ISM 2016 Industry Program Call for Papers
The goals of the ISM 2016 Industry Program are to foster information exchanges between practitioners and academic researchers, to promote novel solutions to today's challenges in the area of multimedia computing and applications, to provide practitioners in the field an early opportunity to evaluate leading-edge research, and to identify new issues and directions for future research and development efforts. Similar to regular papers, the papers in the industry session will undergo a review process and will appear in the conference proceedings. However, the selection criteria for industry papers are slightly different. In particular, papers should describe technologies, methodologies, applications, prototypes or experiences of clear industry relevance. A main goal of this session is to present research that exposes the community to challenges and issues important to industry. Therefore, papers in this session will be mainly evaluated based on their novelty and applicability of their insights from industrial solutions, instead of the originality of their algorithmic content.
