The submissions introduce novel research in a range of areas relevant to the conference; it will be certainly be an exciting series of presentations this summer in Paris. A tentative program will be posted to the conference website shortly. * Registration is now open. To take advantage of early registration rates, see <http://www.highperformancegraphics.org/registration.php> http://www.highperformancegraphics.org/registration.php. * Posters and Hot3D submissions continue to be accepted, with a deadline of Monday, May 7th for both tracks. There are also demonstration opportunities, see below for more information. Introduction We are pleased to announce High-Performance Graphics 2012. High Performance Graphics is the leading international forum for performance-oriented graphics systems research including innovative algorithms, efficient implementations, and hardware architecture. The conference brings together researchers, engineers, and architects to discuss the complex interactions of massively parallel hardware, novel programming models, efficient graphics algorithms, and novel applications. High Performance Graphics was founded in 2009 to synthesize and broaden on two important and well-respected conferences in computer graphics: <http://www.graphicshardware.org/> Graphics Hardware and <http://www.sci.utah.edu/rt08/> Interactive Ray Tracing. Conference Info The conference, which will take place on June 25-27, is co-located with the <http://telecom-paristech.fr/EGSR2012/> Eurographics Symposium on Rendering in Paris, France. HPG 2012 is co-sponsored by Eurographics and ACM SIGGRAPH. The program features three days of paper and industry presentations, with ample time for discussions during breaks, lunches, and the conference banquet. The conference website is located at <http://www.highperformancegraphics.org/> http://www.highperformancegraphics.org/ Posters We invite the submission of posters describing on-going or late-breaking work. In addition to traditional posters, this session will be enhanced to provide opportunities for paper authors to present implementation details or hands-on demonstrations. The deadline for poster submissions is Monday, May 7. Notification of acceptance is Monday, May 14. To submit a poster, please: * Prepare an extended abstract (one page maximum) that summarizes the work using the paper format described above. * Prepare a high-quality version of the final poster. * Send both items (in PDF format) to <mailto:posters@highperformancegraphics.org> posters(a)highperformancegraphics.org Additional information: * Posters will be exhibited in the break areas throughout the conference. For each poster, we will attempt to make space available for interactive demonstrations (if necessary and only upon request). * Poster authors will be responsible for printing the poster, bringing it to the conference, and putting it up. Easels will be provided. For further information please contact: <mailto:posters@highperformancegraphics.org> posters(a)highperformancegraphics.org Hot 3D Systems Track We invite vendors in the graphics industry to present their latest and greatest 3D chips, high-performance software, and system designs. Presentations should be 20 minutes long, technical rather than marketing-oriented, and with a focus on real products. Hot 3D presentations are not considered archival publications for the purposes of future submission to peer-reviewed venues. The deadline for Hot 3D applications is Monday, May 7. For further information please contact: <mailto:hot3d@highperformancegraphics.org> hot3d(a)highperformancegraphics.org Demonstrations Presenters and participants are invited to bring prototypes and products for demonstration at the event.

The venue is the Polydome at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, with a welcome reception at the Rolex Learning Centre and Farewell drinks at the Château de Glérolles. The Symposium on Computer Animation (SCA) is the premiere forum for innovations in the software and technology of computer animation. The 11th annual event unites researchers and practitioners working on all aspects of time-based phenomena. Our focused, intimate gathering, with single track program and emphasis on community interaction, makes SCA the best venue to exchange research results, get inspired, and set up collaborations. Don't miss out! We invite submissions of original, high-quality papers on computer animation, broadly defined as computation dealing with time-varying phenomena. Each submission will be refereed on the basis of technical quality, novelty, significance, and clarity. The SCA 2012 electronic proceedings will be archived in the EG and ACM digital libraries. There will be best paper awards, and honorable mentions to the top 10% of submissions. Top papers will also be invited to have extended versions appear in a TVCG Special Section. NEW THIS YEAR: we are also inviting short paper submissions for quick dissemination of compact and good ideas in a shorter presentation format. Short papers should be 4 to 6 pages, and will be included in the main track of the conference and will also appear in the electronic proceedings and be archived in the EG and ACM digital libraries. Authors of some declined papers with high potential will be invited to submit their work to the combined posters and demos sessions. We invite work on a broad range of topics, including: 2D, 3D, and N-D animation systems animation systems autonomous characters clothing animation and simulation expressive motion / communication facial animation group and crowd behavior intuitive interfaces for creating and editing animations mathematical foundations of animation methods of control and artistic direction of simulations nature in motion (natural phenomena, plants, clouds, ...) new time-based art forms on the computer novel time-varying phenomena perceptual metrics for animation perceptual foundations of animation physical realism / measuring the real world for animation physical simulation planning / learning / optimization for animation real-time and interactive methods 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. As in previous years, the poster and demo session will be 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. The poster and demo session will be integrated with the wine and cheese social event. Note that 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 Eurographics Digital Libraries. Details regarding submission format will be announced closer to the deadline. Important Dates: May 29th, 2012: Deadline for SCA paper submission June 25th, 2012: Notification of conditionally accepted papers June 30th, 2012: Deadline for poster submissions July 12th, 2012: Notification of poster acceptance July 16th, 2012: Camera-ready papers and posters due July 29th-31st, 2012: Symposium All papers will be reviewed carefully by the International Program Committee members.
