CALL FOR STATE-OF-THE-ART REPORTS
Accepted STARs will be published in Computer Graphics Forum
State-of-the-Art Reports (STARs) provide an up-to-date and comprehensive
overview of a special topic of current interest related to Computer
Graphics.
We welcome submissions on all topics relevant to EUROGRAPHICS, and
particularly encourage STARs on topics that have not been covered in any
recent previous STAR. A STAR can also address the use of Computer Graphics
techniques in a different scientific discipline or in industrial practice.
For examples of suitable STAR topics, please refer to the EUROGRAPHICS
digital library.
At EUROGRAPHICS 2016, the authors of a STAR will be given 90 minutes to
present the report at a level that also allows non-experts in the particular
domain to follow this presentation.
For any questions concerning STAR submissions please contact the STARs
co-chairs: <mailto:chairs-eg2016stars@eg.org> chairs-eg2016stars(a)eg.org
** Important Dates **
Full STAR submission: September 11, 2015
First review notification: January 8, 2016
Revised STAR submission: February 12, 2016
Second review notification: March 11, 2016
Final STAR submission: March 25, 2016
** Submission Details **
This year, STARs will undergo a single blind, double cycle review, similar
to the one for regular papers. Hence, there is no need to prepare a STAR
proposal first, and the full-length STAR with no more than 25 pages must be
submitted before the submission deadline.
Each STAR will be reviewed by three members of the IPC who are experts in
the respective topic. Accepted STARs will be published in a special issue of
Computer Graphics Forum, which appears right before the Eurographics
conference. Submissions needing a major revision will be transferred to the
standard submission track of Computer Graphics Forum.
Brief biographies of the authors should be included in the submission,
demonstrating their qualification to produce the proposed STAR.
Electronic submission of STARs is mandatory and will be conducted using the
<https://srmv2.eg.org> EG Submission and Review Management System
(https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/EG_2016STARs).
The deadline for the submission of STAR proposals is 23:59 UTC/GMT,
September 11, 2015, with notification of conditional acceptance on January
8, 2016. The revised version of conditionally accepted STARs will have to be
submitted at a later date for a second review, and the camera ready version
will be due about 6 weeks before the start of the conference.

CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS
The Eurographics 2016 Workshop Committee invites active members of the
community to submit proposals for Workshops to be held at the Eurographics
2016 Conference. Accepted workshops will take place during the weekend
before the main conference (May 7-8).
The workshops should focus on topics relevant to the Eurographics
researchers and offer a forum for discussions and interactions among
participants. They should differ from the main topics covered in the
conference yet attract fellow members of the community.
* Submission Details
The Workshop proposal should not exceed 5 pages (including CFP) and should
include the following details:
- Title
- Abstract
- Relevance and significance of this workshop to the main conference
- A short history of the workshop, if not being offered for the first time
- Length: Full day or half day
- Short bio of the workshop organizers (who should be experts in the related
topics and preferably from multiple institutions)
- Estimated paper submission volume and paper acceptance rate
- Expected attendance
-A draft workshop call for papers with:
- Names, affiliations, addresses and email addresses of the workshop
organizers
- A list of potential Program Committee members and their affiliations
Workshop proposal submissions should be sent to:
<mailto:chairs-eg2016workshops@eg.org> chairs-eg2016workshops(a)eg.org
* Review
Workshop proposals will be reviewed by EG2016 Workshop Chairs based on three
criteria:
a) the likely interest of the workshop to EG attendees
b) the breadth and depth of the topic
c) the expertise and credential of the organizer(s)
* Important Dates
Proposal Submission Deadline: September 15, 2015 Notification of Acceptance:
September 30, 2015 Workshop Days: May 7-8, 2016
For accepted workshops: Note that each accepted workshop should be
responsible for deciding their own submission and review timeline,
publicizing the workshop and compile the program. However, notification and
camera-ready deadline are enforced by the publisher and cannot be changed.
Thus, the deadline for Chairs to make sure that all materials from their
workshops are delivered to Proceedings Chairs in the camera ready format is
March 30, 2016.

PhD Student Position in Physically-Based Simulation
The newly founded Interactive Graphics and Simulation Group at
the University of Innsbruck, Austria invites applications for
the position of a PhD student in physically-based simulation,
with an application in surgical simulation.
We are seeking a motivated and talented PhD student with interest
and skill in physically-based simulation and surgical simulators.
The main focus will be on new approaches of interactive tissue
deformation computation in medical training systems. There is a
possibility for collaboration with an industrial partner in this
framework.
Candidates should have earned a Master or Diploma degree in
Computer Science, Mathematics, or other related fields. Good
knowledge in physically-based simulation is expected. In addition,
some experience with surgical simulation is of advantage. Further,
knowledge of virtual/augmented reality and computer haptics is
also a plus. Experience and knowledge in C/C++ programming is
expected, as well as a good level in English, both written and
spoken.
Candidates should send electronically an application with complete
CV, grades and transcripts, relevant certificates, and links to
relevant prior publications via email. The compiled material
should be sent in PDF format to:
<mailto:matthias.harders@uibk.ac.at> matthias.harders(a)uibk.ac.at
We are looking forward to hearing from you.

Verona, October 15,16 2015
<http://www.stag2015.eu> http://www.stag2015.eu
****************************************************************************
**
The aim of the conference is to focus on smart novel ideas and smart
customization of existing modeling and rendering techniques for
effective Computer Graphics applications. The goal is also to bring
together practitioners, users and researchers, which will hopefully
inspire further collaboration between participants particularly between
academia and industry.
The topics are (but not limited to):
Modeling Rendering
Animation Imaging and image processing
Human-Computer Interaction
Graphics systems Applications
Information visualization
Volume graphics Web graphics
In particular, we are looking for:
Tricks and Hacks: clever ways to optimize or otherwise improve
known techniques or algorithms for real-world applications
Original Techniques and Algorithms: new ways to solve real
problems. Methods that offer improvements over ones in common use.
Experience/Advice: how to make practical use of known research
results. For example, what are the parameter settings that really work?
How much precision is needed? How many data points?
************************************************************************
Important Dates:
Submission deadline: July 31, 2015
