within the framework
International Multiconference on Computer Science and Information Technology
in Mragowo, Poland, October 12-14, 2009
* CONFERENCE BACKGROUND AND GOALS
Recent advances in pervasive computers, networks, telecommunications, and information
technology, along with the proliferation of multimedia mobile devices - such as laptops,
iPods, personal digital assistants (PDA), and cellular telephones - have stimulated
the development of intelligent pervasive multimedia applications. These key technologies
are creating a multimedia revolution that will have significant impact across a wide
spectrum of consumer, business, healthcare, and governmental domains. Yet many challenges
remain, especially when it comes to efficiently indexing, mining, querying, searching,
and retrieving multimedia data.
The Multimedia - Processing and Applications 2009 (MMAP 2009) Symposium addresses several
themes related to theory and practice within multimedia domain. The enormous interest
in multimedia from many activity areas (medicine, entertainment, education) led researchers
and industry to make a continuous effort to create new, innovative multimedia algorithms
and application.As a result the conference goal is to bring together researchers, engineers
and practitioners in order to communicate their newest and original contributions on topics
that have been identified (see below). We are also interested in looking at service
architectures, protocols, and standards for multimedia communications - including middleware -
along with the related security issues, such as secure multimedia information sharing.
Finally, we encourage submissions describing work on novel applications that exploit the
unique set of advantages offered by multimedia computing techniques, including home-networked
entertainment and games.
However, innovative contributions that don't fit into these areas will also be considered
because they might be of benefit to conference attendees.
* CALL FOR PAPERS
MMAP 2009 is a major forum for researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and
government to present, discuss, and exchange ideas that address real-world problems with
real-world solutions.
The MMAP 2009 Symposium welcomes submissions of original papers concerning all aspects of
multimedia domain ranging from concepts and theoretical developments to advanced
technologies and innovative applications.
MMAP 2009 invites original previously unpublished contributions that are not submitted
concurrently to a journal or another conference.
Papers acceptance and publication will be judged based on their relevance to the symposium
theme, clarity of presentation, originality and accuracy of results and proposed solutions.
* TOPICS OF INTEREST
Topics of interest are related to Multimedia Processing and Applications including, but
are not limited to the following areas:
Image and Video Processing
Speech, Audio and Music Processing
3D and Stereo Imaging
Distributed Multimedia Systems
Multimedia Databases, Indexing, Recognition and Retrieval
Data Mining
Multimedia in E-Learning, E-Commerce and E-Society Applications
Multimedia in Medical Applications
Multimedia Authentication and Watermarking
Entertainment and games
Multimedia Interfaces
* PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION
* Papers will be refereed and accepted on the basis of their scientific merit and relevance
to the symposium. All submissions are subject to a blind refereeing process.
* Accepted and presented papers will be published as paper in the Conference Proceedings
and included in the IEEE Xplore® database.
* Extended versions of selected best papers will be published in a special issue of JDIM:
Journal of Digital Information Management ISSN 0972-7272.
* Authors should submit draft papers (as Postscript, PDF of MSWord file).
* The total length of a paper should not exceed 10 pages (LNCS style).
