The speed and the quality of expanding and creating a vast variety of
multimedia services like voice, email, short messages, Internet access, m-
commerce, to mobile video conferencing, streaming video and audio has brought
true mobile multimedia experiences to mobile customers. Due to constant
changing environments, limited battery life and diverse data types, Mobile
Multimedia implies considerable challenges to operators, infrastructure
builders in terms of ensuring fast, reliable services and accommodating the
quick growing global customer needs. MoMM2009 aims to provide an international
forum by researchers, students, and professionals for presenting recent
research results on mobile computing and multimedia, and to bring together
experts from both academia and industry for the exchange of ideas and
discussion on future challenges in mobile computing and multimedia.
