The 19th IEEE International Symposium on Multimedia (ISM2017) is an international forum for researchers to exchange information regarding advances in the state of the art and practice of multimedia computing, as well as to identify the emerging research topics and define the future of multimedia computing. The technical program of ISM2017 will consist of invited talks, paper presentations, and panel discussions. Submissions are solicited for full papers, short papers, industry papers, workshop papers, technical demos, and panels. ============================================================ *IMPORTANT DATES (Extended)* ============================================================ Aug 11, 2017 (PDT) Paper(full/short)/Demo Submission Sep 12, 2017 (PDT) Paper(full/short)/Demo/Panel Notification Oct 01, 2017 (PDT) Camera-ready/Registration ============================================================ *SUBMISSIONS* ============================================================ Authors are invited to submit Regular Papers (6-8 pages), Short Papers (4 pages), Demonstration Papers and Posters (2 pages), and Workshop Proposals as well as Industry Track Papers (4 pages) which will be included in the proceedings. A main goal of this program is to present research work that exposes the academic and research communities to challenges and issues important for the industry. The Conference Proceedings will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press. Distinguished quality papers presented at the conference will be selected for publication in internationally renowned journals.
