by Stefanie Behnke

| || || EuroVis 2011: Call for Posters & Demos -++---------------------------------------------------------------------- || Poster Chair: Július Parulek ( <mailto:Julius.Parulek@UiB.no> Julius.Parulek(a)UiB.no) || Submissions are due March 11, 2011 || Notification date is April 4, 2011 | -+ With this call for posters & demos, | we invite the active participation in EuroVis 2011 | (June 1-3, 2011, in Bergen, Norway) | with a poster and/or an interactive demo. -+ EuroVis 2011, | i.e., the Eurographics / IEEE Symposium on Visualization, | is annually organized | by the Eurographics Working Group on Data Visualization | and the IEEE Visualization and Graphics Technical Committee. | General URL: <http://www.EuroVis.org/> http://www.EuroVis.org/ -+ EuroVis 2011 Posters and Demos will be exhibited at the EuroVis | 2011 venue. In the poster/demo session, the presenters are | supposed to discuss their work with interested EuroVis attendees. | Additionally, there will be a preview session, where presenters | will have 60 seconds each to advertise their poster/demo to the | overall EuroVis audience. For the case of interactive demos, | we recommend to submit them together with an accompanying poster. -+ We welcome preliminary findings, which, for example, are not yet | mature enough for a full paper, interesting research work with a | contribution smaller than in a typical research paper (student | projects can fall into this category, for example), or late- | breaking research where the presenter can benefit from the feedback | from the community before writing a full paper. There is no | explicit requirement of novelty with respect to the involved | research. For instance, we welcome the demonstration of | open-source visualization software, even if its research aspects | have already been published in another venue, the presentation of | commercial visualization software, or of videos showing | visualization systems in action. Although a full literature review | is not expected, the most relevant previous work should be cited, | particularly if new research results are presented. -+ The collection of accepted abstracts will be distributed to the | attendees of EuroVis 2011 (xeroxed, black and white only). Still | they will not be included in the archival proceedings or indexed in | a digital library. Thus, posters do not preclude the later | submission of work as a full research paper at EuroVis 2012 or any | other venue. -+ Each poster/demo abstract will be read and evaluated by the Poster | Chair of EuroVis 2011 (in collaboration with the other EuroVis 2011 | Chairs). The submissions will be evaluated based on whether the | content is suitable for EuroVis and that it is not a repetition of | the work of others. The authors of posters that are not accepted | will receive a summary review of their poster from the chair(s) | explaining the decision and providing feedback. -+ Suggested topics for posters/demos include (but are not limited to): * Visualization Taxonomies and Models * Spatial Data in Visualization * Non-Spatial Data * Large Data Visualization * Visualization Techniques * Visual Analytics, Visual Data Mining, and Knowledge Discovery * Interaction * General Topics * Evaluation and User Studies * Application Areas of Visualization | More related keywords are available from the earlier published | Call for Papers at <http://www.UiB.no/EuroVis2011/call_for_papers.php> www.UiB.no/EuroVis2011/call_for_papers.php -+ Before submitting a poster/demo abstract, | please note the following: | -- Poster abstract submissions should be in two-column format | and should be one page in length (in exceptional cases, two | pages could be acceptable).

