The 2011 International Workshop on Web and Multimedia Services (WMS-11) will be held December 12-15, 2011 in Jeju, Korea, in conjunction with CSA 2011. The WMS-11 is an official workshop of Korean Information Technology Convergence Society (KITCS) which is under Future Technology Research Association(FTRA).

With the popularity of multimedia data on the web, efficiently accessing and managing the explosively growing multimedia content from large-scale web archives and multimedia database has become essential. During the last decades, extensive research efforts have been dedicated to automatic multimedia analysis and processing, such as acquisition, generation, storage, and retrieval of large-scale multimedia information. However, despite these techniques already provide promising results, there are still several key difficulties such as semantic gap and user gap in multimedia analysis/processing and annotation/tagging, respectively.
This workshop is calling for papers that investigate the emerging research challenges in the field of multimedia and web which could be helped by reducing the semantic and user gap between low-level content descriptions of multimedia
and the semantics in high-level human interpretations of audiovisual media.

Distinguished papers accepted and presented in WMS-11, after further revisions, will be published in the special issues of the following international journals:
