SIGMM Conferences and Journals Ranked High by Chinese Computing Federation (CCF)

The Chinese Computing Federation (CCF) Ranking List provides a ranking of peer-reviewed conferences and journals in the broad area of computer science. This list is typically consulted by most academic institutions in China as a quality metric for PhD promotions and tenure track jobs.

The CCF ranking released in 2013 for "Multimedia and Graphics" is at the following link (one may use Google Translate to view the web page in English or other desired language):
