The 2011 International Workshop on Pervasive Computing and Multimedia Systems (PCMS 2011) 

http://www.cis.uab.edu/kddm/pcms11/index.htm 

Held in conjunction with the 5th IEEE/FTRA International Conference on 
Multimedia and Ubiquitous Engineering (MUE 2011) 
http://www.ftrai.org/mue2011 

We apologize if you received multiple copies of this Call for Papers 

Call For Paper: 

With the pervasive multimedia data (image, video, structured text, etc.) and the recent advances in networks and 

information technology, multimedia pervasive computing is having an unprecedented impact on every aspect of our life, 

from the personal use of multimedia mobile devices, such as iPod and PDA, to a wide spectrum of domains such as 

business and healthcare. The new multimedia standards (e.g., MPEG-21) facilitate the seamless integration of multiple 

modalities into interoperable multimedia frameworks, transforming the way people work and interact with multimedia 

data. These key technologies and multimedia solutions interact and collaborate with each other in an ever effective 

way, bringing along the multimedia revolution. Traditional multimedia research, which largely lies in signal processing 

and data communication, is now facing challenges posed by the new research trends such as multimedia semantic 

computing, multi-modal interaction and cross-mining, cooperative processing, new multimedia standards, Quality of 

Service (QoS), multimedia security, and social issues, which are just a few examples of the major research areas.  The 

aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers in multimedia semantic computing to discuss the state of the art 

of the research on semantic-based multimedia systems, present theoretical frameworks and practical implementations, and 

identify challenges and open issues in multimedia semantic modeling and integration. Multimedia semantic computing can 

be defined as "Computing with (machine processable) Descriptions of Content and Intentions" of multimedia data and has 

been gaining attentions in various applications including pervasive multimedia computing systems, multimedia delivery 

over the network, personalized multimedia information retrieval systems which adapt to the user's needs, integration of 

semantic content and schema from distributed multimedia sources so that the user sees a unified view of heterogeneous 

data, clustering and classification of semantically-tied information in different multimedia modalities, security 

issues in multimedia/hypertext systems, etc. We invite researchers from various disciplines to submit original research 

contributions to this workshop.  

 Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following: 
     * semantic content analysis 
     * semantic integration 
     * multimedia retrieval (image, video, audio, etc.) 
     * multimodal data analysis and interaction      
     * semantic media annotation

     * human-centered multimedia computing 
     * image/video/audio databases 
     * multimedia data mining 
     * multimedia data storage 
     * social network analysis from multimedia 
     * multimedia data modeling 
     * distributed multimedia systems 
     * multimedia data visualization 
     * semantic media adaptation and personalization

     * semantic based Internet data streaming and delivery

     * Multimedia streaming and networking 
     * multimedia assurance and security 
     * semantic enabled multimedia applications  
     * novel applications 
 
Instructions for authors: 
Papers reporting original and unpublished research results on the above and related topics are solicited. Authors 

should submit a 6-page technical paper manuscript (in English) in double-column IEEE format including authors' names 

and affiliations, and a short abstract, following the document templates available on the MUE2011 paper submission web 

site http://www.editorialsystem.net/pcms2011. Manuscripts should be submitted online to 

http://www.editorialsystem.net/pcms2011 on or before the deadline date of January 31st, 2011. All papers should be in 

Adobe portable document format (PDF). Submissions should include the name and the email address of the corresponding 

author. 

All submitted papers will be refereed for quality, originality and relevance by the Program Committee. The 

acceptance/rejection of the papers will be based on the review results. Accepted papers will be published in the 

workshop proceedings together with the proceedings of IEEE/FTRA International Conference on Multimedia and Ubiquitous 

Engineering (MUE 2011) and will be included in IEEE Explorer. 

Based on the quality of the manuscripts, selected papers will be invited to submit to a special issue of International 

Journal of Multimedia Data Engineering and Management (IJMDEM).
