[OVERVIEW] Smartphones (or smart mobile devices) have now truly become a ubiquitous computing device, a computer that the late Mark Weiser envisioned in his ubiquitous computing manifesto. Many applications that could only have been dreamed of, have now become a reality due to the improving computing, sensing, display and networking capabilities of smartphones. With applications ranging from productivity, entertainment, enterprise, social networking, communications and mixed reality, the smartphone is the ※swiss army knife§ of it all. However, there are still many untapped elements and unlimited possibilities that smartphones can provide next-generation interactive systems with more intuitive and intelligent functions and applications that have not been explored much in detail, especially through the use of computing, sensing and mobile capabilities of the smartphones. Making uses of cyber and physical data accessible by smartphones, new cyber-physical interactive technologies and systems can be designed and integrated to create novel functionalities, methods and intelligences to interact with humans for better social experiences, and more intelligent services and creative applications, such as recommender systems, advertising platforms, gaming applications that are interactive to the user smartphones on the spot in a physical environment and situation. This special issue of ACM Transactions on Multimedia Computing, Communications and Applications provides an opportunity to attract and bring together mobile computing, cyber-physical systems, ubiquitous computing, social computing, wireless networking and multimedia communications researchers along with user interface designers and practitioners with diverse backgrounds to contribute papers on theoretical, practical, and methodological issues on next-generation interactive technologies, systems and applications using smartphones.

[TOPICS] Topics may include (but are not limited to): - Cyber-physical interactions with smartphones - Social computing with smartphones for interactive media - Cloud computing on smartphones for multimedia - Cyber-physical interactive media systems using smartphones - Augmented-reality interactive media on smartphones - Ubiquitous media networking with smartphones and environments - Cyber-physical sensing with media applications in smartphones - Mining cyber-physical world for interactive media using smartphones - Integrating social context and social media through smartphones - Case studies of novel interactive media applications and services using smartphones

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[SUBMISSION DETAILS] Manuscripts should be submitted through ManuscriptCentral (at http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/tomm) by selecting the Manuscript Type "Smartphone-based Interactive Technologies, Systems and Applications". Submissions should contain original material that has not been previously published and is not currently under review by another journal. Published conference papers must be technically extended with the requirements specified in TOMM. For details about the formats, re-submission and other requirements, please refer to the authors guide at the journal website at http://tomm.acm.org/guide.html. After you submit your paper, the system will assign a manuscript number to your submission, please email this number to guesteditors2015@kom.tu-darmstadt.de together with the title of your paper.
