=========================================================================================================
This workshop targets novel issues in immersive media networking where 
IP offers flexibility in designing novel optimal communication systems
for various multimedia data representations and encoding schemes. 
Transmission and adaptation of coded media to cope with heterogeneous 
communication networks,
diverse terminal equipment and user interaction is an open topic where 
sound contributions are expected. The workshop will include both service 
personalisation
and QoS/QoE (Quality of Service/Quality of Experience) assurance by 
seeking for efficient solutions in the fields of : i) server-side 
adaptation,
for optimisation of one-to-many single-stream media content, such as 
multicast streaming; ii) In-network adaptation, where multimedia 
streams, especially 3D streams,
are processed by the network elements themselves, an approach that is 
best suited for multicast traffic, where different delivery paths may 
have different capacities;
and iii) Client-side adaptation, in the case where dissimilar media 
streams are to be re-transmitted or re-distributed in a local manner 
(e.g., within a home network).
Novel QoE-aware networking frameworks are also addressed, where 
innovative adaptation and congestion control mechanisms are devised to 
optimise multimedia delivery
over future media networks across heterogeneous and diverse 
environments. Since QoE is not only influenced by dynamic networking 
conditions, but also by the quality
and perceptual relevance of each element of the coded source stream 
(e.g., stereoscopic view, audio channel), cross-layer methods shall be 
devised in order to make
QoE metrics available to network control and adaptation mechanisms. The 
workshop will consider the ecosystem for the delivery of Media Content 
across ubiquitous
networking environments. This includes heterogeneous wireless networks 
(e.g. WLAN, WiMAX, LTE, 4G), Broadcasting (e.g. DVB), IP-based networks 
(e.g. information
centric networks, P2P) as well as Future Internet Media architectures.

Major topics of interest:
 Future Media Internet architectures
 Information Centric Networks for Immersive Media
 QoE modeling, evaluation, monitoring and control
 Scalable multimedia coding
 Multiple multimedia descriptions for wireless communications
 Surrounding, immersive and interactive multimedia environments
 Community-focused interactive media systems
 Scalable video coding for wireless communication channels
 Transcoding for heterogeneous wireless channels interoperability
 Mobile multimedia multicast
