**** EUROGRAPHICS 2013 Tutorials ****
34th Annual Conference of the European Association for Computer Graphics
May 6th to 10th, 2013
Girona, Spain
http://eg2013.udg.edu
Eurographics 2013, the 34th Annual Conference of the European Association
for Computer Graphics, will take place from May 6 to May 10 in Girona,
Spain. It will be organized by
ViRVIG and University of Girona. Eurographics 2013 will provide a unique
platform for the computer graphics community to showcase latest techniques
and educational work, and to explore new trends and ideas.
The Eurographics 2013 Tutorials Committee invites you to propose tutorials
teaching the technical background of a given subject, or demonstrating its
potential 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. In a proposal for a tutorial you should consider that
tutorial attendees come from diverse backgrounds, ranging from research and
development to education and application.
We are soliciting half-day and full-day tutorial proposals at the beginning,
intermediate, or advanced level in all areas pertinent to Computer Graphics.
Half-day tutorials are about two and a half hours, plus a coffee break in
the middle. Full-day tutorials are twice that long, plus two coffee breaks
and a longer lunch break. Tutorial proposals are about 4-5 pages in length,
clearly indicating the audience that is addressed as well as the syllabus of
instruction. They will be reviewed by the tutorial chairs, supported by
external reviewers. The final selection will be based on quality of the
submission, qualification of the presenters, relevance to the conference
topics, and balance of topics.
Each accepted half day tutorial will be granted a free conference
registration for one speaker, while each full-day tutorial will be granted a
maximum of two free conference registrations. Free tutorial registrations
will be granted for all tutorial speakers.
For any question concerning tutorial submissions please contact any of the
tutorial co-chairs at tutorialschairs(a)eg2013.udg.edu.
Submission Details
==================
Tutorial proposals (in PDF) should be submitted via email to the tutorial
co-chairs. Full proposals (4-5 pages) should be submitted by October 31,
23:59 GMT. The full proposal should contain the following information:
Presenter(s) details:
* Name(s)
* Institution(s)
* email address(es)
* URL(s)
Tutorial details:
* Title of Tutorial
* Keywords
* Half or full day tutorial (either 2x90 minutes or 4x90 minutes)
* A detailed outline of the tutorial.
* A statement on the necessary background and potential target audience for
the tutorial.
* A brief resume of the presenter(s) indicating their background in the area
the tutorial addresses.
* If a (similar) tutorial was previously held, indicate the location (i.e.,
which conference), date, and the number of attendees. Please provide
information highlighting changes, improvements and/or why the tutorial
should be held again in this form.
Course Notes
==================
Sample course notes, although not required in the submission, are highly
encouraged to accompany the tutorial proposals. Notes may include original
text, formatted according to the Eurographics publication guidelines,
reprints of earlier papers (subject to copyright approval), slides and any
other material the authors consider useful. All course notes of accepted
tutorials will be distributed to conference participants both in printed and
DVD formats. The acceptance of tutorial proposals is contingent upon the
final submission of complete course notes.
