The International Digital Media Industry and Academic Forum (DMIAF), technically sponsored by IEEE, is a forum that brings together researchers from academia and industry, and industry executives with diverse experience and activity in distinct, yet complementary areas, to discuss the development of emerging and next-generation Digital Media technologies, applications, and services. The program will include keynote addresses by industry executives, special sessions focused on industry-centered topics, presentations of novel research results, and industry-led panels.
