2010 International Conference on Cyberworlds 20-22 October 2010, Singapore http://www3.ntu.edu.sg/SCE/cw2010 Organized by the School of Computer Engineering, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. In cooperation with Eurographics Association and Interactive Digital Media R&D Program Office, Media Development Authority of Singapore The application for IEEE Computer Society technical co-sponsorship has been submitted. Cyberworlds are information worlds or communities created on cyberspace by collaborating participants either intentionally or spontaneously. As information worlds, they accumulate information regardless whether or not anyone is in, and they can be with or without 2D or 3D visual graphics appearance. The examples of such cyberworlds are communities created in different social networking services, 3D shared virtual environments, and multiplayer online games. Cyberworlds are closely related to the real world and have a serious impact on it. Cyberworlds have been created and applied in such areas as e-business, e-commerce, e-manufacturing, e-learning, e-medicine, and cultural heritage, etc. Cyberworlds augment and sometimes replace the real life and become a significant component of real economy. The international conferences on Cyberworlds have being organized annually since 2002 with the proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society and special issues published in The Visual Computer and other research journals. 10th in the series, CW2010 will consist of paper sessions, tutorials, industrial seminars, exhibitions and hands-on demonstrations where researchers, artists, and vendors will show the state-of-the-art in the field.

Eurographics 2010 Area Papers

by Stefanie Behnke

Eurographics 2010 Area Papers In 2010, Eurographics will have a special focus on Mobile Visual Computing and Dome Displays (http://www.eurographics2010.se/calls/area_papers/) which will have paper sessions and other events within the conference devoted to them. With Mobile Visual Computing we understand any aspects of computing images for display on handheld devices, including software or hardware techniques from graphics, vision and image processing, user interfaces and interaction. Domed displays, with real-time computing, are becoming a much more widely used approach to immersive computer graphics. The number of such sites is increasingly rapidly and the technology and applications must advance to meet the new challenges and opportunities which these systems provide. A new domed display environment will be commissioned in Norrköping immediately prior to the Eurographics conference, just minutes away from the conference centre. It is intended that the dome will be used to host the dome areas events and papers, and will provide an excellent environment for authors and exhibitors to demonstrate new ideas for domed environments. List of Topics Suggested topics in the two areas are listed below but submissions are not limited to just these topics, simply to the defined areas. Mobile Visual Computing: a.. Mobile graphics algorithms b.. Mobile graphics applications c.. Mobile graphics hardware d.. Graphical user interfaces for mobile devices e.. Visualization on handheld devices f.. Handheld displays g.. Mobile augmented reality h.. Mobile computational photography i.. User studies, human factors, evaluation of interaction techniques Domed Displays: a.. Projection systems and technologies b.. Audio environment technologies and methods c.. Interaction systems for small and large audiences d.. Software development platforms e.. Mixed media dome shows f.. Combining live performance in dome environments g.. Dome special effects h.. Applications: practical, education and entertainment Accepted papers will be presented at Eurographics 2010 as an oral presentation, and will be published in the Areas Papers proceedings and included in the conference digital media. Authors are invited to submit both normal research papers, as well as contributions that might be difficult to position as a regular or a short paper because they are too much oriented towards the application or address emergent, yet preliminary ideas on the future of Mobile Visual Computing and Dome Displays. The submission deadline for areas papers is December 11, 2009. For any question concerning areas papers submissions please contact the areas programme co-chairs: areas(a)eurographics2010.se Submission Details Submitted areas papers should be formatted according to the Eurographics Areas publication style. For submission purposes, you should submit a paper of up to 8 pages in length, or four pages for a short paper, according to the submission guidelines. Anonymous submissions will be made electronically through the Eurographics online submission system. Please indicate the area to which your work is submitted. Areas Co-Chairs Matt Cooper, Linköping University, SE Kari Pulli, Nokia Research Center, US Committee Members Mobile Visual Computing Tomi Aarnio, Nokia Research Center, Finland Emmanuel Agu, Worcester Polytechnic Institute, USA Tolga Capin, Bilkent University, Turkey Luca Chittaro, Universita di Udine, Italy Thomas Ertl, Universität Stuttgart, Germany Hendrik Lensch, Universität Ulm, Germany Manuel Menezes de Oliveira Neto, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil Antti Nurminen, Helsinki University of Technology, Finland Vidya Setlur, Nokia Research Center, USA Jacob Ström, Ericsson Research, Sweden Daniel Wagner, Technische Universität Graz, Austria Jeong-Ho Woo, KAIST, Korea Woontack Woo, Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology, Korea Hoi-Jun Yoo, KAIST, Korea Domed Displays TBD

We expect to attract a number of attendees with biological and medical backgrounds, also from the surrounding academic medical centers. This will pose a unique opportunity to showcase the latest ideas from engineering and science, to get feedback from biological and medical practitioners, and to explore new possibilities for cooperative research. VCBM solicits the submission of original application-oriented research papers that advance the fusion of visualization and image analysis with imaging-based medicine and biological science. All papers should focus on a well-defined biological or medical context, and should demonstrate a significant innovation or improvement in visual computing that addresses ongoing problems in that context. Suggested topics for papers include, but are not limited to: - Applications in cardiovascular medicine, neurosurgery, radiology, and other medical disciplines - Applications on Gene Expression Data and other system biology topics - Visualization methods for neurobiology, plant biology and developmental biology - Interactive segmentation and registration - Computer-aided diagnosis and detection - Intervention and therapy planning (eg. pre-operative surgical or radiation therapy planning) - Intra-operative guidance for surgery - Visualization and Simulation for Surgical Training - Coupled simulation and visualization - Multi-field medical visualization and processing (multi-modality, structural + functional) - Perception-based studies for medical visual computing - Reconstruction from image data, such as microscopic or radiological data - Creation and visualization of biological/medical atlases Submission Information ---------------------- Paper submission is electronic only. Full details, including formatting instructions and the submission procedure are provided through the workshop webpage at http://vcbm.org/2010/submission-info/. Papers should be formatted according to the EG workshop publication guidelines (http://www.eg.org/publications/guidelines). You are strongly recommended to use the respective EG LaTeX style files available. Papers should not exceed 8 pages in length. Accepted papers will be presented at the workshop and will appear in the EG-published conference proceedings. A small number of excellent papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their paper for the VCBM 2010 Special Issue of Elsevier's Journal Computers and Graphics. Supplementary material (e.g. videos) can also be provided, and will be considered when the paper is reviewed; see the submission site for full details. Posters We invite you to contribute to the first VCBM Poster session. Poster abstract submissions are due April 19, 2010. For accepted posters there will be a session where all presenters will concurrently discuss their work with VCBM attendees and a poster compendium that will contain the abstracts. The poster session is a venue for several kinds of work. We welcome preliminary findings that are not mature enough for a full paper, interesting work with a contribution smaller than a typical research paper (student projects often fall into this category), or late-breaking research where you would benefit from feedback from the community before writing it up as a full paper. The suggested topics are the same as for the papers. More information can be found at the workshop website. Conference Location ------------------- VCBM 2010 will be held in Leipzig, Germany. Leipzig hosts the 2nd oldest university in Germany, which is currently celebrating its 600 anniversary. Next to cultural landmarks (former home of Johann-Sebastian Bach and Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, the Gewandhaus Orchestra, the New Leipzig School of painting, etc.), it provides a rich research environment for medicine, biology, bioinformatics, and visual computing. It is conveniently located in the heart of Europe and it is a major hub of the German Railway (with direct train connections from Frankfurt Airport). Nearby airports include the Airport Leipzig/Halle and the airports of Berlin.
