COVID-19 Information
The IEEE BigMM 2022 conference will be held in Naples as planned, with a 
hybrid mode - You may join the conference in person or online. For

AIMS AND SCOPE
Multimedia, as one of the most important and valuable sources for 
insights and information, is increasingly being considered as big data.” 
Multimedia big data includes but is not limited to text, image, 
graphics, audio, video, social, and sensor data that is highly valuable 
in decision making. It covers from everyone’s experiences to everything 
happening in the world. As such, multimedia big data is spurring on a 
tremendous amount of research and development of related technologies 
and applications.

The focus of the conference series has been established with the belief 
that it is important to have a full, top-tier conference that focuses 
specifically on the combination of multimedia and big data research. 
While research about specific aspects of big data systems is regularly 
published in the various proceedings and transactions of the information 
retrieval, operating system, real-time system, and database communities, 
BigMM aims to cut across these domains in the context of multimedia data 
types. This provides a unique opportunity to view the intersections and 
interplay of the various approaches and solutions developed across these 
domains to deal with multimedia big data types. Furthermore, BigMM 
provides an avenue for communicating research that addresses both 
multimedia and big data holistically. The mission of the conference is 
to share research results and solutions and to identify new issues and 
directions for future research and development work.
The technical program of BigMM 2022 will consist of invited 
talks, paper presentations, and panel discussions. Submissions are 
solicited for full papers, short papers, and workshop papers.


CONFERENCE VENUE
The IEEE BigMM 2022 conference will take place at the Royal Continental 
Hotel in the wonderful city of Naples, Italy.

In the last few years, Naples has become one of the favorite 
destinations for all those Italian and foreign tourists who love 
spending their holidays in cities of artistic interest. Unlike cities in 
which art is stored in museums and daily life happens on the streets, 
Naples' distinctive mark is its folklore: people living and working 
among the artistic beauties of the city. Tourism has become a key factor 
in the city's economy.

The Royal Continental Hotel is located on Naples’ waterfront. It’s easy 
to lose yourself between the sea and the symbols of the city: opposite 
the hotel, you’ll see the legendary Castel dell’Ovo and the Borgo 
Marinari, just a few-minutes walk away is the Piazza del Plebiscito and 
a little further, the Maschio Angioino. The hotel is located in the 
centre of the large pedestrianized island of the promenade, while still 
being well-connected to the rest of the city.
