Eurographics 2017 call for student volunteers.
The EG2017 Student Volunteer program is a great opportunity for young
researchers to attend a major conference in Computer Graphics and to
establish and expand their network with the most relevant academicians,
professionals and other students in the field.
Student Volunteers are integral part of the success of a conference. We are
in the process of recruiting a team of reliable and enthusiastic students
who help us host and manage a successful, productive and enjoyable
conference. A wide range of responsibilities will be assigned to volunteers,
such as:
. Support at the Registration desks
. Badge checks for technical sessions, workshops, demos, reception and
dinner
. Support at the Help desks
. Help with setting up and maintaining demos, poster and other arrangements
. Audio and video support
. Helping hand for organizing committee
In general, no special skills are required except for one or two positions,
where we are looking for individuals with good photography, blogging, and
A/V skills.
For their time and unmeasurable efforts, student volunteers will receive a
full student registration. This includes free access to the entire
conference, including technical sessions, demo and poster sessions,
reception and conference diner.
Student volunteers are responsible for their traveling and lodging expenses
during the conference days.
Applicants must be Master or PhD students during the 2016-2017 academic
year. The individuals must have a positive attitude and have good
communication skills in English.
Volunteers are required to show up 5-10 minutes before their allotted
service times and be available to help out for unforeseen surprises, which
are difficult to predict. We expect every volunteer to commit to a total of
about 15 volunteer hours of work at the conference (over 5 days).
Responsibilities and time allotment during the conference will be sent to
the volunteers a few weeks before the start of the conference, and
volunteers must plan to attend the information meeting on April 24th 2017
morning before the start of the conference.
Application Process:
Applicants must be PhD or MSc students during the 2016-2017 academic year.
Candidates should send a short CV (one page), a motivation letter, a proof
of valid student status (ID card, document signed by advisor or dean of
department) at the following address: <mailto:contact@eurographics2017.fr>
contact(a)eurographics2017.fr
The deadline for applications is February 20, 2017.
We will send out notifications until February 28, 2017.

Eurographics 2017 Symposium on Parallel Graphics and Visualization (EGPGV 2017) Call for Papers
=========================================================================
June 12-13, 2017, Barcelona, Spain
Co-located with EuroVis 2017
http://www.vis.uni-stuttgart.de/egpgv/egpgv2017/
Dear colleagues,
The importance of parallel computing is increasing rapidly with the ubiquitous 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. The aim of this symposium is to foster the exchange of experiences and knowledge exploiting and defining new trends in parallel graphics and visualization. The proceedings of the EGPGV Symposium 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. Focusing on parallel computing, the symposium seeks papers on graphics and visualization techniques, data structures, algorithms, and systems for:
- large-data
- HPC and cloud environments
- (multi-)GPU computing, and heterogeneous, hybrid architectures
- shared and/or distributed memory architectures
- out-of-core
The symposium topics include:
- computationally and data intensive rendering
- scientific visualization (volume rendering, flow, and tensor visualization)
- information visualization and visual analytics
- in-situ analytics and in-situ visualization
- 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
- distributed, parallel, or multi-threaded approaches
- mapReduce-based and database-related methods, algorithms or approaches, query based visualization
- advanced hardware for data handling or visualization
- large and high resolution displays, virtual environments
- scientific, engineering, and industrial applications
Submission types
========================
You are invited to submit original and unpublished research works. Two types of submissions are accepted, as follows.
Full papers
========================
Full papers are expected to be eight to ten (8-10) pages in length, with the final length appropriate to the contribution of the paper. Submissions are to be formatted along the Eurographics paper publication guidelines. We expect that full paper submissions will clearly discuss the novel and significant contributions as well as related work in the field. Authors must highlight how their contributions differ and advance the state of the art in parallel graphics and visualization. The full paper and all supplementary material, if any, must be submitted via the PCS online system.
Short papers
============================
This year we introduce a new type of submission: short papers. Short papers target the same interest topics as full papers, but are maximally 4 pages in length. As such, they typically address novel ideas or work in progress which has not been sufficiently solidly validated as for full papers. Short papers can also target use-cases and applications of parallel graphics and visualization, presentation of parallel graphics and visualization tools and systems, industry success stories, and showcases of applications making use of parallel graphics and visualization. The short paper track thus broadens the visualization showcase track that was present in earlier editions of EGPGV. Short papers and their supplementary material, if any, must be submitted via the PCS online system.
Accepted papers (both full and short) will appear in the symposium proceedings and be published via the Eurographics Digital Library.
Submission process
=================
Papers are accepted when submitted via the PCS system (precisionconference.com). Additional details with respect to the submission process will be announced shortly on egpgv.org/egpgv2017
Reviewing process
=================
Both paper types (full and short) will be reviewed by at least three members of the International Program Committee (IPC), in a single review pass. Full papers deemed insufficient in terms of the contribution level expected for a full paper, but presenting otherwise interesting, novel, and valuable results, can be selected by the IPC to be accepted as short papers. The review process is not double blind; we leave it to the latitude of the authors whether they want to disclose their identity in their submissions.
Important Dates
=================
Papers Submission: March 6, 2017
Author Notification: April 21, 2017

EuroVis 2017 Short Paper Track
Call for Papers
Deadline: 23:59GMT, Feb 17th 2017
---------------------------------
For the sixth time, EuroVis 2017 features a short paper track to present
late-breaking results, work in progress, and follow-up extensions or
evaluations of existing methods. Short papers will be peer-reviewed in a
one-stage double-blind process by an international program committee. Short
papers will be electronically archived and are fully citable publications.
All accepted short papers will be presented orally at the conference.
Submission Information
----------------------
Submissions for the short paper track should be at most 4 pages, with an
additional page allowed for references. All submissions must be original
works that have not been published previously in any conference proceedings,
magazine, journal, or edited book.
A EuroVis short paper describes a more focused and concise research
contribution and is likely to have a smaller - yet still significant - scope
of contribution than a full paper. Short papers draw from the same paper
types as full papers, as well as the same list of suggested topics. The
following descriptive examples, which are characterized in contrast to full
papers, may be helpful in understanding what kinds of submissions may be
suitable for short papers:
A new visualization technique or system and evidence of its utility
compared to known techniques or systems (described in sufficient detail to
assist an expert reader in replicating the technique or system, but without
exhaustive implementation detail and evaluation).
An incremental improvement or variation of an existing visualization
technique or system with convincing evaluation.
An extensive evaluation of an existing visualization technique or system.
A well-proven counter-example to an existing visualization technique that
helps to understand its limitations.
A new implementation approach that has demonstrably addressed a
significant technical issue (without extensive evaluation of the
implementation).
A new methodology for designing or studying visualization systems that has
demonstrable benefits for the EuroVis community (without extensive
evaluation of the methodology).
For detailed paper preparation and submission instructions please refer to
the guidelines in the Submitter Area on the conference web page at
http://eurovis2017.virvig.es/ (to be updated). Note that the style for the
final camera-ready version is included in that for full papers and can be
found under Author Guidelines at
http://eurovis2017.virvig.es/index.php/for-submitters/authors-guidelines.
For any questions concerning short paper submissions please contact the
co-chairs: ev2017-short(a)cs.upc.edu
