different modalities, is the common case in today's systems. With the
continuous development in network technologies, acquisition systems, and
computational power, creating and sharing multimedia data is becoming easier
for all people around the world. On Facebook, for example, around 500000
comments are posted and around 135000 images are uploaded every second.
Storing, searching in, analyzing, and utilizing Multimedia data is highly
challenging. That is why the International Conference on Multimedia Computing,
Networking and Applications (MCNA) give the opportunity for researcher and
practitioners to present their efforts in addressing the challenges of dealing
with Multimedia data. The main topics include but are not limited to:</span></p>
