a significant impact across<br />
a wide spectrum of consumer, business, healthcare, education, and governmental domains. <br />
<br />
This conference provides an opportunity for academic and industry professionals to discuss recent progress in the area of multimedia<br />
and ubiquitous environment including models and systems, new directions, novel applications associated with the utilization and acceptance of ubiquitous computing devices and systems.<br />
<br />
The goals of this conference are to provide a complete coverage of the areas outlined and to bring together the researchers from <br />
academic and industry as well as practitioners to share ideas, challenges, and solutions relating to the multifaceted aspects of this field.<br />
<br />
