5th KES International Conference on Intelligent Interactive Multimedia Systems
and Services
KES-IIMSS-2012
23 - 25 May 2012, Gifu, Japan

http://iimss-12.kesinternational.org

We are pleased to invite participation in IIMSS-2012, an international
scientific conference for research in the field of intelligent interactive
multimedia systems and services. The aim of the conference is to provide an
internationally respected forum for scientific research in the technologies and
applications of intelligent and interactive multimedia systems and services.

KES-IIMSS-2012 will be colocated with the 4th KES International Conference on
Intelligent Decision Technologies (KES-IDT-2012) in Gifu, offering the potential
for interaction between the two events.

Gifu, located in the centre of Japan, is a city ideal for international
conventions and sightseeing. Gifu City is known for its traditions and rich
history, including its 1300-year-old tradition of cormorant fishing on the
Nagara River and Gifu Castle.

Papers are invited from prospective authors with interests in the areas of:
mobile technologies and intelligent services, adaptive hypermedia systems,
