*********************************************************
The ICGI 2018 - International Conference on Graphics and Interaction
2018 (former EPCGI - Portuguese Meeting on Computer Graphics and
Interaction) will take place between 15 and 16 November 2018 at the Faculty
of Sciences of the University of Lisbon, in Portugal. It is a joint
organization between the Large-Scale Informatics Systems Laboratory (LASIGE)
and the Eurographics Portuguese Chapter with the support of the Faculty of
Sciences of the University of Lisbon.
The ICGI2018 aims to bring together researchers, teachers and professionals
in the areas of Computer Graphics, Image Processing, Computer Vision and
Human-Computer Interaction, providing a forum for the dissemination of work
carried out or ongoing and the exchange of scientific results, experiences,
and new knowledge between the academic, industrial and end-user communities.
The Scientific Program will include presentations of long and short papers,
invited plenary presentations and poster session.
Authors are invited to submit original manuscripts reporting scientific
work, experiments or applications. Long papers should not exceed eight pages
and short papers should not exceed four pages. The poster submission will
consist of a manuscript, in the same format as the papers, with a maximum of
2 pages to be included in the proceedings. The official languages of the
conference are English, Portuguese and Spanish.
Papers should be formatted according to the instructions available at:
https://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.htm
l
and should not present any information that identifies its authors (double
blind review). References to works by the same authors should be indicated
as [BFRP].
The submissions can only be done electronically, in PDF format, through the
conference submission system
(https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icgi-2018). Long papers written in
Portuguese or Spanish should also include the title and abstract in English
so that they can be submitted for archiving and indexing on the IEEE Xplore
Digital Library platform
The accepted papers will appear in the ICGI 2018 digital proceedings (book
with ISBN). Similar to the previous (EPCGI) editions, long papers will be
submitted to IEEE Xplore Digital Library.
Authors of high quality papers will be selected and invited to submit
extended and significantly revised versions of their papers to the following
publications:
- Computers & Graphics
(http://www.journals.elsevier.com/computers-and-graphics)
- International Journal of Creative Interfaces & Computer Graphics - IJCICG
(http://www.igi-global.com/IJCICG)
Note: the selected papers may be subject to the proper review process of the
respective publications and must be written in English.
During the event, prizes for best paper and best paper of young researcher
will be awarded.
It is therefore with great pleasure that we invite you to submit
contributions to the ICGI 2018 and attend the event, taking place at Faculty
of Sciences of the University of Lisbon, Lisbon, Portugal, on November
15-16, 2018

The International Conference on Artificial Reality and Telexistence (ICAT
2018) and the Eurographics Symposium on Virtual Environments (EGVE 2018) are
two of the oldest international conferences in the world on Artificial
Reality and Virtual Environments, and provide a unique opportunity for
researchers, developers, and users to share their experience and knowledge
of Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, Mixed Reality and 3D User Interfaces.
ICAT-EGVE 2018 is a great opportunity to renew old friendships, make new
ones, and experience all that Cyprus has to offer.
Limassol, a city counting centuries of history, is located between two of
the most renowned ancient kingdoms of the island, Amathus at the east and
Kourion at the west. "Lemessos" as it is called by locals, is one of the
fastest growing modern metropolises in Europe, with the most distinct
project being the Limassol Marina. The beautiful coastline now covers a 15
kilometers distance, lined with hotels and beach bars and cafes,
interspersed with eucalyptus groves and linked by a promenade popular with
walkers and joggers. For more information see here
<http://icat-egve2018.rise.org.cy/about-limassol/> . ICAT-EGVE 2018 is
organized by the newly established RISE-Research Center on Interactive
media, Smart systems and Emerging technologies which aims to become a Center
of Excellence and a hub across the three continents bordering Cyprus,
facilitating thus the local scientific, technological, and economic growth
of the region. More information about the center can be found here
