Euler diagrams provide a basis for many diagrammatic
systems such as higraphs and statecharts. Their
intuitive appeal makes them widely used for
information visualisation (for example, to express
logical conditions, database queries, file system
visualisation, statistical comparison of data).
Moreover, recent research in automatically generating,
displaying and reasoning with Euler diagrams has further
widened the range of application areas.

This two day workshop aims to bring together researchers
and users of Euler diagrams to examine the current state
of the art in this topic, explore application areas for
Euler diagrams, and discuss future research directions.

Original submissions, in the form of 2-page abstracts,
can be of the following types:
- Surveys of previous research in Euler diagrams
- Outlines of current research projects
- Position statements
- Descriptions of new research
- Suggestions for future research directions
- Open research questions
- Software demonstrations

The areas covered include (but are not limited to):
- Applications for Euler diagrams
- Extensions of Euler diagrams
- The semantics of Euler-based diagrams
- Generating Euler diagrams (the drawability of Euler diagrams)
- Euler diagram drawing (aesthetic layout of Euler diagrams)
- Tools for working with Euler diagrams
- Euler-based diagrammatic reasoning systems
- Usability of Euler Diagrams

Full papers, of up to 12 pages, are required shortly
after the workshop and will undergo editorial review before
final papers are collected to form the workshop proceedings.
