*Aims and Scope*
~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=
The First ACM International Conference on Multimedia Retrieval (ICMR),
puts together the long-lasting experience of former ACM CIVR and ACM
MIR. It is the ideal forum to present and encounter the most recent
developments and applications in the area of multimedia content
retrieval. Originally set up to illuminate the state-of-the-art in
image and video retrieval, ICMR aims at becoming the world reference
event in this exciting field of research, where researchers and
practitioners can exchange knowledge and ideas.

ICMR 2011 is accepting proposals for technical demonstrators that will
be showcased during the conference. The session will include
demonstrations of latest innovations by research and engineering
groups in industry, academia and government. ICMR 2011 is seeking
original high quality submissions addressing innovative research in
the broad field of multimedia retrieval. Demonstrations can be related
to any of the topics defined by ICMR as shown in the call for
papers. The technical demonstration showcase will run concurrently
with regular ICMR sessions in the poster area.
