[PG2016] abstract submission deadline extended

by eurographics＠eg.org

Dear All, We decided to extend the abstract submission deadline to May 30 23:59 UTC (or May 30, 16:59 PDT), because of the following reason. We found a problem with the abstract deadline; the abstract deadline in the submission management system was different from the one shown on the website of PG2016. Consequently, the abstract submission system was closed earlier several hours by mistake. We apologize for the mistake. Due to this mistake, some authors failed to submit their abstracts. To compensate for this, we decided to extend the abstract submission deadline to May 30 23:59 UTC (or May 30, 16:59 PDT). If you failed to submit your abstract, please try again until the extended deadline, May 30, 23:59 UTC (= May 30, 16:59 PDT). Please note that the paper submission deadline is unchanged; it is June 3, 23:59 PDT. Best regards, PG 2016 Program Co-chairs Eitan Grinspun, Bernd Bickel, Yoshinori Dobashi

by eurographics＠eg.org

Call for Posters: ACM SIGGRAPH / Eurographics Symposium on Computer Animation (SCA) Zurich, July 11-13, 2016 Conference website: https://sca2016.ethz.ch Submission deadline: May 29, 2016 Notification: May 31, 2016 The 15th annual Symposium on Computer Animation (SCA) will be held in beautiful Zurich, Switzerland, July 11-13 2016, at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zurich). SCA is the premier forum for innovations in the software and technology of computer animation. It unites researchers and practitioners working on all aspects of time-based phenomena. Our focused, intimate gathering, with single track program and emphasis on community interaction, makes SCA the best venue to exchange research results, get inspired, and set up collaborations. Don't miss out! **Posters** We invite submissions to the poster and demo session. As in previous years, the poster and demo session will be an integral part of the SCA program. Note that posters are not formal publications, so work submitted as a poster is still eligible for later publication. Posters will be included the ACM and EG digital libraries. Note however that as usual, a SCA poster does not preclure subsequent publication of a complete paper on the same topic by the same authors (however, a SCA poster by other authors is considered prior art and should be cited as such). We encourage any of the following types of poster submissions: - Up and coming computer animation research - Technically novel production work - Work done outside of SCA that would be of interest to the computer animation community. This includes animation-related works recently accepted to other conferences. - Half-baked ideas and negative results **Electronic Submission** All PDF poster submissions should be submitted via email to sca2016.posters(a)gmail.com by the deadline. Due to GMail's limits, each email message must be less than 25MB. If this is not sufficient for your submission or supplemental materials, you may send your submission in parts as attachments to several emails. For supplemental materials, links to external websites are also allowable. Submissions must be camera-ready, with author names and affiliations listed. The review process will be single blind. Poster abstracts should consist of a PDF formatted according to the Eurographics / Computer Graphics Forum style, and be no more than 1 page in length. Posters should be written and presented in English. Supplementary material such as videos may also be submitted electronically and will be made available to reviewers. Finally, we also encourage the authors to submit a draft of the poster of size A0 in PDF as supplementary material. Poster abstracts will be included in the ACM and EG Digital Libraries, thus providing a better and longstanding referencing to such works. **Fast Forward Slide** Authors of accepted posters will be required to provide a PowerPoint slide describing their work for the poster fast forward presentation session. A slide template and video guidelines will be provided to presenters. **Oral Presentation** For the final presentation, videos and interactive demonstrations are highly encouraged. We will provide electrical outlets and tables so that authors can display such demonstrations using their own equipment. **Important Dates** All deadlines are 23:59 GMT. Poster submission: May 29, 2016 Poster notification: May 31, 2016 Camera-ready posters: June 10, 2016 Symposium: July 11-13, 2016 **Organization Committee** Conference chairs: Barbara Solenthaler, ETH Zurich, Switzerland Matthias Teschner, University of Freiburg, Germany Program chairs: Ladislav Kavan, University of Utah, USA Chris Wojtan, IST Austria, Austria Poster chair: Jan Bender, TU Darmstadt, Germany
