November 25th - 28th. MUM is a distinguished and inter-disciplinary 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 broad field from diverse perspectives: interaction techniques, user research, system development, software solutions, devices and hardware, etc. This year's conference continues the tradition of innovation and excellence established by previous MUM conferences.
In addition to the peer-reviewed accepted papers, the conference program will include keynote presentations, posters, demos, videos and a doctoral school. Accepted full and short papers, as well as poster, demo, video and doctoral school submissions will be
included in the conference proceedings and published in ACM digital library. MUM is organised in-cooperation with ACM SIGCHI.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

to the field of mobile and ubiquitous multimedia, either in full paper format (max. 10 pages excluding references) or short paper format (max. 4 pages excluding references). Successful full paper submissions typically represent a significant empirical, theoretical
or methodological advances in the field. Short papers offer more focused contributions; they are not work in progress reports but offer completed, rigorously researched/developed work with a solid contribution to the field. Short papers are likely to have
a smaller scope of contribution than full papers. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
