Scope and Motivation:

Social applications, multimedia, and games play a substantial role in
shaping Internet traffic and have emerged as dominant mode of social
interaction online. This recent trend has sparked significant research
interests, both at the network level and in terms of application and
service development. Moreover, with the advent of the metaverse,
research focus within these domains has expanded to encompass virtual
worlds, immersive experiences, and social interactions in virtual
environments. Given their increasing prevalence and interdisciplinary
nature, social applications, multimedia, and games have also garnered
research attention across diverse fields, including big data analytics,
cloud computing, artificial intelligence, data sensing, information
security, and privacy protection.


Main Topics of Interest: The Networking solutions for social
applications, multimedia, and games track seeks original contributions
in the following areas, as well as others that are not explicitly listed
but are closely related:

● Artificial Intelligence for social applications, multimedia, and games.

● Architectures, Platforms, and Protocols.

● Business models for social applications, multimedia, and games.
