1998, Girona (E) 2000, and Blaubeuren (D) 2002, we are happy to
announce the 7th Eurographics Symposium on Parallel Graphics and Visualization.
The aim of this symposium is to share experiences and knowledge of
parallel and distributed computing and its application to all aspects
of computer graphics, virtual reality, scientific and engineering
visualization.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
Cluster based graphics and visualization
Efficient graphics and visualization for shared and distributed memory systems
Parallel and distributed systems for large and high resolution displays
Parallel and distributed systems for photo-realistic rendering
Parallel volume rendering
Real-time systems for 3D virtual reality
Data coherence in graphics algorithms
Large data set visualization
Large model realistic rendering
Large scale simulations and graphics rendering
Graphics and visualization in grid environments
Parallel simulations for interactive applications
Parallelism within GPU architectures
GPU clusters
The EGPGV Symposium will take place at the Swiss National Supercomputing Center, situated in Lugano, Switzerland, on the 20 and 21 of May, 2007.
