SPECIAL SESSIONS
----------------
Special Sessions will include: Tutorials, Workshops and Panels
For a Special Session proposal to be considered for acceptance at
DigitalHeritage 2015, the proposed topic needs to be a presentation of
teachingobjectives (tutorials), contributions to the state-of-the-art, new
initiatives or an emerging area in one of the core themes of the conference.
The topic should be timely and significantly important to the audience, and
the speakers need to convey compelling information about it.
Tutorials should be planned as half-day or full-day, at introductory,
intermediate or advanced levels, and could cover any theme among the entire
spectrum of topics of the Conference. They could focus vertically on
technology, or could demonstrate its potential for 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. While
proposing a tutorial, authors should consider that tutorial attendees come
from diverse backgrounds, ranging from research and development to
education, curatorship and applications.
Proposals for Workshops and Panels will be judged by the ability to
bringtogether key researchers from the CH as well as ICT domains, aiming at
introducing a new area to the overall community, to further develop it, and
to help establishing a larger research community beyond that area. Special
session proposals covering multi-disciplinary areas are particularly
encouraged, as well as those proposals regarding common challenges, e.g.
(and not restricted to) Methods in Archaeology, Museums and Technology, etc.
Special Session submissions (up to 4 A4-pages) should contain the following
information:
- A title and brief description of the content or topic and its relevance
to the DH community (not more than 1,500 words);
- Full contact information for all tutorial instructors or workshop
leaders, including a one-paragraph statement of their research interests and
areas of expertise;
- A short CV for each presenter, participant or authors who have agreed to
participate with their results to the session
- A description of target audience and expected number of
participants(based, if possible, on past experience);
- Any special requirements for technical support.
Additionally, Tutorial proposals should include:
- A brief outline showing that the core content can be covered in a half
day (approximately 3 hours, plus breaks). In exceptional cases, full-day
tutorials may be supported as well.
Workshop proposals must include:
- The intended length and format of the workshop and the forecasted number
of attendees;
- A proposed budget (as DH workshops are expected to be self-financing).

---------------------------------------------------------
EuroVis 2015 is the 17th annual scientific gathering on visualization
jointly organized by the Eurographics Working Group on Data Visualization
and the IEEE Visualization and Graphics Technical Committee.
Based on the continued growth and success of the event, EuroVis will be a
conference for the fourth time.
The posters track will present late-breaking results, work in progress, and
follow-up extensions or evaluations of existing methods. In particular, it
provides young researchers, especially postgraduate students, with valuable
opportunities to receive feedback from other researchers, and engage in
stimulating discussions.
A EuroVis poster may describe a piece of work in any aspect of
visualization. For directly-submitted posters, we particularly encourage
summary report of collaborative projects, work in progress, and application
case studies.
Important Dates:
- submission: 23:59GMT, Tuesday, 7/Apr/2015
- notification: Monday, 20/Apr/2015
Submission:
We solicit poster submissions in the form of a poster and an accompanying
sketch (i.e., an extended abstract of at most 2 pages, with an additional
page allowed for references only).
Posters will be peer-reviewed in a one-stage double-blind process.
Accepted poster will be presented at the poster session of the conference.
Both a PDF version of the poster and the sketch will be included on the
conference USB sticks.
Traditionally, the materials in a poster/sketch can be reused later by the
original authors for a more extensive publication (e.g., a full paper) with
more detailed content and mature results. This should not be considered as
self-plagiarism.
However, as posters/sketches are citable, researchers are encouraged to
acknowledge novel ideas and results presented in posters/sketches.
Short papers are submitted using the SRM submission system:

Heritage 2015, the proposed topic needs to be a presentation of teaching
objectives (tutorials), contributions to the state-of-the-art, new
initiatives or an emerging area in one of the core themes of the conference.
The topic should be timely and significantly important to the audience, and
the speakers need to convey compelling information about it.
Tutorials should be planned as half-day or full-day, at introductory,
intermediate or advanced levels, and could cover any theme among the entire
spectrum of topics of the Conference. They could focus vertically on
technology, or could demonstrate its potential for 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. While
proposing a tutorial, authors should consider that tutorial attendees come
from diverse backgrounds, ranging from research and development to
education, curatorship and applications.
Proposals for Workshops and Panels will be judged by the ability to bring
together key researchers from the CH as well as ICT domains, aiming at
introducing a new area to the overall community, to further develop it, and
to help establishing a larger research community beyond that area. Special
session proposals covering multi-disciplinary areas are particularly
encouraged, as well as those proposals regarding common challenges, e.g.
(and not restricted to) Methods in Archaeology, Museums and Technology, etc.
Special Session submissions (up to 4 A4-pages) should contain the following
information:
- A title and brief description of the content or topic and its relevance
to the DH community (not more than 1,500 words);
- Full contact information for all tutorial instructors or workshop
leaders, including a one-paragraph statement of their research interests and
areas of expertise;
- A short CV for each presenter, participant or authors who have agreed to
participate with their results to the session
- A description of target audience and expected number of participants
(based, if possible, on past experience);
- Any special requirements for technical support.
Additionally, Tutorial proposals should include:
- A brief outline showing that the core content can be covered in a half day
(approximately 3 hours, plus breaks). In exceptional cases, full-day
tutorials may be supported as well.
Workshop proposals must include:
- The intended length and format of the workshop and the forecasted number
of attendees;
- A proposed budget (as DH workshops are expected to be self-financing).
