Images have been the main propellant for the Internet's popularization.
Expectations for performance and quality of images are driving new
technologies as the space of web-connected business and commercial
imaging solutions grows and as the cost of Web access and high quality
reproduction hardcopy devices drops. New applications are appearing to
take advantage of these opportunities, and exposing new system
requirements.
Internet imaging is different from other imaging applications because an
internet is a network of networks. This entails complications like
unpredictable latency, caching, firewalls, security, platform
heterogeneity, standardization, and others. Furthermore, images can be
still images, animations, or video sequences.
This conference is intended as a forum for discussing these
technologies, applications, and challenges facing them. The participants
will present the most recent developments in the appropriate
representation, communication, and rendering of images using the
Internet. Focus of the conference is on novel means of image capture,
coding, computation and representation specific to the Internet,
efficient transport of images over networks, display and rendering of
image received over networks, and the requirements of applications which
derive value from the use of these technologies. Unmet needs of desired
applications are also relevant. Algorithms, protocols, software,
hardware, communications systems, and applications are appropriate
topics.
Papers are solicited in the following areas, and special attention is
given to new applications and requirements created by opportunities on
the Internet:
*) image processing for Internet, reuse of softcopy and hardcopy images:
data compression and representation, coding for multiresolution or
resolution-independent images
*) imaging issues in content-based indexing, search and retrieval,
indexing video
*) virtual and augmented reality, telemedicine, data visualization,
remote surveillance
*) Internet video, multimedia presentation on the Internet: multimedia
integration, presentation, management, authoring, animation, SMIL, SVG,
VRML, Interactive TV, multimedia presentation formats, presentation
agents, and e-commerce
*) multimedia applications
*) systems issues: color space architectures, distributed color
management, computation for images on the *) Internet, automatic
printing, displays for Internet appliances, e-commerce and e-services
*) network image transport: protocols, XML applications, Web crawling,
caching, and security
*) network computing: distributed computing, performance analysis, fault
tolerance & failure recovery, media synchronization, transaction
managers, directory and agent services
*) social and legal issues and technical solutions for the Internet
including copyright, content rating, *) watermarking, authentication,
non-repudiation, and notification
*) interactive image creation for the Internet: artistic impression, Web
design, special issues for video, *) semiotics, advanced man-machine
interfacing, visual languages, ergonometry
*) publishing on the Internet: graphic arts requirements, commerce
systems, agents, image syndication, leasing, resolution and quality
requirements, movie film digitatization and color restoration,
palettization, file formats, capture systems
*) classifying images: cataloging, categorization, thesauri,
iconography, ontologies, metadata, XML solutions, indexing video
*) cultural heritage applications: image permanence issues, scanning
strategies, cataloging, presentation and publication strategies, DVD-ROM
vs. Internet
A fast Internet connection will be available in the conference room.
