=====================================================================

The 13th ACM Multimedia Systems Conference (and associated workshops: MMVE 2022, NOSSDAV 2022, GameSys 2022) will be held from 14th to 17th June 2022 in Athlone, Ireland. MMSys2022 will provide a warm welcome to leading experts from academia and industry to present and share their latest research findings in multimedia systems. While research about specific aspects of multimedia systems are regularly published in the various proceedings and transactions of the networking, operating systems, real-time systems, databases, mobile computing, distributed systems, computer vision, and middleware communities, MMSys aims to cut across these domains in the context of multimedia data types. This provides a unique opportunity to investigate the intersections and the interplay of the various approaches and solutions developed across these domains.

MMSys is a venue for researchers who explore:
* Complete multimedia systems that provide a new kind of multimedia experience or system whose overall performance improves the state-of-the-art through new research results in more than one component
* Enhancements to one or more system components and/or aspects that provide improvements over the state-of-the-art traditional and next-generation media services
* Evaluation studies, models and/or methodologies that provides added value to the multimedia systems community

This touches aspects of many traditional and emerging topics including but not limited to:
- Content preparation and (adaptive) delivery systems
- high dynamic range (HDR)
- Games, virtual/augmented/mixed/extended reality
- 3D video
- Immersive media systems
- Plenoptics
- 360-degree video
- Network virtualisation
- AI Driven (or powered) Multimedia Systems
- Multimedia and the Internet of Things (IoT)
- GPGPUs
- Mobile multimedia and 5G/6G
- Wearable multimedia
- Peer-to-Peer (P2P) or hybrid systems
- Cloud-based multimedia
- Digital twins
- Cyber-physical systems
- Multi-sensory experiences
- Smart cities
- Autonomous multimedia systems
- Quality of experience (QoE)
- Machine & Deep learning and statistical modeling for media processing and distribution
- Volumetric media: from capture to consumption.

Submission Instructions
-----------------------------------------
Online submission: https://mmsys2022research.hotcrp.com/

Papers must be up to 12 pages long (in PDF format) prepared in the ACM style and written in English. MMSys papers enable authors to present entire multimedia systems or research work that builds on considerable amounts of earlier work in a self-contained manner. MMSys papers are published in the ACM Digital Library. The papers are double-blind reviewed. All submissions will be peer-reviewed by at least three TPC members. All papers will be evaluated for their scientific quality. Authors will have a chance to submit their rebuttals before online discussions among the TPC members. ACM SIGMM has a tradition of publishing open datasets (MMSys) and open-source projects (ACM Multimedia). MMSys 2022 will continue to support scientific reproducibility, by implementing the ACM reproducibility badge system. All accepted papers will be contacted by the Reproducibility Chairs, inviting the authors to make their dataset and code available, and thus, obtaining an ACM badge (visible at the ACM DL). The additional material will be published as Appendixes, with no effect on the final page count for papers.
