>Announcement and Call for Papers and Participation
>Workshop and Exhibition on MPEG-4 at ISCAS 2000
>
>MPEG-4 is the most recent International Standard for
>coding multimedia objects. To energize the development
>of MPEG-4 products and explore the full potential of
>MPEG-4 technologies, a Workshop/Exhibition devoted to
>MPEG-4 will be held from May 28 to May 31, 2000 in
>Geneva, Switzerland. The Workshop/Exhibition is sponsored
>by IEEE Circuits and Systems Society in corporation with
>the MPEG-4 Industry Forum. It will be co-located in time
>and place with IEEE International Symposium on Circuits
>and Systems (ISCAS 2000). It will include short courses
>on MPEG-4, demonstrations/exhibitions that showcase
>prototypes and products using MPEG-4, and technical
>sessions on the state-of-the-art research topics related
>to MPEG-4. The Workshop papers will be published in the
>Proceedings of ISCAS 2000. A selected number of Workshop
>papers will be invited to submit an expanded version for
>publication in a special issue of IEEE Transactions on
>Circuits and Systems for Video Technology (CSVT).
>Contributions are solicited in the following categories:
>
>Technical Papers
>
>Original technical papers are solicited on the research
>topics related to MPEG-4, such as encoding optimization
>algorithms for MPEG-4, innovative architectures and designs
>for implementing MPEG-4, and creative applications of using
>MPEG-4. Advanced research papers addressing similar
>functionalities of MPEG-4 are also solicited in video coding,
>visual object coding, still texture coding, SNHC, audio coding,
>systems, Internet streaming, and A/V content management and
>protection. Papers without comparison results with MPEG-4 tools
>will not be handled by the Workshop but may be referred to ISCAS
>Multimedia and Communications Track for review.
