Research Society - POSRS, Eastern Cluster ICT Poland, Mazovia Cluster ICT.

MMAP 2016 is organized by Software Engineering Department, Faculty of 
Automation, Computers and Electronics, University of Craiova, Romania 
"Multimedia Applications Development" Research Centre. It is a major 
forum for researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and 
government to present, discuss, and exchange ideas that address 
real-world problems with real-world solutions.
The MMAP 2016 Symposium welcomes submissions of original papers 
concerning all aspects of multimedia domain ranging from concepts 
developments to advanced technologies and innovative and theoretical  
applications. MMAP invites original previously unpublished contributions 
that are not submitted concurrently to a journal or another conference.
Papers acceptance and publication will be judged based on their
