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, workshops, demo and poster
sessions, lunches, reception and conference diner.
Student volunteers are responsible for their traveling and lodging expenses
during the conference days.
Applicants must be PhD students during the 2013-2014 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 7th 2014
morning before the start of the conference.

Short papers will be peer-reviewed in a one-stage double-blind process by
an international program committee. They will be electronically archived
and are fully citable publications. Submissions for the short paper track
should be at most 4 pages, with an additional page allowed for references.
Accepted short papers will be presented orally at the conference.
Submissions to the short paper track that are not accepted for short
paper publication and presentation but are deemed suitable for poster
presentation by the IPC will be offered an opportunity to present in the
poster track. In this case, the poster will be published on the conference
USB sticks.
Note:The topics of some short papers will fit well with those of the
co-located events, such as EuroVA and EGPGV. We strongly encourage authors
to
submit such papers to the respective co-located events.
Because of the tight submission schedule, we re-introduced an abstract
deadline. Therefore, for all short paper submissions it is mandatory to
submit an abstract by March 2, 2014.

Workshop: Towards Visualization Literacy
In recent years, visualization has reached almost every walk of life.
While the value of visualization has been appreciated by most people,
the widely-used visual representations remain fundamentally similar to
those invented some 300 years ago. When visualization research is leaping
ahead with innovative visual designs, we need to find effective means for
improving the visualization literacy within the larger population that
produces and consumes visual data analysis content as an integral part
of the agenda for visualization science and technology. The workshop aims
to engage visualization educators, practitioners, and researchers in a
discussion where we define and promote a new research agenda focused on
understanding and enriching popular visualization literacy.
Important Deadline:
Organizers:
Mario Romero, Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden.
Maria Velez, CA Technologies, USA.
Greg McInerny, Oxford, UK.
Deborah Silver, Rutgers University, US.
Min Chen, Oxford University, UK.
***
Workshop: Toward Visualization-Specific Heuristic Evaluation
This workshop is meant to be a community-wide collaborative effort to
further develop visualization-specific heuristics for use with
visualizations and visualization research. We will begin with a
short overview of heuristic evaluation as an evaluation technique -
both inside and outside the visualization community - then begin our
work of further developing a set of heuristics most appropriate for use
with visualizations. We intend to use ThinkTank - a group support software
tool - to help capture community input and to facilitate that effort.
With community-wide participation and engagement, we expect to emerge
from this workshop with a more fully-developed set of visualization-specific
heuristics for further application and research within the visualization
community.

Eurographics Workshop on Urban Data Modelling and Visualisation
2nd edition
EXTENDED DEADLINE - January 31, 2014: Paper submission
April 6th 2014 - Strasbourg, France
http://udmv.udg.edu/2014
Important dates:
- December 16, 2013: Call for papers

- March 7, 2014: Author notification
- March 21, 2014: Camera-Ready Paper Due
- April 6, 2014: Workshop date
The objective of this workshop is to discuss the modelling and visualisation
of the city at various temporal and spatial scales, and aims at sharing
associated techniques, methods, uses and points of view.
Managing and understanding urban data are major issues as there are
represented by several kind of different data at different scales. Urban
data not only embed the geometry of the city model, but also data related to
human activities (eg. social data, transports, mobility, history), to
physical phenomenon (eg. light, wind, heat), and to environment (eg.
geography, climate).
Thus, the processing of urban data is a huge challenge for current computing
capabilities, specially considering all the sustainable development
parameters related to architectural design, urban planning and urban climate
studies; but also considering the specific needs of entertainment, cultural
heritage or any domains using urban data.
The issues found in urban data modelling and visualisation are shared by
various domains (eg. Computer Graphics, Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality,
Human-Computer Interface, GIS, Conceptual Modelling and others) and are
related to data quality, the complexity of the cities and the
decision-making processes.
Contributions addressing the following topics are welcome:
- Modelling the static and dynamic features of the city (spatio-temporal
data)
- Multi-scale geometric data (from building scale to urban scale)
- Multi-scale temporal data (from real time to history time)
- Visualisation of several urban data layers (aggregated indicators)
- Visual analytics using urban data (decision making processes and CAD)
- Acquisition and generation of real or realistic urban data
Publication
Expected contributions are research papers, 6 pages in EG publication
format, presenting unpublished methods, algorithms and techniques with
established results.
All accepted papers will be presented orally at the conference by one of the
authors, and will be published in the EG Digital Library.

Dear colleague,
we would like to bring to your attention that the deadline for the first
call for EuroVis State-of-the-Art Reports is slowly approaching.
The deadline for submissions is 24th of January 2014 and the submission
through the <http://www.precisionconference.com/~vgtc/>
www.precisionconference.com/~vgtc/ has now been opened. More details on the
submission process are posted on the dedicated webpage:
<http://eurovis.swansea.ac.uk/submission-guidelines.htm>
http://eurovis.swansea.ac.uk/submission-guidelines.htm.
We welcome all areas of basic visualization research and also surveys from
interesting visualization application areas. The submission should be an
advanced draft of the report, between 10-20 pages long in the Eurographics
formatting style. The report should be original unpublished material,
although its basis can be a state-of-the-art chapter of a recent
Dissertation, for example.
For more information about the formatting guidelines, please refer to the
dedicated webpage:
<http://eurovis.swansea.ac.uk/author-guidelines.htm>
http://eurovis.swansea.ac.uk/author-guidelines.htm.
Please note that although we have taken Eurographics STAR Track as the basis
for designing the EuroVis STAR Track, there are two notable
differences:
1. Full Length Submission: Unlike with Eurographics STARs (which are
typically extended abstracts as an option), EuroVis STARs submissions are
expected to be an advanced draft of the report.
2. Open Peer Review Process: The authors of the reports as well as the
report reviewers will be disclosed during the transparent reviewing process.
Moreover, accepted STARs will list the names of the expert reviewers of the
reports.
We are looking forward to your submission to the first EuroVis STAR track!
Best wishes from,
Rita Borgo, Ross Maciejewski, and Ivan Viola EuroVis STAR Chairs
