DMS2011 CALL FOR PAPERS
The 17th International Conference on Distributed Multimedia Systems
(URL: http://www.ksi.edu/seke/dms11.html )
Convitto della Calza (http://www.calza.it/it/ ) Florence, Italy
August 18 to 20, 2011
With today's proliferation of multimedia data (e.g., images,
animations, video, and sound), comes the challenge of using such
information to facilitate data analysis, modeling, presentation,
interaction and programming, particularly for end-users who are
domain experts, but not IT professionals. The main theme of the 17th
International Conference on Distributed Multimedia Systems (DMS'2011)
is multimedia inspired computing. The conference organizers seek
contributions of high quality papers, panels or tutorials, addressing
any novel aspect of computing (e.g., programming language or
environment, data analysis, scientific visualization, etc.) that
significantly benefits from the incorporation/integration of
multimedia data (e.g., visual, audio, pen, voice, image, etc.), for
presentation at the conference and publication in the proceedings.
Both research and case study papers or demonstrations describing
results in research area as well as industrial development cases and
experiences are solicited. The use of prototypes and demonstration
video for presentations is encouraged.
The DMS conference is closely coordinated with the International
Journal of Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering, the
Journal of Visual Languages and Computing and the International
Journal of Distance Education Technologies. Usually the best ranked
papers from the conference, after rigorous reviews, extensive
revisions and further enhancements, will appear in one or more
special issues of the above journals. Papers suggested for the
special issue(s) will be reviewed by external reviewers following the
standard procedure of review stipulated by the respective journal.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Distributed Multimedia Technology
media coding, acquisition and standards
QoS and Quality of Experience control
digital rights management and conditional access solutions
privacy and security issues
mobile devices and wireless networks
mobile intelligent applications
sensor networks, environment control and management
