Symposium Outline:
  Following successful workshops in Swansea (1999) and Stony Brook
  (2001), the 3rd International Workshop on Volume Graphics, VG03,
  aims to bring together researchers and applications developers from
  both the academic and industry sectors who are working, or wish to
  work, on volume-based graphics techniques to assess and review the
  techniques for volume-based modeling, rendering, manipulation and
  applications, and to explore further the potential of volume-based
  techniques, especially beyond the scope of volume visualization.
  VG03 is co-scheduled with CG International'03 (July 9th-11th, 2003).
