Call for Papers: Eurographics Symposium on Rendering 2015

by eurographics＠eg.org

=============================================== Eurographics Symposium on Rendering June 24-26, 2015 Darmstadt, Germany http://egsr2015.gcc.tu-darmstadt.de/ =============================================== CALL FOR PAPERS Eurographics Symposium on Rendering 2015 will take place in Darmstadt, Germany, from June 24 to June 26, 2015. This 26th event continues the series of highly successful Eurographics Symposia and Workshops on rendering. This year brings some changes to the submission process: the introduction of a second "Experimental Ideas & Implementations" track in addition to the traditional EGSR papers track (the "CGF track"). Authors have the choice of submitting their work to either the CGF track, the experimental track, or both. The CGF submission track will remain as is, and continue the long tradition of disseminating state-of-the-art academic results in rendering and related fields. The papers in this track will be, as before, published as an issue of Computer Graphics Forum after a full peer review, including a rebuttal and a 2nd review cycle. In addition, EGSR 2015 introduces a new "Experimental Ideas & Implementations" conference papers track. Its explicit goal is to solicit submissions that describe either exciting ideas that are not (yet) validated according to the high academic standard of the CGF track, or interesting implementation details for known algorithms in industry-scale uses. In particular, requirements on comparisons to related work, citations, and quality of results are relaxed in exchange for the key questions: is the idea stimulating and interesting? Would it spark discussion and give valuable insights to the rendering community? Papers in this track will undergo full double-blind peer review using its own review form, and be published in the EGSR conference proceedings series, but not the CGF journal. There is no rebuttal or 2nd review cycle. As per common practice, the authors have the possibility to build on top of the conference paper, add comparisons and validation, and submit the work to a journal later. Please see below for FAQ regarding the new track. For both tracks, we are looking for work that shapes the future of rendering and related fields. In particular, we encourage submission in the related topics of appearance modeling, computational displays, fabrication, and hardware architectures. Neither papers track has a fixed maximum limit on the number of pages. However, submissions over 12 pages in length will be treated as exceptional cases, and length must always be in proportion to contribution. Core conference topics include (but are not limited to): Global illumination Real-time and offline rendering Acquisition, modeling, and manipulation of light transport & appearance Realistic, non-photorealistic, 2D, and 3D image processing & synthesis Mathematical techniques for image synthesis Computational photography/optics/displays Software and hardware systems/architectures for rendering Audio/sound rendering We hope to see you and your work in Darmstadt! Jaakko Lehtinen Derek Nowrouzezahrai EGSR 2015 papers chairs IMPORTANT DATES =============================================== Abstract deadline Wednesday Apr 1 Papers deadline Sunday Apr 5 Reviews due Sunday May 3 Rebuttal due Wednesday May 6 (for CGF track only) Author notification Thursday May 14 Final papers due Thursday May 21 Final notification Sunday May 24 (for CGF track only) All times are 23:59 (midnight) UTC. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS about the Experimental Ideas & Implementations Track =============================================== Q: What's the process with the extended journal version? A: Once you have a paper accepted in the new track and published in the conference proceedings, many journals, CGF included, apply the rule by which adding 30% new material and addressing any major issues that preclude journal publication qualifies the revised paper for consideration in the journal. The authors should indicate the nature of the submission in a cover letter. In addition, the EGSR papers committee and CGF editors may, at their discretion, invite select papers from the Experimental Ideas & Implementations track to a fast-track second review cycle in Computer Graphics Forum. Q: Why would I submit to both tracks? A: Should the committee decide your paper is not, in the form it was submitted, suitable for the CGF track, it then has the option of accepting it to the Experimental Ideas & Implementations track. You, the author, get a paper, valuable feedback, visibility for your ideas, and the possibility of later extending your work into a journal paper. However, if you feel your contribution clearly falls within the scope of the Experimental Ideas & Implementations track but not the CGF track, please only submit to the the former. This makes the job of the reviewers and the committee easier, which is of particular importance because the review schedule is tight. Q: What if my paper includes interesting system and implementation details but less algorithmic or mathematical novelty? A: We would love to consider your work for the Experimental Ideas & Implementations track! Q: What if I have an intriguing idea but I have no idea if it works or not, or it only works in a certain special case? A: We would love to consider your paper for the Experimental Ideas & Implementations track! Come present it and we'll all talk about it together. Q: Are Experimental Ideas & Implementations papers presented in separate sessions? A: No. In the spirit of promoting new and interesting ideas, all papers will be presented alongside in sessions that fit their topic.

