                                 CALL FOR PAPERS

Important Dates
---------------
Submission Deadline (HARD): February 14, 2003 (midnight PST)
Acceptance Notification   : March 31, 2003
Camera Ready Deadline     : April 25, 2003

Objectives
----------
The 13th International Workshop on Network and Operating Systems Support for
Digital Audio and Video (NOSSDAV) brings together researchers, developers
and practitioners from academia and industry to present and discuss new
ideas and future directions in networking and operating systems support for
all forms of networked human interaction. From large immersive environments
to portable wireless multimedia devices, NOSSDAV covers a broad spectrum of
cutting edge multimedia research that strongly impacts infrastructure and
the human experience.

For 12 years, NOSSDAV has proven to be an outstanding forum for researchers
and developers involved in building innovative multimedia systems, networks,
and applications.  NOSSDAV is strategically positioned at the boundaries of
applications and the operating system/network, bridging the gap between
highly demanding applications and the infrastructure.

NOSSDAV invites submissions on all areas of multimedia, but strongly
encourages submissions in newly emerging specialized areas such as access
grids, advanced telepresence and immersive applications, wireless
multimedia, multimedia security, and embedded multimedia devices (e.g.,
Personal Video Recorders, etc.), among others. While NOSSDAV is primarily a
research forum, innovative experimental commercial designs and prototypes
are also welcome.

To ensure a productive workshop environment, attendance will be limited to
about 75 participants who are active in the field. A key aspect of the
workshop is that it provides extensive discussion periods during which
attendees can informally discuss their current work and future research
directions. Traditionally, NOSSDAV has emphasized high quality experimental
research based on prototype or real systems. NOSSDAV 2003 will continue this
tradition.

Submissions
-----------
Submissions are sought in any area related to Network and Operating Systems
Support for Digital Audio and Video. The topics of interest include, but are
not limited to:

    * ubiquitous multimedia services
    * peer-to-peer multimedia services
    * Internet telephony
    * broadband streaming media content distribution
    * 3D multimedia and (networked) immersive environments
    * interactive network games
    * wireless and ad-hoc network multimedia systems
    * multimedia information appliances and consumer devices
    * collaborative conferencing
    * wireless multimedia
    * access grids
    * embedded multimedia devices (e.g., PVRs)
    * multimedia security
    * sensory interactive applications
    * digital rights management

We solicit submissions of  5-page extended abstracts   of technical
papers, work-in-progress reports, and position statements. Papers should
identify new problems and explain why they are important, challenge
conventional wisdom, advocate a specific solution, and/or report on actual
experience with real systems. All submissions will be reviewed by the
members of the program committee. Submissions will be selected on the basis
of their originality, technical merit and topical relevance, as well as the
likelihood that the ideas will lead to insightful technical discussions.
Papers submitted to NOSSDAV must not have been published or submitted
elsewhere. Please do not submit abbreviated versions of journal or
conference papers.

Authors of accepted papers will be invited to present at the workshop and
publish full-length versions of their papers in the workshop proceedings.

All submissions must be made through the web. We suggest that authors use
the two-column ACM format for the submissions. Detailed paper submission
guidelines will be available here in January.

Sincerely,

The co-chairs,
Kevin Almeroth, UCSB, <almeroth at cs.ucsb.edu>
Christos Papadopoulos, USC, <christos at isi.edu>
