International Journal of Multimedia Intelligence and Security

 

Special Issue on: "Advances in Multimedia Information and Communication Security"

Guest Editor: Prof. Peter Stavroulakis, Technical University of Crete, Greece

Major advances have taken place over the last few years in the development of multimedia integrated systems as it refers but is not limited to text, image, video, audio, graphics, animation, etc. Major emphasis has been placed on how to realise intelligent multimedia computing and communication for a more effective use of existing resources as the underlying technology has been advancing. The matter of accuracy/security for the multimedia information transmitted and of the security of the communication system used from source to receiver have become a major issue in many practical multimedia applications especially as they are used in large scale world class events.

This special issue is intended to foster state-of-the-art research in the area of multimedia information and communication security related to applications. The published papers are expected to present high quality results for tackling problems arising from the ever-growing demand for the design of secure information systems. The issue will serve as a landmark source for education, information, and reference to professors, researchers and graduate students interested in updating their knowledge about the application of multimedia intelligence and security.
