Technical Demos will include leading edge work in every area of multimedia technology and its application. 

Video Demonstrations allow researchers and artists to demonstrate their tool, system or application without having to bring the equipment for a �??live�?? demo.

The Interactive Art Program will include long and short papers describing interactive multimedia art works, tools, applications, and technical approaches for creative uses of multimedia content and technology. It will also include an art exhibition.

Workshops on topics of current interest to members of the multimedia research community will follow the technical program.

Doctoral Symposium is an opportunity for students involved in the preparation of a PhD to interactively discuss their research issues and ideas with senior researchers, and receive constructive feedback from members of the research community.

The Open-source Software Competition is a recent addition to the ACM Multimedia program and 2008 will be our fourth year of running the competition.
