IEEE ICC 2012 Workshop on Realizing Advanced Video Optimized Wireless Networks Co-located with ICC 2012, Ottawa, Canada, USA.

Video content delivery over wireless networks is expected to grow exponentially in the coming years. It is driven by applications including streaming TV content to mobile devices, internet video, video on demand, personal video streaming, video sharing applications (from mobile to mobile), video conferencing, live video broadcasting (cloud to mobile as well as mobile to cloud), video Twitter, and video blogging. In fact, a recent study (Cisco Visual Networking Index) predicts that the mobile video traffic will exceed 50% of the total mobile data traffic in 2011 and will be approximately two-thirds of the global mobile data traffic by 2015.  Improvements in video compression and wireless spectral efficiency will not be sufficient to accommodate this potential demand.  Although there has been a wealth of research in the area of joint source-channel coding and wireless video optimization over the past decades, few of these techniques have yet to be realized in practical networks
!

This workshop will bring together academic and industrial researchers to focus on the intersection between theory and practice of bringing advanced video optimization techniques to wireless networks in practical ways. There will be multi-disciplinary set of presentations, panel discussions, and keynote presentations to cover the range of topics related to realizing advanced video optimized wireless networks.

We invite contributions that answer the question of how to bring video optimization techniques in a practical way to future wireless networks, while taking into account existing network and layering topologies, regulatory constraints, and complexity limitations. What technologies and innovative practical ideas have the most promise? What new ideas could help lead to practical improvements in video capacity for existing and future networks? Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:

Wireless Video Optimizations and Error Resiliency
*Multi-user distortion aware resource allocation and cross-layer optimizations.
*Joint source-channel coding using perceptual video quality distortion metrics.
*Practical ways to realize wireless video optimizations in a layer-aware fashion, including information exchange methods between layers.
*Machine learning techniques for dynamically optimizing wireless video.

Adaptive video streaming and transport for wireless networks
*Dynamic Adaptive HTTP Streaming (DASH) and other HTTP-based adaptive streaming optimizations for wireless networks.
*Scalable compression techniques for practical traffic shaping in the network.
*Energy efficient wireless media transmission.
*Analog and digital network coding for wireless media.

Novel wireless network architectures optimized for video distribution
*Practical cooperative network architectures (hierarchical, heterogeneous, peer-to-peer, hybrid broadband/broadcast) specifically for optimized video delivery.
*Relaying for wireless media transmission.
*Distributed caching techniques for popular video content.

The workshop accepts only novel, previously unpublished papers. Prospective authors are encouraged to submit a 5-page standard IEEE conference style paper to this workshop (including all text, figures, and references) through the EDAS submission system. (If any problem during submission is encountered, please contact the workshop chair). One additional page may be allowed but with additional publication fee. Accepted papers must be presented at the workshop. The presenter must register for the workshop before the deadline for author registration. Failure to register before the deadline will result in automatic withdrawal of the paper from the workshop proceedings and the program. All papers selected for publication will be included in the IEEE digital library.
