Call for Demo Papers

The ACM SIGMM International Conference on Multimedia Information Retrieval

is the leading forum for information retrieval researchers and practitioners

in any area of multimedia technology to explore cutting-edge ideas and

results, and to exchange techniques, tools, and experiences. During the

conference there will be a technical demonstration session collocated with

the poster sessions.



This demo session is meant to allow researchers and practitioners that have

implemented software systems and libraries to describe the design, development

and functionality of their work in an interactive setting. The committee

encourages submission of emerging technology and early prototypes but will

also consider mature systems with experimental features. Submissions are

particularly encouraged in the areas of biomedical multimedia retrieval,

3D multimedia and immersive technologies, wireless multimedia applications,

multimedia-based security applications, multimedia databases, content analysis,

content-based retrieval, multimedia search, media processing, entertainment,

multimedia social networking, multimedia advertising and innovative applications.

Each submission should consist of a 4-page paper (which will be included in

the proceedings if accepted) formatted in the ACM style, and a URL link or a

presentation or video or an interactive system. Please email your demo papers

directly to Industrial and Demo Programs Chairs (Drs. Jinbo Bi and Xin Chen)

for consideration. The paper should be prepared in the same style as the regular

MIR papers and use PDF for the documents. More details at the conference

All submissions will be peer-reviewed to ensure quality. The review process is

single-blinded. Demonstrators will be provided with space and access to a local

network (we will seek for Internet access but at the moment cannot guarantee).

The participants will be required to provide their own computing equipment and

any additional network, display, haptic, sensor, etc., hardware needed for the

demonstration.
