Eurographics Symposium on Parallel Graphics and Visualization (EGPGV'06) May 11-12, 2006, Braga, Portugal
Call for Papers
Aims and Scope of the Symposium
Following successful previous workshops/symposia that were held in
Grenoble (F) 2004, Bristol (UK) 1996, Rennes (F) 1998, Girona (E)
2000, and Blaubeuren (D) 2002, we are pleased to announce the 6th
Eurographics Symposium on Parallel Graphics and Visualization. The
aim of this symposium is to share experiences and knowledge of
parallel and distributed computing and its application to all aspects
of computer graphics, virtual reality, scientific and engineering
visualization.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Cluster based graphics and visualization
- Efficient graphics and visualization for shared and distributed
memory systems
- Parallel and distributed systems for large and high resolution
displays
- Parallel and distributed systems for photo-realistic rendering
- Parallel volume rendering
- Real-time systems for 3D virtual reality
- Data coherence in graphics algorithms
- Large data set visualization
- Large model realistic rendering
- Large scale simulations and graphics rendering
- Graphics and visualization in grid environments
- Parallel simulations for interactive applications
- Parallelism within GPU architectures
- GPU clusters
The EGPGV Symposium will follow the Eurovis06 Symposium on Visualization and
the Eurographics Workshop in Virtual Environments that will take place on May 8-9, 2006 in
Lisbon, Portugal.
Invited Speakers
Alan Chalmers
Department of Computer Science
University of Bristol
United Kingdom
James T. Klosowski
Visualization Systems
IBM T. J. Watson Research Center
Papers and Posters Submissions
The proceedings of the symposium will be published in the Eurographics Proceedings Series in cooperation with ACM SIGGRAPH.
Selected papers will also be
published in a Special Issue of the journal "Parallel Computing"
following a tradition established on 2004.
A short paper session will take place during the symposium. Each short paper will be allowed a 4 page publication in a separate booklet distributed to the symposium attendees. Only the short paper should be submitted for now; authors should afterwards prepare a poster to bring and display at the conference site.
There will be a "best paper" award based on the content of the
paper and selected by the Program chairs. There will also be a "best presentation" award based on the oral presentation and selected by all the symposium attendees.
There is a page limit of eight pages for the submitted papers. These must be prepared as a PDF file adhering strictly to the
Eurographics Submission Instructions.
