CFP: Eurographics Workshop on Natural Phenomena

by Stefanie Behnke

Call for Papers Eurographics Workshop on Natural Phenomena http://egwnp.liris.cnrs.fr Dublin, Ireland Aims and Scope Synthesizing realistic natural scenes is a challenging and important problem in computer graphics. The challenge stems not only from the complexity and diversity of objects and natural phenomena interacting together, but also from the huge amount of small details that should be modeled to obtain realistic models and physically plausible simulations. Therefore, there is still a need for interactive modeling and simulation techniques capable for handling complex synthetic sceneries. The purpose of this workshop is to explore novel techniques for modeling, animating, simulating and rendering complex natural phenomena. The workshop will build on work done in recent years including simulating aging and weathering of synthetic objects, plant modeling, ecosystem simulation, gaseous phenomena and liquid flows. It will focus on non-concious or inanimate nature like rock, trees, oceans, wind, meadows (animals and humans as part of nature should be excluded). Work in this area, promising as it is, is still far from complete. Authors are invited to submit technical papers in these or related areas. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Plant structure modeling - Ecosystem simulation - Gaseous phenomena (clouds, fog .) - Simulating liquid flows - Modeling fire and smoke - Aging and weathering - Terrain modeling Submission Procedure (all submissions are electronic) Authors are requested to submit papers, no longer than 10 pages, with the main body set in Eurographics Conference Paper Format. You can download a set of LaTeX style files from http://egwnp.liris.cnrs.fr. Each paper should contain title, authors' names and affiliations, abstract, keywords, text, illustrations and references. Detailed guidelines are available through the Workshop Site. We will accept papers in PDF format only. Please contact the conference organizers should you experience any problems with electronic submission. Post-workshop proceedings will be available on-line through the Eurographics Digital Library and in paper book form in the Eurographics Book Series. Selection will be based upon technical and scientific content and relevance to the workshop. Workshop Format The workshop will take place just before the Eurographics'05 Conference (August 30, Dublin, Ireland) to encourage a broad range of participants. As such, it will provide a very interesting opportunity for researchers that want to attend or present communications at both events. The workshop will be held in one day, including paper presentation and invited sessions. Participation is open to everyone, not requiring submission of a paper. Important Dates May 2, 2005 Submission deadline June 15, 2005 Notification of acceptance July 8, 2005 Deadline for camera-ready copies August 30, 2005 Workshop (one full day) Workshop Chair Eric Galin, France Program Chair Pierre Poulin, Canada International Program Committee M.-P.

In this emerging area, concepts from applied mathematics, computer science, and engineering are used to design efficient algorithms for the acquisition, reconstruction, manipulation, simulation and transmission of complex 3D models. Applications of geometry processing algorithms cover a wide range of areas from multimedia, entertainment, and classical computer-aided design, to bio-medical computing, reverse engineering, and scientific computing. We are now inviting submissions related to, but not limited to, the following topics in geometry processing: - geometry and topology representations - compression of static or animated geometry - surface and volume parameterization - approximation and meshing - reverse engineering - simplification and level of detail - smoothing and denoising - computational geometry - multiresolution shape analysis and synthesis - geometric aspects of rendering and other fields - interactive techniques - animation and simulation The proceedings of the symposium will be published in the Eurographics Proceedings Series, in cooperation with ACM SIGGRAPH. Note also that there will be three prestigious invited speakers: * Herbert Edelsbrunner, Duke University * Luis Velho, Instituto de Matematica Pura e Aplicada * Marc Alexa, Technische Universität Darmstadt ---- Important Dates: Electronic abstract submission deadline: April 20, 2005 Electronic paper submission deadline: April 27, 2005 Author notification of acceptance: May 23, 2005 Camera-ready copy deadline: May 31, 2005 Symposium: July 4-6, 2005 ---- Submission procedure: Details of this all-electronic submission procedure are available on the official SGP website: http://www.geometryprocessing.org Authors are requested to submit an abstract for their paper (in plain text format) by April 20, 2005. The abstract submission should contain the names and institutions of all authors, contact information of one contact author (name, e-mail, postal address, phone and fax numbers), and the working title and abstract of the submission. Submitted manuscripts should be prepared for double-blind review, and should be original work, not concurrently submitted to any other venue. The length of a submitted papers should typically not exceed 10 pages, formatted in the proper publication style (LaTeX files available online). A submission can also be accompanied by electronic supplementary material (e.g, video). Submitted papers will be carefully reviewed by members of the Program Committee (see list online and on attached flier) and selected external reviewers. ----- NEW THIS YEAR: Papers with obvious potential but that did not make the cut may be invited to present a poster during the symposium: these posters will also be advertised through two-page descriptions, all gathered in a separate proceedings document given to the symposium participants. ----- For information on location, registration, and other details, please visit: http://www.geometryprocessing.org
