Guest Editorial - Special section on cloud-based mobile media: Infrastructure, services, and applications
It is the aim of this special section to report on the latest research that explores various aspects of cloud-based mobile media. Through an open call for papers, we received 40 submissions. Fourteen (14) papers were accepted for final publication after two rounds of highly competitive reviews. The final papers were selected on the basis of originality and significance of the technical work, as well as relevance to the theme topic. The papers in this special section span a wide range of novel algorithms, techniques, applications, and system-level solutions. They naturally fall into two categories: addressing existing challenges or exploring emerging opportunities.
