Dear Colleagues,
 
The 5th Geometric Modeling and Processing conference (GMP 2008) will be held in Hangzhou, China on April 23-25, 2008. Now the online submission system for GMP 2008 is available via its website:
http://www.math.zju.edu.cn/gmp2008/conf
 
Geometric Modeling and Processing (GMP) is a biannual international conference series on geometric modeling, simulation and computing. The modeling and processing of geometric data is fundamental to many computer applications, including computer graphics, computer vision, CAD/CAM, medical imaging, engineering analysis, robotics and scientific computation. GMP conferences provide researchers and practitioners with a forum for exchanging new ideas, discussing new applications, and presenting new solutions. GMP2008 is the fifth GMP conference. The previous GMP conferences were held in Pittsburgh, USA(2006), Beijing (2004), Tokyo (2002), and Hong Kong (2000).
 
Please bookmark the conference website and check regularly for updates.
