Therefore this is well suited for Ph.D. candidates, but not restricted to. Posters ---------- Authors are also invited to submit proposals for poster presentations. Posters will be displayed during the conference and will form the focus of a posters session to be run in conjunction with one of the social events. We encourage submissions from all areas which may be of interest to the community. Authors will be expected to be present at their posters during the posters session to discuss their work and answer questions. Submissions ----------------- To present your work during these Posters and WIP sessions, please send us an abstract (2 pages max.) which must be formatted following the same guidelines as for the full papers by September 30, 2015.

EUROGRAPHICS 2016

by eurographics＠eg.org

*********** EUROGRAPHICS 2016 ************ <http://eurographics2016.pt/> http://eurographics2016.pt/ The Eurographics 2016 Technical Papers Program will showcase innovative research in Computer Graphics and related areas. We invite submissions of new ideas, and encourage all forms of research creativity and originality. We are interested in practice, experience, novel applications, technological or theoretical papers, with the ambition of setting the standard in the field and stimulating future trends. Accepted full papers will be presented at Eurographics 2016 and published in a special issue of the Eurographics journal Computer Graphics Forum. Therefore, submissions will undergo a two-step review process. We encourage submissions from all areas related to computer graphics, including but not limited to rendering, modeling, animation, simulation, visualization, virtual and augmented reality, display technology, image processing, visual computing, computer-aided fabrication, human-computer interaction, and related disciplines. Submission Dates A preliminary abstract is due by 23:59 GMT, Friday, September 18, 2015, and the full paper deadline is 23:59 GMT, Friday, September 25, 2015. Note that a full paper can only be submitted if an abstract has been submitted by the abstract deadline. Submission Electronic submission of all papers is mandatory and will be conducted using the <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference%2fEG_2015> <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference%2fEG_2016> Submission and Review Management (SRMv2) system. Papers must be written in English, must be anonymized, and must be formatted according to the Eurographics Computer Graphics Forum guidelines. <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/EG_2016/Instruction> The publication guidelines and LaTeX templates are available on SRMv2. Accepted papers must be presented orally in English at Eurographics 2016. This event uses a double-blind reviewing approach, so please be sure to remove all personal data (such as authors, affiliations, etc.) from your submission. References to your own work should be made in the third person to maintain anonymity. Reviewers are asked to keep confidential all materials sent to them for evaluation. Non anonymous submissions will be rejected without review. Note that this year, there is no arbitrary maximum length imposed on papers. Papers should only be as long as they need to be, but not longer. Reviewers might rank submissions perceived as being either repetitive or unnecessarily long, lower than they would score concisely written papers. Double Submission Policy Authors are required to include a declaration that they have not previously published the scientific contribution claimed in their paper, nor has it been submitted to or is currently under review in any other conference or journal before or during the Eurographics 2016 Technical Papers review period. Any paper that does not adhere to these requirements will be rejected without review. Re-Submitted Material For papers that have previously been reviewed by other venues and have been rejected or withdrawn, the authors are encouraged to provide a cover letter to describe the history of the paper (however, this does not imply reviewer continuity). This cover letter can also answer the comments made in the previous reviews, by either listing the changes that were made to comply with them, or discussing/rebutting/clarifying some elements if need be. Though not mandatory, this procedure is strongly encouraged. The cover letter has to be submitted through SRM as an ‘Additional Attachment’ (see last section of the SRM upload form for details). Rebuttal, Notification, Publication & Prizes ● The reviews will be made available to the authors on November 13, 2015. During a rebuttal period from November 13 to November 18, 2015 authors will be able to submit a brief document to address any factual errors or clarify any issues raised by reviews. ● The date for notification of the results of the first round of the review process is December 5, 2015. ● Revised versions of the papers conditionally accepted in the first round must be submitted by December 31, 2015. The final notification of the outcome of the second reviewing round will be made on January 15, 2016. The camera-ready version of accepted papers will be due on January 31, 2016. ● From all accepted and presented papers, an international jury will select the best papers. The best paper will receive the Günter Enderle Award, including a cash prize of 1000 Euros, presented at Eurographics 2016.

EUROGRAPHICS 2016 - Call for Tutorials

by eurographics＠eg.org

The Eurographics 2016 Tutorials Committee invites you to propose tutorials teaching the technical background of a given subject, or demonstrating its potential 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. In a proposal for a tutorial you should consider that tutorial attendees come from diverse backgrounds, ranging from research and development to education and application. We are soliciting half-day and full-day tutorial proposals at the beginning, intermediate, or advanced level in all areas pertinent to Computer Graphics. Half-day tutorials are about three hours, plus a coffee break in the middle. Full-day tutorials are twice that long, plus two coffee breaks and a longer lunch break. Tutorial proposals are about 4-5 pages in length, clearly indicating the audience that is addressed as well as the syllabus of instruction. They will be reviewed by the tutorial chairs, supported by external reviewers. The final selection will be based on quality of the submission, qualification of the presenters, relevance to the conference topics, and balance of topics. Each accepted half day tutorial will be granted a free conference registration for one speaker, while each full-day tutorial will be granted a maximum of two free conference registrations. For any question concerning tutorial submissions please contact the papers program co-chairs: chairs-eg2016tutorials(a)eg.org SUBMISSION DETAILS Tutorial proposals (in PDF) should be submitted via email to the tutorial co-chairs (chairs-eg2016tutorials(a)eg.org). The full proposal (4-5 pages) should be submitted by Friday, October 23th, 2015, 23:59 UTC/GMT. The acceptance notification date is Friday, December 4th, 2015. The full proposal should contain the following information: Presenter(s) details: Name(s) Institution(s) email address(es) URL(s) Tutorial details: Title of Tutorial Keywords Half or full day tutorial (either 2×90 minutes or 4×90 minutes) A detailed outline of the tutorial. A statement on the necessary background and potential target audience for the tutorial. A brief resume of the presenter(s) indicating their background in the area the tutorial addresses. If a (similar) tutorial was previously held, indicate the location (i.e., which conference), date, and the number of attendees. Please provide information highlighting changes, improvements and/or why the tutorial should be held again in this form. COURSE NOTES Sample course notes, although not required in the submission, are highly encouraged to accompany the tutorial proposals. Notes may include original text, formatted according to the Eurographics publication guidelines, reprints of earlier papers (subject to copyright approval), slides and any other material the authors consider useful. All course notes of accepted tutorials will be distributed to conference participants online and on USB-Sticks. The acceptance of tutorial proposals is contingent upon the final submission of complete course notes.
