EUROGRAPHICS 2008

by Stefanie Behnke

EUROGRAPHICS 2008 14-18 April 2008 The conference is now approaching rapidly, so if you have not done so already, please register for the conference NOW and make your travel plans. Remember, the conference is in April this year, not September! The early bird registration deadline has been extended to *next Wednesday, March 5th*. When planning your travel, it might help you to know that there are regular flights from Athens to Heraklion, both Olympic Airlines and Aegean Airlines have regular flights on this route. It may be better to find a cheap round-trip to Athens, and look up the Athens-Heraklion trip separately, since this appears to give better prices in many cases. Low cost airlines also operate from some European destinations, e.g. EasyJet from London Gatwick, and some charter companies already have flights to Heraklion (e.g., Air Mediterranee from Paris CDG). The new airport in Athens incorporates domestic and international flights in the one building. Please help us to spread the word about EG 2008. A great deal of effort is going into organising the conference, and we have a very strong and exciting technical programme. This is the first time that the conference has been held in the spring-time, the community was very much in favour of the change of time slot, so please help to make this event a success by coming to Crete! We look forward to welcoming you there. Panos Trahanias Nigel John David Duce Conference co-Chairs Eurographics Chairman

International Conference on Cyberworlds (CW 2008): Call for Papers

by Stefanie Behnke

**************************************************************************** We apologize if you received multiple copies of this Call for Papers. Please feel free to distribute it to those who might be interested. **************************************************************************** Call for Papers International Conference on Cyberworlds (CW 2008) URL: http://www.china-vr.com/cw08/index.htm Hangzhou, China September 22-24, 2008 The conference Proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press. Special issues in SCI journal(s) are being planned. Cyberworlds are information worlds being formed on Internet either intentionally or spontaneously, with or without design. As information worlds, they are either virtual or real, and can be both. In terms of information modeling, the theoretical ground for the Cyberworlds is far above the level of integrating spatial database models and temporal database models. This conference will deal with large distributed information worlds on Internet and methods/tools used for creating such worlds. This year, Cyberworlds 2008 (CW2008) will be held in Hangzhou, China. Hangzhou has long been a famous tourist attraction. The widely expressed Chinese proverb, "in heaven there is paradise and on earth there are Hangzhou and Suzhou" combined with the words of Marco Polo who described this place as, "the most beautiful and magnificent city in the world" have helped to make Hangzhou one of the biggest tourist attractions in the entire country. Conference Topics . Philosophy, evolution, and ethics of Cyberworlds . Cyberworlds and their impact on the real worlds . Telemedicine, healthcare in Cyberworlds . Mobile computing, mobile graphics, mobile game . E-learning, web-based learning and edutainment . Intelligent agents in Cyberworlds . Digital watermarking, Internet security, information hiding . Distributed virtual environments . Cyber fairs and digital museums . Game engine, game algorithm, and multi-user web games . VR/AR/MR for Industrial design, digital heritage .

CFP Smartgraphics 2008

by Stefanie Behnke

SG08: 8th International Symposium on SMART GRAPHICS http://www.smartgraphics.org/ Aug 27-29 2008 Rennes, France submission deadline Apr 7th, 2008 Graphics become Smart Graphics when their design and implementation are grounded in an understanding of human abilities, activities, and motivations from design experience and the broad spectrum of cognitive and social sciences. When knowledge from these diverse fields is combined with new methods, tools and techniques in AI, HCI and computer graphics, environments are created that (1) engage the user and are esthetically satisfying; (2) participate in human cognition as external or distributed representations; (3) are sensitive to the real-time demands of the interaction in the context of the available informational and computational resources; (4) adapt the form of the output according to a wider set of constraints such as an individual's perceptual, attentive, and motor abilities and the nature of the presentation media and available interaction devices. The International Symposium on Smart Graphics aims at gathering people from the fields of Cognitive Science, Computer Graphics, Artificial Intelligence and Graphics Design to share experiences and experiments in this new and emerging area of study. *** Come and Join the Smart Graphics Experience *** Smart Graphics 2008 welcomes submissions from researchers and practitioners, as well as artists and graphic designers interested in an interdisciplinary approach to the design of smart interactive visual, auditory, and haptic displays. Submission categories are divided into: * Full papers: these will encompass comprehensive descriptions of original work within the scope of the symposium (limited to 12 pages in Springer LNCS format). * Posters: tentative or preliminary results of research or design work with emphasis on the interdisciplinary evaluation of the ideas (limited to 4 pages in Springer LNCS format). Poster papers will be included in the proceedings. * System demonstrations: short descriptions of research or design work that the authors intend to show and discuss in a demo session at the symposium (limited to 2 pages in Springer LNCS format). System demonstration papers will be included in the proceedings. Smartgraphics specially encourages young researchers to submit their ideas and results. The best full paper and best poster, which first authors are students, will receive a 500 euros prize each donated by the Metivier Foundation. As in previous conferences, proceedings will be published in the Springer Lecture Note in Computer Science (LNCS) series. Topics of interest include (but are not restricted to): * information visualization * visual analytics * graphical abstraction * multimodal information presentation * non-desktop interfaces * user interaction * sketch-based interfaces * interaction science * scene perception * cognitive sciences * user studies * computer graphics * artificial intelligence * virtual and mixed reality * graphics design This year, we propose a specific emphasis on interaction in virtual reality as well as on constraint techniques in user interfaces.
