Call for Long Papers
The 15th Annual ACM International Conference on Multimedia (ACM MM 2007) will be held in Augsburg, Germany, September 23-28, 2007. ACM Multimedia is the premier technical multimedia conference attended by an international community of researchers, practitioners, and designers from both academia and industry.
ACM MM 2007 invites your participation in the premier annual multimedia conference, covering all aspects of multimedia computing: from underlying technologies to applications, theoretical foundations to experimental systems, and servers to networks to devices. MM 2007 seeks high-quality, original papers that will set the standard in the field and stimulate the trends for years to come. We especially encourage introduction of novel media such as haptic, olfactory, multiple sensors, etc. and multimodal, generic, on-line adaptable and human-centered approaches.
Technical Program
The technical program will consist of plenary sessions and talks with topics of interest in:
- Multimedia content access, including multimedia semantics, aesthetics, modeling, assimilation/fusion, audio/video/multi-modal processing, multi-sensor processing, multimedia content description and indexing, multimedia digital rights management, content-based retrieval with emphasis on multiple and novel media, combined local and distributed (networked) content indexing. Papers on theoretical foundations of content access methodologies, as well as on generic and on-line adaptable content analysis and indexing approaches are encouraged.
(Technical Program Committee for Content Track)
- Multimedia tools, applications, and end user systems, including new UI metaphors, authoring and design tools, experiential systems, sociable media, collaborative systems, multi-modal interaction, virtual environments, and multimedia in education, entertainment, and security. Empirical studies and new theories related to these topics are encouraged.
(Technical Program Committee for Applications Track)
- Multimedia networking and systems, including context-aware multimedia communications, Internet telephony, peer-to-peer streaming, audio/video streaming, multimedia content distribution, wireless multimedia, multimedia over mesh/sensor networks, adaptive support for scalable media, Internet protocols, multimedia servers, operating systems, middleware and QoS.
(Technical Program Committee for Systems Track)
- Multimedia interaction, including multimodal human-computer-interaction, experiential and affective issues in multimedia, user, context, and task modeling in multimedia systems, multimedia ubiquitous computing, human interaction modeling from multimedia, multimodal social network analysis, cultural and social issues in multimedia modeling, multimedia collaboration, interactive storytelling, social dynamics modeling and socially aware systems, ethnocomputing.
(Technical Program Committee for Interaction Track)
The above list is not exhaustive. We particularly encourage submissions in new and emerging areas.
Submission Instructions
Prepare a paper (not more than 10 pages) using the ACM template for the conference -- Portable Document Format (PDF) or PostScript (version 2 or later), formatted in two-column conference style. Submissions should present original reports of substantive new work. Papers should properly place the work within the field, cite related work, and clearly indicate the innovative aspects of the work and its contribution to the field. We will not accept any paper which, at the time of submission, is under review for or has already been published or accepted for publication in a journal or another conference. Please see the ACM proceedings template available at http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html. All submitted papers will undergo a double-blind review process.
Please note that the formatting template given above refers to final format of accepted papers. For the purpose of double blind review, please remove names of authors and affiliations from the paper heading, and all references to (your own) papers or systems that may reveal your identity. In place of names of authors and affiliations in the heading, please replace it by the paper id as "Paper xxx". For some references to your own papers, you may want to leave the reference id but remove the details of references by stating: "reference removed for the purpose of anonymous review.
All papers must be submitted through EDAS. Follow the link, create either a new user account or use your existing EDAS account and submit your paper under one of the four tracks. Every paper must be assigned to one of the four tracks!
