Call For Papers

With the rapid development of network socialization, multimedia social networks (MSNs) have increasingly emerged. These MSNs offer network tools, services, and applications for multimedia contents (e.g. electronic book, digital image, audio and video) that can be shared among users in the same group or between different groups within social networks. Many MSNs are popular nowadays, such as video sharing networks YouTube and audio sharing network SongTaste etc. However, easy digital content reproduction and the convenient distribution and sharing of such contents facilitated by open MSNs environments have enabled people to share and distribute valuable copyrighted digital contents within social networks. The copyright infringement behaviors, such as illicit copying, malicious distribution, unauthorized usage, free sharing of copyright-protected digital contents, will also become a much more common phenomenon. Some research frontiers on media contents security in social networks applications have been in progress, including enhanced security mechanisms, methods and algorithms, trust assessment and risk management in social network applications, as well as social factors and soft computing in social media distributions.
The special issue attempts to bring together researchers, contents industry engineers and administrators resorting to the state-of-the-art technologies and ideas to protect valuable media contents and services against attacks and IP piracy in the emerging social networks. All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed and selected on the basis of both their quality and their relevance to the theme of this special issue.
