Multimedia sensor services and technologies play an important role in seamlessly providing andmanaging health, sports, and other services to anyone, everywhere, and anytime. Media sensors are usually equipped with cameras, microphones, and other devices that produce media content and services. Such services and technologies enable caregivers and related professionals to have immediate access to required information for efficient decision making. Since media sensing technology development is growing, many research opportunities are emerging in a broad spectrum of application domains.

Description:
The International Olympic Committee's World Conference on Prevention of Injury and Illness in Sport, the third in a series of triennial international conferences, was held in Monaco in April 2011. This conference is now the leading research event for many sports injury prevention and sports medicine researchers, and was well attended by over 940 delegates from 85 countries. A particularly pleasing part of the programme was the large emphasis of a number of sessions (including a keynote, several symposia and proffered papers) on the primary prevention of sports injuries, particularly issues relating to the delivery, implementation and uptake of preventive measures in this important context of injury. Abstracts from this meeting have been published in the April Injury Prevention and Health Promotion issue of the British Journal of Sports Medicine (http://bjsm.bmj.com/content/45/4.toc) and online presentations are available for viewing at the conference website (http://www.ioc-preventionconference.org/).
