We invite you to participate in the fourth joint Eurographics - IEEE
TCVG Symposium on Visualization. This workshop is a well-known
international forum to exchange experience and knowledge among
researchers and developers. Papers and case studies will form the
scientific content of the event. Research papers are invited that
present original scientific ideas or significant improvements to
existing techniques from all areas of visualization. Case studies
report on the successful application of visualization methods to some
special problem of field.

Suggested topics for research papers include, but are not limited to:

Flow visualization            Human factors in visualization
Volume rendering              User interaction techniques
Surface extraction            Visualization systems
Information visualization     Large data sets
Internet-based visualization  Multi-variate visualization
Data base visualization       Multi resolution techniques
Biomedical Applications

Case studies are invited from any application area, including:
Physics, Aerospace, Biomedicine, Chemistry, Molecular Biology,
Finance, Mathematics, Hypermedia Structures, Data mining.


The papers submission schedule is as follows:

December, 7, 2001:    Full papers due (extended deadline)

Isabel Navazo, Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya, Spain

Workshop Venue and Format

The event will be held at the Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya in
Barcelona. The event is open to all those with an interest in
Visualization applications and research; students, in particular, are
encouraged to participate. The symposium will be organized as a
single-track assembly of presentations of research papers and case
studies. Enough time for discussion was scheduled after the talks and
inbetween the sessions. The Programme will also include an Invited
Talk by Gregory Nielson.


Paper Submission

As in previous years, proceedings will be published by IEEE and
EG. Starting this year, the proceedings will be part of the ACM
SIGGRAPH Members Plus offerings.
Authors are requested to prepare their contribution as a full paper
(research paper: up to ten pages; case study: up to six pages) in PDF
format. More information on paper submission could be found on the
VisSym'02 www page.


Related Events

VisSym'02 will be followed by the 8th Eurographics Workshop on Virtual
Environments EGVE'02. This workshop will be held from May 30-31 in
