From: "Stefano Foresti" Subject: InfoVis Digest - Issue 3, Volume 2 Date: Mon, 12 Mar 2001 17:41:21 -0700 InfoVis Digest -------------- [...] =======================================================> POST 3 From: David Breen [david@druggist.gg.caltech.edu] Subject: IEEE 2001 PVG 2001 IEEE 2001 Symposium on Parallel and Large-Data Visualization and Graphics (PVG 2001) Sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society and in cooperation with Eurographics and ACM SIGGRAPH October 22-23, 2001 Paradise Point Hotel San Diego, California PVG 2001, the IEEE 2001 Symposium on Parallel and Large-Data Visualization and Graphics, will be held on October 22-23, 2001 in conjunction with IEEE Visualization 2001. This is the 5th meeting in a series that began with the Parallel Rendering Symposium. The current title reflects an expanded emphasis on large data models, scientific visualization and graphics, in addition to photorealistic rendering. This emphasis is intended to address subject areas outside the bounds of larger conferences, e.g. IEEE Visualization or ACM SIGGRAPH. Papers are due March 31, 2001 and are expected to address issues of large data models, parallelism, or both, as applied to problems in visualization and graphics. Although large data models and parallelism are often linked, submission of papers focusing on small-scale parallelism and non-parallel large data techniques is encouraged. We are also interested in hardware, survey papers, and state-of-the-art case studies. Possible topics include: o Parallel algorithms, architectures and software o Load balancing, scalability and performance o Mesh/data simplification o Feature extraction o Multi-resolution and out-of-core techniques o Isocontouring and volume rendering o Vector/tensor field visualization o Parallel rendering, modeling and simulation o Displays, multi-model interaction and virtual reality o Graphics/network accelerators and systems Submission: The deadline for submissions is March 31, 2001. Final papers will be limited to 8 proceedings pages plus one page of color figures. Case studies are limited to 4 proceedings pages plus one page of color figures. E-mail your submission in either PDF or compressed Postscript to pvg2001@gg.caltech.edu. Specify the type of submission in the subject line of your e-mail (PAPER or CASE STUDY). In addition, send five copies of any accompanying NTSC video to the following postal address: Dr. Alan Heirich/PVG2001 2024 Touraine Lane Half Moon Bay, CA 94019 USA Electronic submission of video and animation in Quicktime, AVI or Shockwave formats will also be accepted.
