Special Issue on Recent Advances in Cloud-based Multimedia Systems

The main concept of cloud computing is placing the required services on the “cloud”.

Users do not need to understand the cloud infrastructure, nor restrict control within

the clouds, making it possible to offer a scalable Internet service. The benefits of this

service have gained a lot of attention within academic and industrial communities in

areas such as commerce, communication, and software security. Recently consumer

demands for high quality multimedia services have increased, including higher

resolution and more multimedia content. Cloud computing is a key technology that

promises significant decreasing in hardware requirements and computation time. It is

also efficient technology that can be used to search for related multimedia messages

to enable instant results when searching for content, while using the heterogeneous

Internet structure to provide ubiquitous multimedia services.

In this special issue, we solicit original works in all areas of multimedia systems

that leverage cloud-computing technologies. In particular, we seek original work on

identifying new research and development challenges and developing new techniques,

framework, and algorithms in protocol design and performance optimization in

cloud-based multimedia systems. Specific topics include, but not limited to, the

following:

1. Novel cloud-based multimedia system architecture

2. Cloud-based multimedia communication

3. Multimedia resource scheduling and allocation on cloud computing

4. Quality of service for cloud-based multimedia system

5. Robust cloud-based multimedia content transmission

6. Cloud-based multimedia network applications

7. Performance measurements for cloud-based multimedia systems

8. Reliability, security and privacy for cloud-based multimedia system