A groundbreaking public display of cutting edge digital heritage projects will also grace the conference venue at Granada's Alhambra and Parque de las Ciencias.Following the successful format of the first DigitalHeritage in 2013, the conference will have a single call for papers and a coordinated scientific review process across all the federating events. We are seeking original, innovative and previously unpublished contributions in theoretical or applied Digital Heritage areas. All papers will be double-blind peer-reviewed by at minimum 3 referees from the International Scientific Committee. Every submission will have at least one technical and one cultural reviewer to ensure a rich diversity of accepted works spanning both technology and the humanities. All submissions will be reviewed for originality, significance, clarity, impact, and soundness. Digital Heritage 2015 is composed of a number of parallel tracks, including full and short papers, special sessions (tutorials, workshops and panels), exhibitions, and special events. SUBMISSIONS =========== Since this is a joint World Congress, you need to submit only once to be considered for the integrated joint proceedings of all affiliated events. We remind that we will have a single review process and publication. Each submission shall indicate the specific Digital Heritage 2015 Theme (see below) that is more relevant. You may submit to participate in DigitalHeritage in one of several ways: PAPERS Full (8-page properly formatted paper via EasyChair) Short (4-page properly formatted paper via EasyChair). Short papers can be presented as oral presentations or posters. Note that papers not considered ready for full publication may be redirected as posters. SPECIAL SESSIONSWorkshop/Tutorial/Panel (up to 4-page overview via EasyChair) EXPO Exhibit (up to 4-page overview via EasyChair) See the following sections for submission details and deadlines. SUBMISSION PROCEDURE ==================== All submissions will need to be submitted by means of EasyChair that is accessible through https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=digitalheritage2015 FULL AND SHORT PAPERS --------------------- Submitted manuscripts should not exceed 8 pages for long papers (including figures, tables and references) and 4 pages for short paper presentations. Authors should select a single scientific Theme for each submission. The two best papers on each theme will be invited to submit an extended version of the paper to a an International Journal including: - ACM Journ. on Computing and Cultural Heritage - JOCCH (http://jocch.acm.org/) - Journal of Cultural Heritage (Elsevier, http://www.journals.elsevier.com/journal-of-cultural-heritage/) - Digital Applications in Archaeology and Cultural Heritage - DAACH (Elsevier, http://www.journals.elsevier.com/digital-applications-in-archaeology-and-cul tural-heritage/) Short papers will be presented at the event by either an oral presentation or by means of a poster and e-posters presentation. Authors of a short paper should indicate the preferred way of presentation (Oral or Poster). As the conference adopts a double-blind reviewing process, authors must ensure that any information that links authors or co-authors, e.g. affiliations, contact details, e-mails, to the paper are removed on the paper for the first submission step. Registration details on easyChair should remain at place.Full and Short papers must be formatted in IEEE double column, single space format, A4 page. The word style or the LaTeX template can be downloaded from the IEEE site. SPECIAL SESSIONS ---------------- Special Sessions will include: Tutorials, Workshops and Panels For a Special Session proposal to be considered for acceptance at Digital Heritage 2015, the proposed topic needs to be a presentation of teaching objectives (tutorials), contributions to the state-of-the-art, new initiatives or an emerging area in one of the core themes of the conference. The topic should be timely and significantly important to the audience, and the speakers need to convey compelling information about it. Tutorials should be planned as half-day or full-day, at introductory, intermediate or advanced levels, and could cover any theme among the entire spectrum of topics of the Conference. They could focus vertically on technology, or could demonstrate its potential for creative applications. Tutorials are intended to show what can be done, but even more importantly, how this is done and what kind of tools can be used to do it. While proposing a tutorial, authors should consider that tutorial attendees come from diverse backgrounds, ranging from research and development to education, curatorship and applications. Proposals for Workshops and Panels will be judged by the ability to bring together key researchers from the CH as well as ICT domains, aiming at introducing a new area to the overall community, to further develop it, and to help establishing a larger research community beyond that area. Special session proposals covering multi-disciplinary areas are particularly encouraged, as well as those proposals regarding common challenges, e.g. (and not restricted to) Methods in Archaeology, Museums and Technology, etc. Special Session submissions (up to 4 A4-pages) should contain the following information: - A title and brief description of the content or topic and its relevance to the DH community (not more than 1,500 words); - Full contact information for all tutorial instructors or workshop leaders, including a one-paragraph statement of their research interests and areas of expertise; - A short CV for each presenter, participant or authors who have agreed to participate with their results to the session - A description of target audience and expected number of participants (based, if possible, on past experience); - Any special requirements for technical support.Additionally, Tutorial proposals should include: - A brief outline showing that the core content can be covered in a half day (approximately 3 hours, plus breaks). In exceptional cases, full-day tutorials may be supported as well.
