The ACM SIGMM International Conference on Multimedia Information Retrieval
is the leading forum for information retrieval researchers and practitioners
in any area of multimedia technology to explore cutting-edge ideas and
results, and to exchange techniques, tools, and experiences. During the
conference there will be a technical demonstration session collocated with
the poster sessions.

This demo session is meant to allow researchers and practitioners that have
implemented software systems and libraries to describe the design,
development
and functionality of their work in an interactive setting. The committee
encourages submission of emerging technology and early prototypes but will
also consider mature systems with experimental features. Submissions are
particularly encouraged in the areas of biomedical multimedia retrieval,
3D multimedia and immersive technologies, wireless multimedia applications,
multimedia-based security applications, multimedia databases, content
analysis,
content-based retrieval, multimedia search, media processing, entertainment,
multimedia social networking, multimedia advertising and innovative
applications.
Each submission should consist of a 4-page paper (which will be included in
the proceedings if accepted) formatted in the ACM style, and a URL link or a
presentation or video or an interactive system. Please email your demo
papers
directly to Industrial and Demo Programs Chairs (Drs. Jinbo Bi and Xin Chen)
for consideration. The paper should be prepared in the same style as the
regular
MIR papers and use PDF for the documents. More details at the conference
Website: http://riemann.ist.psu.edu/mir2010/

All submissions will be peer-reviewed to ensure quality. The review
process is
single-blinded. Demonstrators will be provided with space and access to
a local
network (we will seek for Internet access but at the moment cannot
guarantee).
The participants will be required to provide their own computing
equipment and
any additional network, display, haptic, sensor, etc., hardware needed
for the
demonstration.
