BACKGROUND

The use of computers in music is well established. CMMR 2004 provides
an opportunity to meet and interact with peers concerned with the
cross-influence of the technological and creative in computer music.

The field of computer music is interdisciplinary by nature and closely
related to a number of computer science and engineering areas such as
information retrieval, programming, human computer interaction,
digital libraries, hypermedia, artificial intelligence, acoustics,
signal processing, etc.

CMMR 2004 invites researchers, educators, composers, performers, and
others with an interest in important aspects of computer music
(including modeling, retrieval, analysis, and synthesis) to come join
us for a unique event.

TOPICS

Original contributions on the following (and other relevant) topics
are encouraged:
  
  infrastructures for music 
      - music digital libraries modeling 
      - representation and language modeling 
      - distributed system infrastructures 
  indexing and retrieval of music 
      - metadata 
      - standards 
      - protocols 
      - query languages 
      - advanced information retrieval 
  structuring of music data 
      - hypermedia 
      - structural computing 
  collaboration on music 
      - computer supported cooperative work 
  analysis, recognition, comparison, classification, and modeling of music 
      - pattern recognition 
      - signal processing 
      - algoritmics 
      - parsing 
  mining and visualizing music 
      - data mining 
      - visualization 
  synthesis (composition) of music 
      - models for synthesis 
      - automated composition 
  user interfaces for music 
      - human computer interaction 

FORMAT

The symposium will be structured in a traditional manner with paper
presentations. However, there will also be scheduled time for
presentation of computer musical compositions.

SUBMISSIONS

Submissions may have any of the following forms: 
  
Full paper (7 - 10 pages) 
Short paper (3 - 5 pages) 
Computer musical compositions 

All papers will be reviewed by the program committee and accepted
papers will be published after the symposium as post-event proceedings
in the Springer Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS)
Series.
