EGPGV 2022 (Early Deadline)

by Eurographics Mailing List

Call for Papers The Eurographics Symposium on Parallel Graphics and Visualization (EGPGV) aims to foster the exchange of experiences and knowledge on exploiting and defining new trends in parallel graphics and visualization. This area is of growing importance due to the rapidly increasing availability of multi-core CPUs, GPUs, and cluster systems. Computationally demanding and data-intensive applications in graphics and visualization are strongly affected by this trend and require novel, efficient parallel solutions. EGPGV has two submission deadlines: early submission in December and regular submission typically in February. This offers authors the flexibility to choose between two separate submission deadlines. The early submission deadline also provides the opportunity of improving manuscripts and resubmitting them to the regular deadline in case they are not successful in the early review phase, resembling a major revision review process. An FAQ about the early submission process can be found at the bottom of this email. Please notice also that this year there are again abstract deadlines one week in advance to the paper deadlines. EGPGV 2022 will take place on June 13, 2022, and be co-located with EuroVis 2022, held June 13-17, 2022, in Rome, Italy. The proceedings of EGPGV will be published in the Eurographics Proceedings Series and in the Eurographics Digital Library. Best papers from the EGPGV symposium will be invited to submit an extended journal version to IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics. EGPGV seeks papers on graphics and visualization that involve any type of parallel computing, and/or focus on very large data sets. Papers on techniques, data structures, algorithms, systems, and applications are welcomed. Parallel computing is broadly defined, including high-performance computing and cloud environments, (multi-)GPU computing and heterogeneous, hybrid architectures, and shared and/or distributed memory architectures. Further, papers focused on processing very large data sets (either for visualization or graphics) are welcomed, even if they do not have a particular focus on parallelism. Typical symposium topics include: - Computationally and data-intensive rendering - Scientific visualization (e.g., volume, flow, and tensor visualization) - Information visualization and visual analytics - In situ analytics and in situ visualization - Out-of-core processing of large data sets for visualization or graphics - Simulations for virtual environments (physics-based animation, collision detection, acoustics) - Mesh processing, level-of-detail, and geometric methods - Visual computing (image- and video-based rendering, image processing and exploitation, segmentation) - Scheduling, memory management, and data coherence - Parallelization approaches and algorithms, such as MapReduce - Database-related methods, algorithms or approaches, and query-based visualization - Advanced hardware for data handling or visualization - Large and high-resolution displays, virtual environments - Scientific, engineering, and industrial applications - Data analytics on large scientific data sets - Machine learning as applied to parallel graphics, visualization and/or large data analytics In general, appropriate topics for the symposium fall into one of four categories: (1) parallel graphics, (2) rendering of very large data sets, (3) parallel visualization and analytics, and (4) processing of large data sets for visualization or analytics. For additional information regarding paper submission and publication, please contact the program chairs. EGPGV again calls for Full Papers (8 to 10 pages) and Short Papers (up to 4 pages) in Eurographics format (+ 1 page of references). The EGPGV webpage will be updated soon with more details on submission. Important Dates: December 6, 2021 - Early Submission Abstract Deadline December 13, 2021 - Early Submission Paper Deadline January 24, 2022 - Early Submission Notification February 25, 2022 - Regular Submission Abstract Deadline March 4, 2022 - Regular Submission Deadline For additional information, please contact us via <mailto:papers@egpgv.org> papers(a)egpgv.org. EGPGV Leadership: Symposium Chair: Filip Sadlo, Heidelberg University, Germany Program Co-Chair: Roxana Bujack, Los Alamos National Laboratory, USA Program Co-Chair: Julien Tierny, CNRS / Sorbonne Universite, France FAQ on Early Submission: Q: What happens if my paper is accepted in the early submission review cycle? A: Your paper will have the exact same status as any paper accepted during the regular submission review cycle. It will appear in the proceedings and you will present your paper at EGPGV22. Q: Who can benefit from the early submission process? A: There are benefits whether the paper is accepted or not accepted. For accepted papers, the benefit is in getting acceptance earlier and having more time for, e.g., travel organization. For multiple minor revisions, major revisions, and rejected papers, the benefit is in effectively adding a revision cycle, i.e., getting feedback from the early submission and then submitting the revised paper to the regular submission deadline. Q: If I do not submit to the early submission deadline, can I still submit to the regular submission deadline? A: Yes, you can absolutely submit to only the regular submission deadline. Q: What is the timeline for the regular submission deadline? A: We are still in discussions with Eurographics with respect to camera-ready deadlines. Traditionally, EGPGV has a submission deadline of late February and a notification of early April. We expect the timeline for the regular submissions to match this traditional schedule. Q: What paths can an early submission take? - It might be accepted straightaway on January 24. - It could be conditionally accepted on January 24, which would require a revision on February 7. This could result in an accept, another conditional accept, or a reject on February 14. In case of another conditional accept, the revision will be due at the regular submission deadline. In case of a reject, the work can be resubmitted as new at the regular submission deadline. - It could receive a major revision decision on January 24, which would be due at the regular submission deadline. - It could be rejected on January 24. In this case, the work can still be resubmitted as new at the regular submission deadline.

EG TUTORIALS 2022

by Eurographics Mailing List

EG TUTORIALS 2022 Call for contributions The Eurographics2022 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. Full-day tutorials should be motivated by sufficient scientific material. 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 the quality of the submission, qualification of the presenters, relevance to the conference topics, and balance of topics. Digital support of accepted tutorials will be made available to every Eurographics registered participant and will also be included in the Eurographics digital library. Eurographics does not require copyright for the tutorial notes it publishes. The tutorial speakers may reuse their material freely. For each accepted tutorial, one free registration is provided per half-day of that tutorial. TIMELINE November 14, 2021 Submission of full tutorial proposals December 20, 2021 Acceptance/rejection notification March 27, 2022 Submission of final materials (see course notes below) * All deadlines are at 23:59 UTC SUBMISSION DETAILS Tutorial proposals (in PDF) should be submitted by using the <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/EG_2022TUT> Eurographics Submission and Review Management (SRMv2). The submitted proposals should contain the following information: Presenter(s) details: * Name(s) * Institution(s) * Email address(es) * URL(s) Tutorial details: * Title of the 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, videos, software, datasets, and any other material the authors consider useful. The acceptance of tutorial proposals is contingent upon the final submission of complete course notes. Upon acceptance of the tutorial, additional material should be submitted using the same link in the SRM system as for submitting the proposal. All course notes of accepted tutorials will be distributed to conference participants electronically. EUROGRAPHICS TUTORIAL CHAIRS Stefanie Hahmann, LJK-INRIA, Grenoble INP, France Gustavo Patow, ViRVIG-UdG, Universitat de Girona, Spain For any questions concerning tutorial submissions please contact the tutorial co-chairs: chairs-eg2022tut(a)eg.org <mailto:chairs-eg2022tut@eg.org>
