International Conference on Multimedia & Expo
July 30 - August 2, 2000 New York City
http://www.ieee-multimedia.poly.edu
International Conference on Multimedia & Expo 2000 is the first IEEE multimedia conference that will take place in joint collaboration with four IEEE societies. The same four IEEE societies that have recently launched the IEEE Transactions on Multimedia, namely the Circuits and Systems Society, the Computer Society, the Signal Processing Society and the Communications Society have again come together in making this one-of-a-kind conference a reality.
The goal is to unify all IEEE as well as non-IEEE multimedia related activities under the common umbrella of ICME 2000 -- the millennium multimedia meeting. It is expected that this will become a yearly event as the flagship Multimedia conference of the IEEE. New York City (the Big Apple) is uniquely suited for this first-time event in view of its large concentration of high tech Industries, first-rate academic institutions and numerous small multimedia companies. The intent is to blend the traditional IEEE conference framework into an Expo by providing the industry an opportunity to showcase products.
Authors should submit a four-page manuscript in double-column format including authors' names, affiliations and a short abstract. Only electronic submission (in postscript format) will be accepted. Electronic submission procedure will be made available at the conference web site:
Topics covered include but are not limited to the following: * Signal processing for media integration * Components and technologies for multimedia systems * Human-machine interface and interaction * Multimedia databases and file systems * Multimedia communication and networking * System integration * Applications * STDS standards and related issues
