From: "Ivan Herman" To: Subject: CFP Rendering WS 2000 Date: Fri, 25 Feb 2000 09:22:58 +0100 --------------------------------------- 11th EUROGRAPHICS WORKSHOP ON RENDERING --------------------------------------- Brno, Czech Republic, June 26-28, 2000. http://www.fee.vutbr.cz/egrw2000 e-mail: egrw2000@dcse.fee.vutbr.cz --------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS --------------------------------------- Aims and Scope -------------- Following ten successful workshops in the last ten years, the eleventh Eurographics Workshop on Rendering will take place in Brno, Czech Republic, first time in the Eastern Europe. It is organised by the Department of Computer Science and Engineering of Brno University, of Technology in association with Eurographics, in the context of the Eurographics Working Group on Rendering Activities. The workshop is well established as a major international forum for the exchange of ideas and experiences in the area of rendering algorithms and techniques. Topics ------- Submissions are invited in (but not limited to) the following areas: o Local and global illumination and reflection models and methods o Monte Carlo and finite element techniques o Sampling, filtering, and anti-aliasing o Visibility algorithms o Human perception and error measures o Texture models, analysis, and synthesis o Image-based rendering o New rendering hardware and new uses of existing hardware o Rendering on low end graphics platforms o Experimental or practice-and-experience comparative studies of existing methods o Rendering solutions for virtual/augmented reality and interactive systems o Non-photorealistic rendering Research and development driven by real-world applications are encouraged. In order to include application reports and papers with preliminary results or speculative ideas, a short paper category (6 page limit) is available in addition to full papers (12 page limits). The category of submitted papers will be decided based on the reviewing results, but authors may submit papers specifically to the short paper category. As has been the tradition in previous workshops, the presentation format will allow for ample discussion time. The number of participants will be limited to 90. Internationally known speakers will give invited lectures. Submission Procedure: --------------------- NOTE: ALL SUBMISSIONS THIS YEAR ARE ELECTRONIC. Authors are requested to submit (via anonymous ftp) a file containing the submitted paper in either PDF (preferable) or PostScript format to the following ftp site: Server Name Directory ----------- ---------- ftp.emse.fr /pub/incoming/egwr2000/ using the following file naming convention: FirstAuthorLastname_FirstInitialMiddleInitial_FileNumber.filetype For example, the second file submitted by John Peter Smith should be named as: smith_jp_2.pdf Set options to embed all non-standard fonts in your submission file, whether submitting PostScript or PDF, and set image resolution to 144 dpi in the PDF converter. If you are using a non-Adobe tool for creating your PDF, please submit PostScript, also. Authors experiencing problems with electronic submission of contributions should contact the program co-chairs. An electronic cover sheet should also be e-mailed to BOTH co-chairs, containing the names and institutions of all authors, contact information of one contact author (name, e-mail, postal address, phone and fax numbers), and the (not necessarily final) title and abstract of the submission, by midnight (CEST) of Tuesday, March 28, two days before the paper submission deadline. Courier-service mail will be used only for those submissions that the co-chair find unusable, and for videos accompanying papers. In the latter case, one paper copy of the paper should be sent along with five copies of the accompanying videotape to one of the two program co-chairs. An effort should be made to include the segment in both PAL and NTSC on the same VHS tape, to ensure that it can be seen by all reviewers. An authors toolkit including LaTeX and MS Word style files is available from the conference Web page http://www.fee.vutbr.cz/egrw2000. Submissions missing the deadline will be considered with reduced priority, to the extent practical within the short review cycle. Schedule -------- Important dates in year 2000 are: ------------------------------------------------------------ Tuesday, March 28 Electronic abstract submission deadline Thursday, March 30 Electronic paper submission deadline Saturday, April 1 Submission deadline for videos Saturday, May 13 Author notification Friday, June 2 Camera-ready copy deadline June 26 - 28 Workshop ------------------------------------------------------------ Organization ------------ Workshop participants will be charged a modest registration fee. The fee includes includes lunch and coffees, workshop handouts and the final proceedings book (that will be mailed after the workshop). Student discounts will be made available based on sponsoring. Social events and a journey are also planned and will be charged separately. Detailed information including travel information on Brno and its area is provided at the conference Web page http://www.fee.vutbr.cz/egrw2000.
