Call For Papers - CFP

In conjunction with

ACM Multimedia 2011, Scottsdale, Arizona, US, Nov 28 ? Dec 1

http://www.acmmm11.org

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

[Representing Intelligent Environments]

* Visualization and animation of sensing activities, decisions, and implicit interactions of intelligent systems, which allows users to understand and predict the behavior of the system.

* Creating awareness for implicit interaction concepts using multimedia artifacts

* Using avatars, storytelling, or gaming to introduce the functional capabilities and adaptive behaviour of intelligent environments to novice users

[Concepts for Meta User Interfaces]

* Multimodal, multimedia interfaces to control and modify implicit interactions and environments’ responsive activities

* User interfaces to shut down the perception features or responsive behaviors of intelligent environments

* Game-based interfaces to observe, control and modify system behavior

* Haptic, multi touch, or tangible ubiquitous meta user interfaces

* Supportive user interfaces that create a system face for intelligent environments

* Natural meta interaction concepts allowing users an easy access to multimedia environments (search, exploration, manipulation and control of media and devices), touch and gesture based interfaces, 3D displays and audio immersive systems for augmented-reality.

* Metaphors and coordination algorithms for distributed conflict management, mechanisms that allow users an explicit interaction with adaptive environments.

[Implementation, and Evaluation Aspects]

*Methods to evaluate the added-value of multimedia assisted meta user interfaces

* User studies related to mental models for human-environment-interaction and meta user interfaces

* Novel approaches to effectively manage the complexity of development, Real-time, de-centralized media-processing architectures, middleware architectures for sensor and multimedia integration.

* Activity analysis and domain observations related to phenomena such as loss of control and over-automation

* Smart Multimedia sensors with the ability to capture, store, and process audio and video signals for situation recognition and implicit interaction purposes. This specially includes human activity recognition and monitoring as well as socially-aware multimedia

Paper selection process

Submitted papers must not have been previously published and must not be currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. Reviewing will be double blind. Only electronic submissions will be accepted. Papers will be reviewed with an emphasis on potential to contribute to the state-of-the-art in the field. Each paper will receive at least two reviews. Selection criteria include accuracy and originality of ideas, clarity and significance of results, and presentation quality. All papers accepted will appear in the workshops proceedings and will be included in the ACM Digital Library.

All accepted papers that are registered and presented in the workshop are eligible to submit an extended version to the special issue (more detailes will be announced later).
