CALL FOR PAPERS 
============================================================================ 

SITIS 2012 - The 8th International Conference on 
SIGNAL IMAGE TECHNOLOGY & INTERNET BASED SYSTEMS 

In cooperation with IEEE Technical Committee on 
Multimedia Computing (pending) 

November 25-29, 2012, SORRENTO - Naples, Italy 

http://www.sitis-conf.org/ 

============================================================================ 

The SITIS conference is dedicated to research on the technologies used to 
represent, share and process information in various forms, ranging from 
signal, image, and multimedia data to traditional structured data and semi 
structured data found in the web. 
SITIS 2012 aims to provide a forum for high quality presentations on 
research activities centered on two main tracks: 

- The focus of the track on "Internet Based Systems and Computing" (IBCS) is 
on emerging and novel concepts, architectures and methodologies for 
information management. Novel architectures are being proposed to allow 
resource sharing and distributed processing of data with increasing 
complexity. Cloud computing, peer to peer computing, mobile information 
systems, semantic based applications, and decision support systems are a few 
examples of these applications and systems. 

- The track "Signal & Image Technologies" (SIT) focuses on recent 
developments in digital signal processing and pays particular attention to 
evolutions in audiovisual signal processing, analysis, coding and 
authentication, and retrieval techniques. 

More details about each track can be found in the attached files.
