Summary
-------
The objective of this Special Issue is to collect and report on recent high quality research that addresses the problem of mass digital media content generation and sharing. As social media keep extending over the Web as we know it, new innovative dynamics are formed in the sense of media content acquiring and sharing trends. Research in this area is important to combine the fields of semantics and knowledge engineering within social media platforms, mainly because of the overwhelming amount of disseminated information and different contextualization types. High quality contributions addressing related theoretical and practical aspects are expected.

------ 
Topics 
------ 
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following semantic media adaptation & personalization aspects in social media:

# Content creation, annotation and modelling for semantic social web
# Semantics-driven indexing and retrieval of multimedia contents
# Semantics-based recommender systems: theory and applications
# Semantic context modelling and extraction
# Social and semantic media collaboration platforms (e.g. semantic wikis)
# Social multimedia tagging and multimedia content communities
# Content customization and adaptation
# Context-aware multimedia applications
# Social network aggregation
# User modelling and dynamic profiling
# Adaptive and personalized multimedia summaries
# Intelligent personalized interfaces
# Hybrid socio-semantic approaches to profiling, recommendation engines or adaptation systems