11th International Symposium on Smart Graphics (SG 11) : Call for Papers

by Stefanie Behnke

The 11th International Symposium on Smart Graphics (SG 11) July 18--20 Bremen, Germany Website: <http://www.smartgraphics.org/sg11/> http://www.smartgraphics.org/sg11/ E-Mail: smartgraphics(a)tzi.org ******************* * CALL FOR PAPERS * ******************* Overview ******** Advances in computer graphics have made visual media the heart of the user interface, and it is clear that graphics will continue to play a dominant role in knowledge work, entertainment, and the home. Indeed, as computers become more and more pervasive, as display sizes both increase and decrease, and as novel surface computing applications are conceived, new and challenging problems arise for the effective use, generation, and interpretation of computer graphics. The International Symposium on Smart Graphics will bring together researchers from Computer Graphics, Visualization, Graphic Art & Graphic Design, Cognitive Psychology and Artificial Intelligence, all working on different aspects of computer-mediated, computer-generated, or computer-interpreted graphics---and the user experiences they enable. This year's meeting will be held in Bremen, Germany. Smart Graphics ************** Graphics become "Smart Graphics" when: * Their design incorporates (and sometimes informs) a deeper understanding of human perception, cognition, and action in the form of design practice and/or cognitive science. * Artificial intelligence drives the creation and interaction with graphics, often incorporating principles from graphic design and the cognitive science of visual representations. * Graphics are designed to effectively support human cognition, communication, and collaboration, for example in the new field of visual analytics. Scope ***** Smart Graphics is grounded in a deep understanding of human abilities, activities, and desires. This understanding arises through the integration of fields such as art, design, and the social, cognitive, and perceptual sciences. Insights are realized in the form of novel methods for producing and interacting with rich graphical displays---often utilizing established techniques from Computer Graphics, Artificial Intelligence, and Computer Science in general. Such interfaces present content that * engages the user and is aesthetically satisfying, * participates in human cognition as external or distributed representations, is sensitive to the real-time demands of the interaction in the context of the available computational resources, and * adapts the form of the output according to a wider set of constraints such as an individual's perceptual, attentive, and motor abilities and the nature of the presentation media and available interaction devices. Smart Graphics research can be loosely divided into principles, methods and systems based research, and the symposium will encourage submissions in all these areas, based on the following characterization: * Principles: Principles of Smart Graphics include: theories of graphics design and visual aesthetics, and theories of graphical representations and interaction, design and testing of graphical systems, constraints on technological, computational and human (perceptual, cognitive and motor) resources, conceptualizations of graphics and interactive systems, representation and reasoning requirements for Smart Graphics, interaction between resource restrictions, design, requirements capture and evaluation methodologies, systems that make people smart. * Methods: New approaches to the design and testing of graphical generation, presentation and interaction for both conventional desk-top systems and new devices and media, acquisition and representation of design knowledge for Smart Graphics generation, empirical methods in the characterization of interaction, dealing with heterogeneous target media, application of planning, decision theory, optimization, constraint satisfaction, machine learning and other AI techniques to Smart Graphics, attentive systems, evaluation methods. * Systems: The application of Smart Graphics to visualization, virtual reality, augmented reality, mobile communications, wearable computing, graphical hypermedia, web-based systems, novel interaction techniques (e.g. attentive systems, haptic and natural language interaction), and advisory & tutoring systems. SG '11 welcomes submissions from computer graphics, HCI & AI researchers and practitioners, cognitive scientists, graphic artists and graphic designers. We specially encourage young researchers to submit their ideas and results. Call for Submissions ******************** Submission categories are divided into: * Full research papers: these will encompass comprehensive descriptions of original work within the scope of the symposium (limited to 12 pages in Springer LNCS format). * Posters: tentative or preliminary results of research or design work with emphasis on the interdisciplinary evaluation of the ideas (limited to 4 pages in Springer LNCS format). Poster papers will be included in the proceedings. * System demonstrations: short descriptions of research or design work that the authors intend to show and discuss in a demo session at the symposium (limited to 2 pages in Springer LNCS format). System demonstration papers will be included in the proceedings. * Arts track: computer animations, multimedia performance, interactive art, etc. Artists must submit a three page proposal outlining the concept and technique of the artwork, including a discussion of the relationship between smart technologies and their artistic and creative practice. An international jury of renowned scientists and artists will select the submissions. Selected works will be displayed during the Smart Graphics symposium, and presented to the public via an evening of performance, installation, and gallery exhibition at the compArt Center of Excellence Digital Art. A report of the arts track including all the selected works will be included in the proceedings. Topics ****** Topics of interest include (but are not restricted to): * computer graphics * artificial intelligence * cognitive science * scene perception * graphical abstraction * graphics design * virtual and mixed reality * entertainment computing * computational aesthetics * information visualization * visual analytics * multimodal interfaces * context-aware interfaces * non-desktop interfaces * surface computing * sketch-based interfaces * interaction design/user experience * human-computer interaction * interaction science * user studies Authors' Instructions ********************* As in previous years, proceedings will be published in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series.
