About the Conference:

The multimedia landscape reflects a dynamic and ever-expanding ecosystem. Video content continued to dominate the digital realm, constituting more than 80% of global internet traffic, with YouTube standing out as a platform where users collectively upload a staggering 500 hours of video every minute. Social media platforms, including Instagram and Snapchat, showcased the power of visual communication, with users sharing over 100 million photos and 3 billion snaps daily. While specific numbers regarding virtual and augmented reality were not available, the increasing interest and investment in these technologies indicated a rising trend towards immersive multimedia experiences. Streaming services like Netflix played a pivotal role in shaping internet traffic patterns, contributing significantly to the multimedia data surge. The mobile landscape witnessed a substantial increase in data consumption, driven by users' growing penchant for multimedia content on smartphones. The total global storage for multimedia data reached the zettabyte scale, fuelled largely by the proliferation of cloud storage services. Digital photography, with billions of daily uploads, continued to be a cornerstone of online expression. User-generated content platforms and podcasts experienced exponential growth, fostering a vibrant ecosystem of multimedia content creation. As a collective force, multimedia traffic, encompassing activities like video streaming and online gaming, emerged as a key driver shaping the landscape of global internet usage. The International Conference on Multimedia Computing, Networking and Applications (MCNA) is a premier forum for researchers, practitioners, and educators to present and discuss the latest advancements, challenges, and future directions in the field of multimedia computing, networking, and applications.
