  • General Chairs' Welcome
    General Chairs’ Welcome ACM Multimedia 2017 We warmheartedly welcome you to the 25th ACM Multimedia conference, which is hosted in the heart of Silicon Valley at the wonderful Computer History Museum in Mountain View, CA, USA. As you will notice, the second floor of the Computer History Museum is still nearly empty these days. 25 years later, the second floor will be filled with artifacts people have created today. Hopefully some of these artifacts are created by attendees of this conference. Let us work together and make history. We are celebrating our 25th anniversary with an extensive program consisting of technical sessions covering all aspects of the multimedia field in both form of oral and poster presentations, tutorials, panels, exhibits, demonstrations and workshops, bringing into focus the principal subjects of investigation, competitions of research teams on challenging problems, and an interactive art program stimulating artists and computer scientists to meet and discover together the frontiers of artistic communication. For our 25th ACM Multimedia conference, ACM Multimedia 2017, we unified for the first time the long and short papers into a single submission track and review process. In order to support the traditional short and long papers, the unified track has had a flexible range of paper lengths (6-8 pages plus references), which is not much longer than the previous short paper length (5 pages), while also supporting the traditional long papers with 8 pages plus references. This change was decided at the SIGMM Business Meeting at ACM Multimedia 2016 in Amsterdam. It aims at making the review process more consistent than the former short and long paper track.

  • Comparative Study on Football Professionalism Development Histories in China and Japan
    International Journal of Sports and Physical Education (IJSPE) Volume 3, Issue 3, 2017, PP 35-46 ISSN 2454-6380 http://dx.doi.org/10.20431/2454-6380.0303005 www.arcjournals.org Comparative Study on Football Professionalism Development Histories in China and Japan Lin Xiaofei, Yin Guochang Institute of Physical Education, Jiangxi Normal University, Nanchang 330022, Jiangxi, China Abstract: Football Professionalism is an indispensable means to boost the football development in a country. Football professionalism reform implemented by China in the 1990s had a profound impact on the growth of Chinese football. As China’s close neighbor separated by a strip of water, Japan also implemented football professionalism reform in the 1990s. However, over the past two decades of implementing football professionalism in both two countries, a tremendous gap has arisen between the two countries’ football competitive levels. Up to today, the competitive level of Japanese football has ascended to the top in Asia, while China is still hanging around at the bottom. As for the same football professionalism reform, how could the disparity be so huge. In essence, there must be inherent causes. Therefore, in this paper, a wide range of research methods such as literature review methods, data comparison and analysis methods are employed to analyze, compare and study the football professionalism development histories both in China and Japan. Various problems existing in the development process of Chinese football professionalism are identified, hoping to provide some guidance and theoretical reference for the smooth development of Chinese football professionalism in future. Keywords: Football Professionalism Reform; Development History; Football System 1.

  • Xi Jinping's Inner Circle (Part 2: Friends from Xi's Formative Years)
    Xi Jinping’s Inner Circle (Part 2: Friends from Xi’s Formative Years) Cheng Li The dominance of Jiang Zemin’s political allies in the current Politburo Standing Committee has enabled Xi Jinping, who is a protégé of Jiang, to pursue an ambitious reform agenda during his first term. The effectiveness of Xi’s policies and the political legacy of his leadership, however, will depend significantly on the political positioning of Xi’s own protégés, both now and during his second term. The second article in this series examines Xi’s longtime friends—the political confidants Xi met during his formative years, and to whom he has remained close over the past several decades. For Xi, these friends are more trustworthy than political allies whose bonds with Xi were built primarily on shared factional association. Some of these confidants will likely play crucial roles in helping Xi handle the daunting challenges of the future (and may already be helping him now). An analysis of Xi’s most trusted associates will not only identify some of the rising stars in the next round of leadership turnover in China, but will also help characterize the political orientation and worldview of the influential figures in Xi’s most trusted inner circle. “Who are our enemies? Who are our friends?” In the early years of the Chinese Communist movement, Mao Zedong considered this “a question of first importance for the revolution.” 1 This question may be even more consequential today, for Xi Jinping, China’s new top leader, than at any other time in the past three decades.

  • <A>INTRODUCTION
    Montgomery, L. & E. Priest (2016), “Copyright and China’s Digital Cultural Industries.” In Michael Keane (Ed) Handbook of the Cultural and Creative Industries in China. Cheltenham: Edward Elgar. <a>INTRODUCTION Economic and cultural sector reforms and engagement with international markets initiated by Deng Xiaoping since 1990 led to the rapid development of the PRC’s copyright law. Since China joined the World Trade Organization in December 2001, affluent Chinese consumers have become an important target market for both Chinese and international firms trading in creative and cultural products. While enforcement remains problematic, Chinese creators and businesses are adept at navigating the intellectual property system – developing business strategies that engage with the possibilities of digital technologies and copyright licensing; using copyright to support eXpansion into new markets; and adapting distribution approaches to reflect lessons provided by first-movers in digital spaces. This chapter eXplores how and why copyright’s role is eXpanding and changing in China, focusing on recent developments in digital content markets. It considers the impact of uneven media sector reform processes on the emergence of ‘born digital’ copyright industries in China. There are signs that the commercial benefits of copyright compliance are beginning to outweigh the advantages of operating outside the intellectual property system for many Chinese stakeholders. We argue that these developments – in particular the emergence of widespread exclusive licensing practices – signal a watershed moment for China’s cultural and creative industries, highlighting the potential for digital technology to create new markets for legitimate content and services, as well as the importance of global dynamics in the development of digital era copyright industries.
