Eurographics VAST'09 - 1st Call for Papers

by Stefanie Behnke

====================================================================================== 10th VAST International Symposium on Virtual Reality, Archeology and Cultural Heritage 7th Eurographics Workshop on Graphics and Cultural Heritage (VAST'09) September 22-25, 2009, Valletta, Malta http://www.vast2009.org ====================================================================================== -------------------- Call for Papers -------------------- -Towards a "digital agenda" for the integration of technologies into Archeology and Cultural Heritage- Nearly every organization whose mission includes promoting access to cultural information, is well aware of the value of digital applications, and digital technologies are finding their way into cultural organizations. Nevertheless, a clear-cut division still exists between humanities researchers, computer science researchers, information scientists, librarians, and campus technologists, which prevents a complete achievement of the potential represented by the integration of these disciplines. Each community has distinctive practices, lingo, assumptions, and concerns. Understanding technology needs of the humanities, and more specifically of Archaeology, Libraries and Cultural Heritage, has particular relevance to the future of knowledge and education delivery, as well as, to develop shared technology services to enhance humanities research now and in the future. The main goal of this VAST is to bring together professionals from all fields to start a true dialogue on CH needs and ICT solutions and achieve a true integration of disciplines. This VAST aims at disseminating the idea of a more systematic integration of digital practices in research and education programs for CH, exploring good practices, guidelines and skills development possibilities to structure long-term initiatives and move towards a "digital agenda" for Archaeology, Libraries and CH. This is why we are seeking contributions that advance the state of the art in the technologies available to support sustainability of human heritage. - 2/3/4D Data Capture and Processing in CH - Augmentation of physical collections with digital presentations - Data Acquisition Technologies - Digital Libraries - Digital capture and annotation of intangible heritage (performance, audio, dance, oral) - Interactive Environments and Applications for CH - Long term preservation of digital artefacts - Metadata, classification schema, ontologies and semantic processing - Multilingual applications, tools and systems for CH - Multimedia Data Acquisition, Management and Archiving - Multi-modal interfaces and rendering for CH - On-site and remotely sensed data collection - Professional and Ethical Guidelines - Serious games in CH - Standards and Documentation - Storytelling and Design of Heritage Communications - Tools for Education and Training in CH - Usability, Effectiveness and Interface Design for CH Applications - Visualization - KEYNOTE SPEAKERS - Archeology: Dr Zahi Hawass - General Secretary of the Supreme Council of Antiquities of Egypt Museums: Mme. Christiane Naffah - Director of the Research and Restoration Center for France Museums - BEST PAPERS AWARD - The best papers presented at VAST 2009 will be selected for re-submission on a special edition of the upcoming ACM Journal on Computing and Cultural Heritage (JOCCH), an online, peer reviewed publication. - (NEW!) VAST-STARs - VAST 2009 introduces the "VAST-STate-of-the-Art Reports (VAST-STARs)", inspired by the EG STARs. These are papers providing useful novel overviews of research in the fields of computer graphics, computer science and related fields that can benefit the multidisciplinary nature of VAST. They are survey papers in what the community considers important areas that have not been covered before or recently. Their aim is to give a detailed account of the principles, algorithms and open problems of a research area, so that an interested reader can quickly become up to speed in this field. We warmly encourage all colleagues to submit to the VAST-STARs reports. The VAST-STARs will be published with the full papers and are also eligible for the best paper award. Two VAST-STARs will be selected by peer review and will be published in the EG proceedings together with the full papers. VAST-STARs authors will present their work with a 60 minute presentation during VAST 2009. - PAPER SUBMISSIONS - We are soliciting five types of contributions: =Full research papers presenting new innovative results. These papers will be published by Eurographics in a high-quality proceedings volume. =VAST-STARs providing a useful novel overview of research in the fields of computer graphics, computer science and related fields that can benefit the multidisciplinary nature of VAST. =Project papers focusing on on-going projects, the description of project organization, use of technology, and lesson learned not innovative technical content.

6th Eurographics/ACM Symposium on Sketch-Based Interfaces and Modeling CFP

by jjl＠eecs.ucf.edu

SBIM 2009 Sixth Eurographics/ACM Symposium on Sketch-Based Interfaces and Modeling August 1-2, 2009, New Orleans, LA USA Co-located with SIGGRAPH 2009 Advances in pen-based computer hardware have enabled digital sketch-based interfaces to emerge as a powerful way to combine the quick and intuitive feel of paper with the power of computation. However, fully realizing the potential of these sketch-based systems requires effective user interface design and underlying algorithms to analyze the input. The goal of this symposium is to explore models, algorithms and technologies needed to enable effective sketch-based interfaces. It investigates novel methods for classification and recognition of hand-drawn shapes, and the ways of using these techniques for creating or editing digital models, from text, mathematics, and 2D diagrams to 3D shapes. Likewise, the symposium explores the application of sketch-based interfaces to 3D computer graphics, animation, and CAD, as well as other specific applications such as diagram editing and note taking.. Finally, the symposium welcomes empirical user studies aimed at clarifying the nature of sketch-based interfaces and comparing them to other interaction techniques. Created in 2004, SBIM provides a unique venue for researchers, students and practitioners interested in sketch-based techniques to interact with one another, share lessons learned, show new results and discuss open issues. This year, the symposium will be held in New Orleans, Louisiana and will be co-located with the 36th International Conference and Exhibition on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques (ACM SIGGRAPH 2009). The two-day symposium will include paper presentations (single track), coffee breaks, a social event, and a keynote talk by Dr. Mark Gross of Carnegie Mellon University. All are welcome to attend SBIM; submission of a paper is not required for attendance. The proceedings will be published in the EG Symposia series and made available online through the Eurographics and ACM Digital Libraries. Authors are invited to submit original papers on topics in pen-based 2D and 3D modeling, sketch recognition, and pen-based interface design, including, but not limited to: Multimodal interfaces for sketching Novel sketch input devices Novel pen-based interaction techniques Low level ink processing and pen stroke segmentation Sketch parsing, classification and recognition Sketch-based interfaces for CAD systems Sketch-based modeling and editing of 3D shapes Sketch-based control of animations Sketch-based interfaces for other applications (surface editing, diagram creation, mathematical annotations, games, etc.) Rendering techniques for sketch-based systems (NPR) Sketches for Medical and Volume data editing Sketch-based retrieval of multimedia information Usability studies of sketch-based systems Studies of the impact of sketching on creativity and design Multi-touch interfaces and applications Important Dates April 15, 2009 Paper Deadline May 20, 2009 Notification of Decisions June 1, 2009 Final Papers Due August 1-2, 2009 Conference Dates Conference Organization General Chair: Nathan Carr and Faramarz Samavati Program Chairs: Cindy Grimm and Joseph J.
