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.

MoMM'2008 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.
