ACM Multimedia 2017 - Call for Panels



Overview


To promote a healthy conversation on the ever growing multimedia research,
ACM MM 2017 panels are expected to focus on topics of current and
increasing interest. It is required that the topic for panel discussion is
a controversial topic, or a topic that has not yet received much attention,
but is rapidly gaining importance. Recently, significant changes in
multimedia research, development, and application landscape have taken
place in order to deal with a blossom of contemporary technologies and
applications, including emerging technologies, big data and artificial
intelligence, cloud computing, social networking, interactive and immersive
experiences, personal multimedia, massive user generated media data,
learning-based multimedia systems, and media rich mobile applications.

We are calling upon the leaders and thinkers (young and old) of multimedia
research to propose panel discussions at ACM MM 2016! We look forward to
receiving high quality proposals from the multimedia community. It is
expected that expert panelists will express their views on the topic of
panel and discuss/debate/share with other panelists and the audience their
views and experiences. Notice that the panels at ACM MM 2016 are not
intended as an avenue for panelists to present their own personal research
or a narrow scope research project. We welcome panel organizers from both
academia and industry. We especially welcome new and emerging perspectives
from multimedia related industrial corporations and researchers.



Call for Proposals



Proposals are solicited for panels that can be scheduled for 60 or 90
minutes in duration. The panel should schedule at least 30 minutes for
interaction with the audience. Submissions should be made to the Panel
Chairs and should include a cover sheet and an extended summary. The
complete proposal should be limited to 6 pages and should include:

   - Panel topic and justification for such panel, including an explanation
   why this panel should lead to an engaged discussion among the panelists and
   with the conference participants.
   - Complete contact information for the panel organizers.
   - (Potential) panelists and their expertise; it’s best to have panelists
   mostly-confirmed when you submit the proposal.
   - A brief biography for each organizer and panelist.



Important dates



   - Submission deadline: May 31st, 2017.
   - Notification of Acceptance: July 16th, 2017.
