			CALL FOR PAPERS
****************************************************************



    Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Computing in Image
   Processing, Video Processing, and Multimedia (PDIVM'2002)

                  to be held in conjunction with  
 International Parallel and Distributed Processing Symposium IPDPS
                  Fort Lauderdale, April 15-19, 2002 


The workshop will occupy one full day of the International Parallel and
Distributed Processing Symposium IPDPS'2002. There will be no separate 
registration for the workshop. Accepted papers will be published 
by IEEE CS Press (a CD-ROM with a printed abstracts book).
A special issue of the journal Parallel and Distributed Computing
Practices (PDCP) will be devoted to extended and revised versions
of accepted PDIVM papers.


			**************
			    TOPICS
			**************

In the recent years, computing with visual and multimedial data has
emerged as a key technology in many areas. However, the creation, processing,
and management of these data types require an enormous computational effort,
often too high for single processor architectures. Therefore, this fact
taken together with the inherent data parallelism in these data types makes
image processing, video processing, and multimedia natural application areas
for parallel and distributed computing.

This workshop brings together practitioners and researchers working in all 
aspects of parallel and distributed computing in these fields. The workshop
will serve as a forum for exchange of novel ideas on corresponding hardware 
developments, software tools, system solutions, and all types of applications.


*) Parallel and distributed architectures and algorithms
*) Dynamically reconfigurable architectures
*) Parallel DSP systems and Media processors
*) Application specific parallel architectures
*) Languages, software environments and programming tools
*) Parallel video and multimedia servers
*) Networked multimedia systems
*) Applications, e.g. remote sensing, medical imaging, 
   satellite image processing, set-top boxes, computer graphics,
   virtual reality, HDTV, mobile multimedia, cameras
