ABSTRACT
New media applications and services are revolutionising social interaction and user experience in both society and in wide ranging industry sectors. The rapid emergence of pervasive human and environment sensing technologies, novel immersive presentation devices and high performance, globally connected network and cloud infrastructures is generating huge opportunities for application providers, service provider and content providers. The experiments highlight the features of multimedia systems and the future opportunities for companies, as the Internet continues to transition towards the increasingly connected world of Internet of Things and Big Data. Multimedia is the combination of multiple forms of content and is a fundamental element of applications in areas such as communication, entertainment, education, research and engineering. The convergence of technologies for distributed multi-stakeholder systems, data analytics and user experience is dramatically changing the way multimedia systems need to produce, deliver and consume content.
