We are pleased to announce the fifth Workshop on Virtual Reality Interaction
and Physical Simulation VRIPHYS 08.
The workshop is hosted by the Grenoble Universities, France, November 13-14,
2008. It is organized in cooperation with Eurographics.
VRIPHYS is one of the well-established international conferences in the
field of computer animation and virtual reality.
The workshop provides an opportunity for researches in virtual reality and
computer animation to present and discuss their latest results and to share
ideas for potential directions of future research.
Looking for forward to meeting you in Grenoble,
Matthias Teschner and François Faure.
Call for papers
The Swedish Chapter of Eurographics invites contributions to the conference

aspects of interactive computer graphics and related areas describing either
proven and tested solutions or novel ideas and concepts. Topics for
submissions include but are not limited to the following areas::
* Graphical user interfaces
* Interactive visualisation
* Computational steering
* User interfaces for visualisation
* Training and simulation
* Real-time rendering methods
* Systems and software architectures
* Solutions and algorithms for virtual/augmented reality applications
* Experimental studies of existing methods and techniques
Instructions to the authors
Submissions may be full papers or short papers.
Full papers should not exceed 10 pages in length. Short papers, describing
novel ideas, work-in-progress and/or recent results, should be no longer
than 4 pages. Note that both types of submissions must be formatted
according to the same recommended style mentioned below, and all accepted
papers will be published in the Proceedings of the conference.
Authors are requested to submit their paper by September 30th, 2008 by email
to submissions2008(a)sigrad.se. The subject of the email should be "SIGRAD
submission". Authors experiencing problems with electronic submission of
contributions should contact the conference chair directly. The submission
email should contain the names and institutions of all authors, contact
