Book
Objectives & Mission:
Pervasive computing, often synonymously
called ubiquitous computing, is an emerging field of research that brings
in revolutionary paradigms for computing models in the 21st century.
Pervasive computing is the trend towards increasingly ubiquitous
connected computing devices in the environment, a trend being brought
about by a convergence of advanced electronic - and particularly, wireless
- technologies and the Internet. Recent advances in pervasive
computers, networks, telecommunications, and information technology, along
with the proliferation of multimedia mobile devices—such as laptops, iPods,
personal digital assistants (PDA), and cellular telephones—have stimulated
the development of intelligent pervasive multimedia applications. These
key technologies are creating a multimedia revolution that will have
significant impact across a wide spectrum of consumer, business,
healthcare, and governmental domains. Yet many challenges remain,
especially when it comes to efficiently indexing, mining, querying,
searching, and retrieving multimedia data.
In this book, we would like to
gather the latest advances of various topics in intelligent multimedia
for pervasive computing and related areas to showcase
their results, launch new ideas, as well as to interact with colleagues
from these areas
and report how organizations can gain
competitive advantages by applying the different techniques in the
real-world scenarios. Survey articles that emphasize the research and
application of intelligent multimedia in pervasive
computing in a particular domain are greatly
welcome.
