Introducing the New Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Multimedia

Abstract

As my three-year term as the founding editor of the Journal of Multimedia (JMM, ISSN 1796-2048) ends in August

2008, it gives me great pleasure to introduce Dr. Jiebo Luo as the next Editor-in-Chief of JMM.

Dr. Luo is internationally known and highly regarded for his work in the field of multimedia. He is a Senior Principal

Scientist with the Kodak Research Laboratories in Rochester, NY. He has extensive publications and editorial

experience in the field of multimedia. He serves on the editorial boards of the IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis

SPIE Journal of Electronic Imaging (JEI). He has served on the organizing committees of numerous international

conferences in this field. He has been serving as the chair of the 2008 ACM International Conference on Content-based

Image and Video Retrieval (CIVR), an area chair of the 2008 IEEE International Conference on Computer Vision and

Pattern Recognition (CVPR), a program co-chair of the 2007 SPIE International Symposium on Visual Communication

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all JMM Editors, authors, readers, and reviewers for their great help and
