The 10th International Conference on Ubi-media Computing and Workshops

(Ubi-Media 2017)

Website: http://www.umedia2017.net

Pattaya, Thailand, August 1st-4th, 2017

Organized by Kasetsart University, Sriracha Campus, Thailand

Events in the recently cyber-world can be modeled as a spatiotemporal continuity populated by computing devices, communication channels, and multimodal interactions. Contemporary ubiquitous devices unleash the boundary of one-to-one human-computer interaction. E.g., it has become a de facto style of facilitating social events that participants use several distributed devices through multimodal interaction. How people access multimodal media in different context is an interesting yet challenging problem. Ubi-media Computing, as it is bravely defined, brings together technologies for location/context adaptation, inter-device interaction/reaction, and media/data communication.

In line with the blooming technologies realizing the above concepts, this international conference looks at the state-of-the-art and original research issues to be published in the proceedings. New contributions include three perspectives: devices that realize ubiquitous computing, multimodal interactions between human and these ubiquitous devices, and the need of adaptive multimedia.

All accepted and presented papers will appear in the Ubi-Media 2017 conference proceedings and be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore. Some high-quality paper will recommended for publication in special issues of international journals of Internet Protocol Technology (indexed by EI Compendex, Scopus, ACM Digital Library, Emerging sources Citation Index, etc...).
