SUBMISSIONS OPEN - PAPERS DUE ON MAY 24TH

The SMAP initiative was founded during the summer of 2006 in an effort 
to discuss the state of the art, recent advances and future perspectives 
for semantic media adaptation and personalization. After five successful 
workshops --in Athens, London, Prague, San Sebastian and Limassol--, the 
SMAP workshop series has consolidated as a reference event in order to 
discuss about the newest advances in the field. The 6th SMAP workshop 
will be held in Vigo, Spain.

SMAP series covers different issues of semantic multimedia technologies 
and their use in content creation, media adaptation and user profiling. 
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
. Semantic content creation, annotation and modelling.
. Semantics-driven indexing and retrieval of multimedia contents.
. User modelling and dynamic profiling.
. Ontologies and reasoning.
. Semantics-based recommender systems: theory and applications.
. Semantic Web adaptation technologies.
. Content customization and adaptation.
. Semantic context modelling and extraction.
. Context-aware multimedia applications.
. Personalized information services in entertainment, learning, 
e-commerce, e-health, tourism, etc.
. Adaptive and personalized multimedia summaries
. Multilingual content navigation.
. Social multimedia tagging and multimedia content communities.
. Intelligent personalized interfaces.
. Multimedia standards.

The 1-track, 2-day workshop aims to provide a platform for exchanging 
fresh ideas and expertise, and for obtaining feedback on ongoing research.

The proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society's 
Conference Publishing Services (CPS). Papers must be formatted according 
to the CPS formatting guidelines, with a limit of 6 IEEE 2-column style 
pages, including all figures, tables, and references. A minimum paper 
length of 4 IEEE 2-column style pages is also imposed. Papers must be 
submitted electronically through the EasyChair SMAP 2011 site 
(https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=smap2011).

Following the strong presence of students in previous editions, SMAP 
2011 will offer reduced registration fees for students. Also, as with 
previous SMAPs, plans are in place to have selected papers appear either 
in an edited volume or in a special journal issue.
