Cyberworlds are information worlds or communities created on cyberspace by
collaborating participants either intentionally or spontaneously. As
information worlds, they accumulate information regardless whether or not
anyone is in, and they can be with or without 2D or 3D visual graphics
appearance. The examples of such cyberworlds are communities created in
different social networking services, 3D shared virtual environments, and
multiplayer online games. Cyberworlds are closely related to the real world
and have a serious impact on it, augment and sometimes replace the real life
and become a significant component of real economy. The international
conferences on Cyberworlds have being organized annually since 2002 with the
proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society and special issues published
in multiple journals, including The Visual Computer and Springer
Transactions on Computational Science. Cyberworlds 2013 will be organized by
the Society for Art and Science, Faculty of Science and Technology, Keio
University, Japan, in cooperation with ACM SIGGRAPH and EUROGRAPHICS, and
supported by IFIP.
The topics covered by Cyberworlds 2013 will include but are not limited to
- Networked and shared virtual worlds
- Virtual collaborative spaces
- Shape modeling for cyberworlds
- Virtual humans and avatars
- Multimodal interaction and rendering
- Computer vision for augmented and mixed reality

for exchanging research results on a wide range of topics related to the
creation of mathematical foundations and practical algorithms for the
processing of complex geometric data sets and models.
The scope of the meeting is quite broad. However, a special focus on
theoretical, numerical and modeling aspects of the Poisson-Boltzmann
equation and its applications to the NanoBiotechnology field will be given.
The scientific program will be based on different sessions, with plenary
lectures, oral communications, and poster sessions. The first day will be
mostly devoted to the model and numerical aspects of the Poisson-Boltzmann
equation solution, the second day will focus on geometric approaches and
discretization issues and the third will feature biological applications. A
special hands on DelPhi session is envisioned, allowing young researchers
interested in how to exploit the functionalities of the DelPhi
Poisson-Boltzmann solver to walk through worked examples and ask questions
on specific issues.

CALL FOR PAPERS
The 2013 ACM SIGGRAPH Conference on Motion in Games 2013 (MIG)
November 7-9, 2013, Dublin, Ireland
Submission Deadline: July 9, 2013
<http://www.scss.tcd.ie/conferences/MIG2013/>
http://www.scss.tcd.ie/conferences/MIG2013/
====================================================================
The Sixth International Conference on Motion in Games (MIG) will be hosted
in the historic city of Dublin, Ireland from November 7-9, 2013. MIG 2013
will be held in cooperation with Eurographics and, for the first time this
year, it will be sponsored by ACM SIGGRAPH, with papers appearing in the ACM
digital library.
Our confirmed speaker list for this year includes:
Stelian Coros, Disney Research, Zurich
Stephen Guy, University of Minnesota
Mark Pauly, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL) Ben
Sunshine-Hill, Havok
Games have become a very important medium for education, therapy and
entertainment. Motion plays a crucial role in computer games.
Characters move around, objects are manipulated or move due to physical
constraints, entities are animated, and the camera moves through the scene.
Even the motion of the player is used as input to games. Motion is currently
studied in many different areas of research, including graphics and
animation, game technology, robotics, simulation, computer vision, and also
physics, psychology, and urban studies. Cross-fertilization between these
communities can considerably advance the state-of- the-art in the area. The
goal of the Motion in Games conference is to bring together researchers from
this variety of fields to present their most recent results, to initiate
collaborations, and to contribute to the establishment of the research area.
The conference will consist of regular paper sessions, poster presentations,
as well as presentations by a selection of established researchers in areas
related to games and simulation. The conference program will also include

