ACM Transactions on Multimedia Computing, Communications and
Applications (TOMCCAP)
Special Issue on 20th Anniversary of ACM SIGMM Multimedia
The premier ACM SIGMM International Conference on Multimedia (known as
ACM Multimedia) is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year. It all
started in Anaheim, California, August 1-6, 1993, when the general
chair, J.J. Garcia-Luna-Aceves, gathered multimedia-interested
researchers together to discuss and present research on systems and
networks that would process digital audio and digital video. From this
moment, over the next 20 years, research in digital multimedia has gone
viral and became an integral part of our IT life. At this point, it is
hard to imagine not having Flickr, YouTube, Facebook, Skype, Sony
Playstation, Microsoft Media Player, Netflix, InstaGram, Akamai Content
Distribution Services, and other multimedia products as part of our lives.
The beginnings of all these products can be traced to many scientific
and engineering inventions presented at scientific and industrial events
over the last 20 years. From the beginning, the ACM Multimedia
Conference has been one of the most important scientific venues to
disseminate knowledge in this space, and it played a crucial role in
bringing out many solutions that we now see in multimedia products.
This special issue of ACM TOMCCAP requests submission of manuscripts
that will take a historical view and survey what happened to various
multimedia technologies over the last 20 years, or bridges historical
and futuristic views on how the past inventions influence the current
and future multimedia inventions.
TOPICS may include the following or similar topics:
Historical view of
‧ multimedia synchronization
‧ multimedia content analysis and retrieval
‧ data mining and knowledge discovery for multimedia
‧ multimedia streaming
‧ multimedia schedulers
‧ human-computer interactions for multimedia.

‧ interactive technologies
‧ multimedia interfaces
‧ multimedia content distribution
‧ multimedia content understanding and search capabilities.
