--------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS ACM Solid and Physical Modeling Symposium 2008 http://www.cs.sunysb.edu/spm08 spm08@cs.sunysb.edu Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, New York, USA June 2-4, 2008 --------------------------------------------------- ACM Solid and Physical Modeling Symposium 2008 (SPM\'08) will be held on June 2-4, 2008, in Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, New York, USA. This highly successful conference series have been a primary venue for disseminating research results and exchanging new ideas in geometric and solid modeling, physical modeling, geometric design, analysis, simulation and processing, shape computing and visualization, and various applications. SPM\'08 will be immediately followed by the International Conference on Shape Modeling and Applications 2008 (SMI\'08), to be held in Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, New York, USA, on June 4-6, 2008. Both SPM\'08 and SMI\'08 events will be co-located in Stony Brook University, and are parts of the 2008 Stony Brook Modeling Week that features International Joint Convention on Shapes and Solids (ICSS\'08). Selected papers of outstanding quality accepted at SPM08 will be published in: IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, IEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering, Computer Aided Design, and Computer Aided Geometric Design. SPM08 Best Paper Award is sponsored by Siemens UGS.
