applications, and other related areas of computing. Traditionally the
conference features presentations of full and short papers, a keynote
talk, and a panel of experts. Presenters are encouraged to make
multimedia presentations and demonstrate their proposed solutions.
Authors of a few accepted papers with the highest quality are invited
to submit the extended version of their papers to a special issue of
ACM/Springer Multimedia Systems Journal.
