Mobile media communication, processing, and analysis: A review of recent advances
In this paper, we review recent advances in mobile media communication, processing, and analysis. To identify the opportunities and challenges in fast growing mobile media computing, we discuss several emerging topics including mobile visual search, retargeting, mobile video streaming, and cloud based mobile media computing. According to the infrastructure of mobile devices vs. servers, we come up with essential concerns in mobile media computing such as wireless bandwidth consumption, mobile energy saving, media adaptation for better quality of services, the computational load shift from mobiles to servers, etc. With booming mobile Apps on diverse media consumption, it is envisioned that mobile media research and development is bringing about significant achievements in traditional topics of communication, processing, and analytics.
