First Call for Papers Fifth International Workshop on Computer Graphics and Geometric Modeling, CGGM'2006 Reading University, Reading, UK, May 28-31, 2006 Conference web site: http://personales.unican.es/iglesias/CGGM2006/ Contact person: Andres Iglesias, iglesias@unican.es INVITATION ---------- In the last few years, Computer Graphics and Geometric Modeling have become some of the most important and challenging areas of Computer Science. This workshop solicits high-quality papers for presentation describing original research results in Computer Graphics and Geometric Modeling (see Topics below). All accepted papers will be published in the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) Series. In addition, the accepted papers will be scheduled for oral presentation. Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper. The workshop is a part of ICCS'2006, the 2006 International Conference on Computational Science to be held at The University of Reading, Reading (UK), May 28-31 2006. The previous editions of this workshop, CGGM'2002 held in Amsterdam (The Netherlands), CGGM'2003 held in Montreal (Canada), CGGM'2004 held in Krakow (Poland) and CGGM'2005, held in Atlanta (USA) were also published by Springer-Verlag (volumes 2330, 2668, 3039 and 3515 with a total of 35, 52, 24 and 22 contributions, respectively). Some selected papers of these workshops have been or are being published in Special Issues of some journals. The conference language will be English.
