We can take papers till the end of July or early August. The DCV02 workshop addresses a broad range of technical interests in digital and computational video technology, of which MPEG-4 video is one of the most important elements. We encourage researchers to submit papes and to organize sessions in the areas of MPEG-4 video coding/decoding, networked video, synthetic video and animation, object-based video coding, mobile visual communications, digital TV, studio video, and many other topics and applications related to MPEG-4. You are welcome to submit papers and/or to attend the conference. Thanks, Nam Ling Program Co-Chair, DCV02 >>> Shaheen Mohamed A 06/20/02 02:37PM >>> Subject: Digital Computational Video 2002 Dear Friends, I would like to invite you, your group, and your students to submit recent research and development results to the third Workshop on Digital and Computational Video.

Sounds like it. If you are not in the video surveillance business, you may want to add Audio to your system (and you may even like audio if you *are* in the surveillance business). These companies also seem entitled to distribute the first 50,000 systems for free. But given the fact that you only mention the caps and not the per en/de-coder royalties, you must be thinking Big.

The usage fee concerns have been substantially addressed. Other positive aspects are the inclusion of terms for MPEG-4 Systems and the fact that newer MPEG-4 Profiles, e.g. Advanced Simple, are covered by the license at no extra cost, offering the industry a one stop shop for licensing MPEG-4. "I am delighted that terms are finally known", said Rob Koenen, President of M4IF. "This rings the starting bell for the whole broadcast and multimedia industry to start releasing MPEG-4 products and services. The licenses are the long-expected prerequisite for MPEG-4 being fully accepted and deployed." "It's good that we now have version 1.0 of the licensing product - it can be sold. It does not yet cover all requirements, but I am confident that MPEG LA and the licensors will work with potential licensees, as they have done to date, to come up with a version 2.0 that covers more service- and usage models", said Koenen. Although there is no single, comprehensive, open alternative for all markets, there are alternatives in each of them. The MPEG-4 industry needs a license that allows it to offer competitive products and services in all of MPEG-4's target markets, consistent with the opportunity presented by MPEG-4 as a horizontal, cross-platform standard. M4IF hosts a discussion on issues relating to the adoption of MPEG-4, including MPEG-4 licensing, at discuss@lists.m4if.org. Anyone can subscribe to this open mailing list at http://www.m4if.org/public/publiclistreg.html About MPEG-4 MPEG-4 is the interactive coding standard for all digital multimedia platforms. Developed by the "Moving Picture Experts Group" that designed MPEG-2 (the digital television standard), MPEG-1 and MP3. Being object-based and extending beyond video and audio, MPEG-4 supports rich, interactive, standards-based multimedia from low bandwidths to transparent quality. About M4IF M4IF represents more than 100 companies from diverse industries evenly distributed across North America, Europe and Asia, addressing MPEG-4 adoption issues that go beyond the charter of ISO/IEC MPEG. Activities of the forum include an interoperability program, certification, several working groups, access to ISO/MPEG committee members, and an annual conference (WEMP-4).

THE MPEG-4 BOOK Edited by Fernando Pereira & Touradj Ebrahimi Published by Prentice Hall PTR http://www.phptr.com/ptrbooks/ptr_0130616214.html MPEG-4 represents a breakthrough in multimedia, delivering not just outstanding compression but also a fully interactive user experience. In THE MPEG-4 BOOK, two leaders of the MPEG-4 standards community offer a comprehensive, targeted guide to the MPEG-4 standard - and its use in cutting-edge applications. Fernando Pereira and Touradj Ebrahimi, together with a unique collection of key MPEG experts, demonstrate how MPEG-4 addresses tomorrow's multimedia applications more successfully than any previous standard. They review every element of the standard to offer you a book that covers: o Synthetic and natural audio and video object coding, description and synchronization o BIFS-the MPEG-4 language for scene description and interaction o The extensible MPEG-4 textual format XMT o Transport and delivery of MPEG-4 content o MPEG-J: using Java classes within MPEG-4 content o A complete overview of MPEG-4 Profiles and Levels o Verification tests The authors also walk through the MPEG-4 Systems Reference Software offering powerful real-world insights for every product developer, software professional, engineer, and researcher involved with MPEG-4 and state-of-the-art multimedia delivery. -- Fernando Manuel Bernardo Pereira, Ph.D., Professor Instituto Superior T?cnico - Instituto de Telecomunica??es Av.

M4IF visitors receive a 10% discount, and members a 20% discount, recognizing the effort by many M4IF members to getting this book written. While the pages are still being built, the 10% discount offer is already available at the link Fernando provided below. Members have to practice a few more days of patience (unless they are willing to settle for 10% :-). See http://www.phptr.com/ptrbooks/ptr_0130616214.html for the offer. This is a good moment to thank the editors, Touradj Ebrahimi and notably Fernando Pereira (who spent many many weekends and nights) for completing this huge and extremely important task. Your reward will be in the large readership for this Reference Book. Also all the authors are to be thanked. They do not expect any financial compensation, but have committed to this task to evangelize what they believe is important - an open and interoperable multimedia ecosystem. Having been involved in the production of this book, I can highly recommend it to anyone who wants to go beyond reading the standard itself (or to those who don't even want to try :-).
