[WM]: Workshop in Multimedia Content Protection and Security
Dear Colleagues,
Please advertise the following Workshop CFP among your colleagues =
and
friends. It is held in conjuction with ACM Multimedia 2006.
My apologies for multiple postings

Workshop on Multimedia Content Protection and Security
http://stargate.ecn.purdue.edu/~ips/acm-sec/
http://stargate.ecn.purdue.edu/~ October =
28, 2006
Santa Barbara, CA, USA
Held in conjunction with the 2006 ACM Multimedia Conference
We are =91Living la Vida Digital=92 -- in the shadow an =
ever-growing
mountain of digital data, and advances in technology enable media =
delivery
scenarios that were not feasible before; today=92s service =
providers and
content providers must embrace new business models in order to attract =
and
sustain consumers. But as the volumes of data grow, so does the =
importance
of, and challenges associated with, multimedia content protection =
and
security. To address these challenges, it is imperative to devise =
effective
and flexible solutions. New technologies offer convenient ways =
to
distribute and consume digital media; yet these new technologies also =
make
it relatively easy to quickly and flawlessly copy digital data, =
posing
tremendous challenges to protecting intellectual property rights.
Multimedia security standards aim to define specifications =
that
facilitate effective and flexible content protection schemes and =
promote
interoperability among applications. While that is the Holy =
Grail,
developing secure multimedia applications and solutions in a =
distributed
environment with competing technologies and emerging standards is =
an
enormous challenge.
During this workshop, we will explore ways in which a combination =
of
emerging standards, emerging media formats, innovative solutions =
and
technologies that enable new markets might drive both new applications =
and
entirely new ways of managing content. We will provide an =
excellent
overview of the relevant research, business and consumer challenges, =
as
well as the potential impact of emerging optical media formats. We =
expect
to cover multimedia security from several perspectives: =
researchers,
consumers and content/service providers.
Call for Papers
The intention of this workshop is to bring together researchers,
developers, and practitioners from multimedia security communities
(academia and industry) to share a vision of =93Multimedia Security and
Content Protection in this Rapidly Growing Digital World=94. That is, =
from
identifying challenging problems that can shape the future of research, =
to
practical applications and/or research that address issues posed by the
convergence of television, computers and the Internet. We welcome papers =
on
applications that combine emerging standards, emerging media formats,
innovating solutions, and technologies that enable new markets. This
workshop will provide an excellent overview of the relevant research,
business, and consumer challenges, as well as the potential impact of
emerging optical media formats. We expect to cover multimedia security =
from
the several perspectives: researchers, consumers, and content/service
providers.
We encourage submissions on papers on all topics in the general areas of
multimedia security, multimedia content protection, emerging standards,
interoperability, and practical applications issues. Papers that bridge
across these areas are of special interest. Topics of interest include, =
but
are not limited to:

We also welcome authors from industry to submit papers that describe
solutions in all the areas above. These papers should point out the
technical aspects of the work, such as:
=B7 Relevant implementation issues
=B7 Lessons learned
=B7 Problems addressed by the solution
=B7 Supporting technologies
=B7 Interoperability issues
Submission Details:
Papers should be at most 10 pages long prepared in the ACM style and
written in acceptable English. Short papers (5 pages) are acceptable. =
All
submissions will be peer-reviewed by at least 3 members of the program
committee. Papers submitted must be original unpublished work and must =
not
be simultaneously submitted or under review for any other workshop,
conference or journal (including ACM Multimedia). Any paper found to be =
in
violation of these rules will be rejected without review. (We may share
information about submissions with the program chairs of other =
conferences
considering papers during the review period.) Papers accompanied by
non-disclosure agreement forms will not be considered. All submissions =
are
treated as confidential, both as a matter of policy and in accordance =
with
the U.S. Copyright Act of 1976.
