Objectives

The Sixth IEEE* International Workshop on Mobile Multimedia 
Communications (MOMUC'99)  will provide an international forum 
for the discussion of research in wireless and mobile multimedia 
communications. The workshop, to be held in San Diego, a city with 
vibrant wireless industries, will bring together researchers, 
developers and practitioners working in all facets of advanced 
mobile multimedia communications. The scope of MOMUC'99 will 
include broadband wireless networking for data and multimedia, 
mobile multimedia systems and applications together with associated 
mobile computing devices, video processing and enabling software 
technologies. 

In the past the workshop has been cross-disciplinary, small and 
well focused, consisting of keynote speakers, panels and solicited
contributions with the emphasis on innovation. As a result, a 
considerable amount of time is devoted to informal discussion. The
Sixth IEEE International Workshop on Mobile Multimedia 
Communications will be limited to 150 participants. 

Previous events include: Tokyo '93, Bristol '95, Princeton '96, Seoul
'97, and Berlin' 98. 

Best student paper prize of $500 from 
C&C Research Laboratories, NEC USA
