Dublin, Ireland, January 6-8, 2014, Co-located with the MMM 2014 Conference
WMPA 2014 school's web page: http://winterschool.mediamixer.eu/
WMPA 2014 aims at offering Masters and PhD students and junior researchers
from all over the world training on the latest technological developments in
the area of multimedia processing (media analysis, media annotation, media
rights management) and of emerging multimedia applications (in the Sensor
Web, audiovisual archives, TV broadcasting, digital preservation and
e-learning domains).
The school will combine delivering in-depth lectures with giving to its
participants the possibility for gaining hands-on experience on the use of
new multimedia processing techniques (e.g. media fragment annotation and
re-use technologies), and on the effectiveness, privacy etc. issues that may
arise. The latest R&D in EU funded projects and latest insights from experts
in the industry domains which stand to benefit from these new technologies
will help students to appreciate the state of the art and future chances for
industry adoption. The school will also support the close interaction
between the students and all participants of the MMM'14 conference; among
other possibilities, all school's students will have the chance to bring a
poster describing their current research work and present it in a joint
winter school – MMM'14 poster session.
