Abstract

<p align="justify"><font face="Book Antiqua">Today, the design process for high&#8211;end multimedia systems has become a crucial bottleneck due to the increasing complexity of both the software and the underlying hardware, coupled with shortened time&#8211;to&#8211;market pressures&#046; While there has been a notable growth in the use and applications of multimedia systems and in the evolution of system&#8211;on&#8211;chip design technology, there are still enormous opportunities for improving design productivity in this domain&#046; Given this backdrop, the aim of this workshop is to bring together people from different multimedia&#8211;related research communities (e&#046;g, software, architectures, real&#8211;time systems, DSP, compilers, multimedia applications) who have worked separately, but did not interact sufficiently to address the challenges facing the design of hardware and software for multimedia systems&#046;<br>After a very successful debut in 2003, consolidated in successive years, we hope that this seventh edition will present a good opportunity for specialists from academia and industry to contribute to this exciting research area&#046; The program will bring together original work from both, academic and industrial research and development&#046; As in the previous editions, papers will be accepted for 30&#8211;min oral presentation followed by interactive poster sessions&#046;<br>All accepted papers will appear in the workshop proceedings (electronic only) to be published by the IEEE&#046;<br></font></p> <font face="Book Antiqua"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">A special issue of </span></font><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font&#8211;family: book antiqua;">ACM Transactions on Embedded Computing Systems (TECS)</span><font face="Book Antiqua"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> with the best papers from ESTIMedia &#8242;08 will appear this year&#046;</span></font>
