FEDERATED COMPUTER SCIENCE AND INFORMATION SYSTEMS
CONFERENCE 
held in Krakow, Poland, September 8-11, 2013
CONFERENCE BACKGROUND AND GOALS
Multimedia information has become ubiquitous on
the web, creating new challenges for indexing, access, search and retrieval.
Recent advances in pervasive computers, networks, telecommunications, and
information technology, along with the proliferation of multimedia mobile
devices - such as laptops, iPods, personal digital assistants (PDA), and cellular
telephones - have stimulated the development of intelligent 
pervasive multimedia applications. These key
technologies are creating a  multimedia revolution that will have significant impact
across a wide spectrum of consumer, business, healthcare, educational
and governmental domains. Yet many challenges remain, especially when it comes
to efficiently indexing, mining, querying, searching, retrieving, displaying
and interacting with multimedia data. 
The Multimedia - Processing and Applications 2013
(MMAP 2013) Symposium addresses several themes related to theory and practice
within multimedia domain. The enormous interest in multimedia from many
activity areas (medicine, entertainment, education) led researchers and
industry to make a continuous effort to create new, innovative multimedia
algorithms and applications.
As a result the conference goal is to bring
together researchers, engineers, developers and practitioners in order to
communicate their newest and original contributions. The key objective of the
MMAP conference is to gather results from academia and industry partners
working in all subfields of multimedia: content design, development, authoring
and evaluation, systems/tools oriented research and development. We are also
interested in looking at service architectures, protocols, and standards for
multimedia communications - including middleware - along with the related
security issues, such as secure multimedia information sharing. Finally, we
encourage submissions describing work on novel applications that exploit the
unique set of advantages offered by multimedia computing techniques, including
home-networked entertainment and games. However, innovative contributions that
don't exactly fit into these areas will also be considered because they might
be of benefit to conference attendees.
CALL FOR PAPERS
MMAP 2013 is a major forum for researchers and
practitioners from academia, industry, and government to present, discuss, and
exchange ideas that address real-world problems with real-world solutions.
The MMAP 2013 Symposium welcomes submissions of
original papers concerning all aspects of multimedia domain ranging from
concepts and theoretical developments to advanced technologies and innovative
applications. MMAP 2013 invites original previously unpublished contributions
that are not submitted concurrently to a journal or another conference.
Papers acceptance and publication will be judged
based on their relevance to the symposium theme, clarity of presentation,
originality and accuracy of results and proposed solutions.

PAPER SUBMISSION, PUBLICATION AND INDEXATION
Authors should submit full papers (as Postscript,
PDF, MSWord, or ODF file).
The total length of a paper must not exceed 8
pages IEEE style (including tables, figures and references). IEEE style
templates are available here.
Papers will be refereed and accepted on the basis
of their scientific merit and relevance to the conference.
Submitted papers must be unpublished and not under
review in any other conference or journal (submissions that violate this
requirement will be regarded as self-plagiarism).
Organizers reserve right to move accepted papers
between FedCSIS events.
Only papers presented at the conference will be
included in the IEEE Xplore? database and submitted for indexation.
Proceedings of the FedCSIS 2012 conference were
indexed in the Thomson Reuters - Conference Proceedings Citation Index, where
they will also be submitted in 2013.
Furthermore, FedCSIS proceedings will be submitted
for indexation to: DBLP Computer Science Bibliography, Inspec, Scirus, and
other repositories.
Extended versions of selected papers presented
during the conference may be published as Special Issue(s) of journal(s)to be
announced later.