CALL FOR PAPERS -- SCA 2013
ACM SIGGRAPH / Eurographics Symposium on Computer Animation
<http://sca2013.cs.tamu.edu/> http://sca2013.cs.tamu.edu/
======================================================
The 12th annual Symposium on Computer Animation (SCA) will take place in
sunny Anaheim, California from July 19-21, immediately before SIGGRAPH. For
more than a decade, SCA has been the premier forum for innovations in the
software and technology of computer animation. Bringing together researchers
and practitioners working in all aspects of time-based phenomena, SCA's
focused, single track program creates an intimate setting that encourages
community interaction, promotes the exchange of research results, inspires
new ideas, and establishes new collaborations.
There will be Best Paper Awards, and top papers will also be invited to have
extended versions appear in a TVCG Special Issue.
REGULAR PAPERS: We invite submissions of original, high-quality papers on
computer animation, broadly defined as computation dealing with time-varying
phenomena. Each submission should be 7-10 pages in length, and will be
reviewed by an international program committee for technical quality,
novelty, significance, and clarity. All of the accepted regular papers will
be archived in the EG and ACM digital libraries.
SHORT PAPERS: Continuing the highly successful short papers track from last
year, we also invite 4-6 page submissions for quick dissemination of fresh,
compact ideas. These papers will undergo the same rigorous review process as
regular papers, appear in the electronic proceedings, and be archived in the
EG and ACM digital libraries.
We invite work on a broad range of topics, including:
o 2D, 3D, and N-D animation systems
o autonomous characters
o clothing animation and simulation
o expressive motion / communication
o facial animation
o group and crowd behavior
o intuitive interfaces for creating and editing animations
o mathematical foundations of animation
o methods of control and artistic direction of simulations
o nature in motion (natural phenomena, plants, clouds, ...)
o new time-based art forms on the computer
o novel time-varying phenomena
o perceptual metrics for animation
o perceptual foundations of animation
o physical realism / measuring the real world for animation
o physical simulation
o fluid animation
o planning / learning / optimization for animation
o real-time and interactive methods
o camera control methods for computer animation
o sound and speech for animation
as well as on related problems in robotics, game development, human-computer
interaction, simulation, visualization, computer vision, and others.
POSTERS: We also invite submissions to the poster and demo session, which
has traditionally been an integral part of the SCA program. There will be a
posters fast-forward session during which all presenters will have the
opportunity to give a one-minute description of their work. Posters are not
formal publications, so work submitted as a poster is still eligible for
later publication, and will be exempt from inclusion in the ACM and EG
digital libraries. Details regarding submission format will be announced
closer to the deadline.
Important Dates:
April 16: Paper submission deadline
May 12: Notification of conditionally accepted papers
May 24: Camera-ready papers due
May 31: Poster submission deadline
June 3: Notification of accepted posters
June 14: Camera-ready posters due
July 19-21: Symposium
All deadlines are 6 PM, US Eastern Daylight Time (UTC-4)
All papers will be reviewed carefully by the International Program Committee
members. Given the limited time between submission and final version, papers
will be evaluated as submitted.

Another reason why accommodation should be booked as soon as possible is
that the conference is just before the "flowers week" in Girona, a major
touristic local event that shouldn't be missed, if possible. Hotel and
travel information can be found on our website:
http://eg2013.udg.edu/accomodation.shtmlhttp://eg2013.udg.edu/travel.shtml
The 2013 program can be found at: http://eg2013.udg.edu/program.shtml

Association for Computer Graphics (Eurographics 2013). The workshop will
take place on May 11, 2013 in Girona, Spain.
The workshop will feature an exciting scientific program including a Keynote
by Prof. Henning Mueller on Medical 3D Data Retrieval; a set of research
paper and poster presentations; track reports from the 8th Shape Retrieval
Evaluation Contest (SHREC2013); and a social event.
Please see the workshop webpage at http://3dor2013.di.univr.it/ for
continually updated details on the tentative program, registration, workshop
location and accommodation in Girona. We recommended to book accommodation
early on.

3D Object Retrieval Workshop Series
--------------------------------------------
3D object representations have become an integral part of modern computer
graphics applications, such as computer-aided design, game development and
film production. At the same time, 3D data have become very common in
various domains such as computer vision, computational geometry, molecular
biology and medicine.
The rapid evolution in graphics hardware and software, in particular the
availability of low cost 3D scanners and modeling tools, has greatly
facilitated 3D model acquisition, creation, and manipulation, giving the
opportunity to a large user community to experience applications using 3D
models. As the number of 3D models is growing rapidly, the problem of
creating new 3D models has shifted to the problem of searching for existing
3D models. Thereupon, the development of efficient search mechanisms is
required for the effective retrieval of 3D objects from large repositories.
The aim of the 3DOR Workshop series is to stimulate researchers from
different fields such as Computer Vision, Computer Graphics, Machine
Learning and Human-Computer Interaction who work on the common goal of 3D
object retrieval, to present state-of-the-art work in the field. This
provides a cross-fertilization ground that stimulates discussions on the
next steps in this important research area.
