UPDATES
- Due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation, we are currently looking into
different ways to hold MUM2020. We are currently exploring options to run a
hybrid conference allowing physical as well as virtual participation for
all of our tracks.
- Accepted papers will be published in the Proceedings of the ACM
International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Multimedia and will be
available in the ACM Digital Library.

MUM is an interdisciplinary forum for advances in research of mobile and
ubiquitous multimedia systems, applications, and services. At MUM,
academics and practitioners gather to discuss challenges and achievements
in this field from diverse perspectives, such as interaction techniques,
user research, system development, software solutions, and devices. This
year's conference continues the tradition and spirit established by
previous MUM conferences.

We welcome submissions of high-quality papers that offer original and
unpublished contributions relevant to the field of mobile and ubiquitous
multimedia, either in long paper format (up to 10 pages excluding
references) or short paper format (up to 4 pages excluding references).
Successful long paper submissions typically represent significant
empirical, theoretical or methodological advances in the field. Short
papers offer more focused contributions; they are not work in progress
reports but offer complete, rigorously developed work, with a solid
contribution to the field. Short papers have a smaller scope or more
focused contribution than long papers.

Paper topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

   - Architectures, systems, algorithms and other constructions tackling
   relevant technical challenges
   - Augmented, mixed, and virtual reality systems and applications
   - Case studies, field trials, or user experience evaluations of new
   applications and services
   - Conceptualizations and theorizations of the field
   - Context-aware and location-based mobile and ubiquitous services
   - Metrics and measures for evaluating and testing mobile and ubiquitous
   systems
   - Middleware and distributed computing support for mobile and ubiquitous
   multimedia
   - Novel applications for mobile and ubiquitous gaming, entertainment,
   networking, and advertising
   - Privacy and security related issues to multimedia systems
   - Social implications of mobile and ubiquitous multimedia systems
   - Tools and development environments for building mobile, wearable, and
   ubiquitous multimedia systems
   - User interfaces, interaction design, and interaction techniques for
   mobile and ubiquitous systems

Papers should be grounded in existing literature and knowledge, and should
be written for an interdisciplinary audience. Papers must be submitted via
EasyChair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mum20) at the
latest by *August
10th, 2020 AoE* and follow the ACM Proceedings Template
<https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template>. Use Interim
Template for Microsoft Word users and sigconf Template for Latex users.

Submissions should not have been previously published or be concurrently
under submission. Papers must be anonymized. Submitted papers will undergo
a rigorous double-blind review process managed by the Technical Program
Chairs. Accepted papers will be published in the Proceedings of the ACM
International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Multimedia and will be
available in the ACM Digital Library, where they will remain accessible to
thousands of researchers and practitioners worldwide.
