Date: Mon, 27 Mar 95 21:16:11 EST

Due to the large number of requests, we have decided to extend the
Multimedia'95 paper submission deadline until APRIL 10, 1995 AT 5:00 PM PDT.
All papers MUST BE RECEIVED by this time.  In order to allow sufficient time
for our rigorous review process, this deadline is firm; NO EXCEPTIONS WILL BE
MADE.

We are announcing this extension widely to be fair to all submitters, who may
wish to take the extra time to improve their submissions.  Re-submission will
be permitted, but the accompanying Paper Submission Cover Sheet must clearly
identify the title and authors of the earlier version of the submission.
Authors should consult the WWW at http://acm.org/MM95/ or send email to
[email-masked] for paper submission guidelines and cover sheet forms.

Please forward this message to friends, colleagues, or other interested
parties.

The IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications
announces a forthcoming issue on

Distributed Multimedia Systems and Technology

Advances in high-speed networking and storage technologies
and increasing demand for timely distribution of multimedia
information have resulted in a tremendous interest in variety
of services which will be available in the future
Distributed Multimedia Information Systems (DMIS).
Most of these services will use some form of pre-orchestrated stored
objects, e.g., video-on-demand, digital libraries, virtual reality,
education/training, CAD/CAM, etc.
The pre-orchestrated nature of the information
poses number of challenges in management of distributed data,
temporal synchronization in a distributed environment,
maintaining desired quality of transmission,
desigining appropriate switching and network control,
interoprtability of distributed multimedia sources,
operating system support for DMIS etc.

In this issue of JSAC, we address the networking, distribution
and management issues arising in future DMISs.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

- - Multimedia Networking
- - Performance Considerations for Real-Time Multimedia Protocols
- - Quality of Service for Networked Multimedia Applications
- - Multimedia Services over the Internet and Broadband Networks

- - Spatial/Temporal Models for Distributed Multimedia Information
- - Operating System Supports for Distributed Multimedia Environments
- - Distributed Multimedia Data Management
- - Interoperability Issues among Distributed Multimedia Systems

- - Binding Techniques for Multimedia Traffic
- - Management and Control of Multimedia Services
- - Architectures and Standards for Multimedia Communications
- - Experimental Systems

Authors should follow the IEEE JSAC manuscript format.
Only original manuscripts will be considered.
A manuscript identical to, or largely based
on, a conference paper must be so identified.

Prospective authors are requested to submit five (5) copies
of their manuscript to one of the guest editors listed below.

	Submission Deadline:            May 1, 1995
        Acceptance Notification:        October 1, 1995
