CFP: 3rd Eurographics Workshop on Natural Phenomena 2007

by Stefanie Behnke

Please forward this info to interested colleagues, and please excuse multiple postings. Thank you! ************************************************************** 3rd Eurographics Workshop on Natural Phenomena 2007 CALL FOR PAPERS Workshop website: http://www.cgg.cvut.cz/egwnp07 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Submission DEADLINE: May 18, 2007 Venue: September 4, 2007, Prague, Czech Republic ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ************************************************************** AIMS AND SCOPE Synthesizing realistic natural scenes is a challenging and important problem in computer graphics. The challenge stems not only from the complexity and diversity of objects and natural phenomena interacting together, but also from the huge amount of small details that should be modeled to obtain realistic models and physically plausible simulations. Therefore, there is still a need for interactive modeling and simulation techniques capable for handling complex synthetic sceneries. The purpose of this workshop is to explore novel techniques for modeling, animating, simulating and rendering complex natural phenomena. The workshop will build on work done in recent years including simulating aging and weathering of synthetic objects, plant modeling, ecosystem simulation, gaseous phenomena and liquid flows. It will focus on non-conscious or inanimate nature like rock, trees, oceans, wind, meadows (animals and humans as part of nature should be excluded). Work in this area, promising as it is, is still far from complete. Authors are invited to submit technical papers in these or related areas. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Plant structure modeling * Ecosystem simulation * Gaseous phenomena (clouds, fog, ...) * Simulating liquid flows and rain * Modeling fire and smoke * Aging and weathering * Terrain modeling WORKSHOP FORMAT The workshop will take place just before the Eurographics 2007 Conference (September 4, Prague, Czech Republic) to encourage a broad range of participants. As such, it will provide a very interesting opportunity for researchers that want to attend or present communications at both events. T he workshop will be held in one day, including paper presentation and invited sessions. Participation is open to everyone, not requiring submission of a paper. IMPORTANT DATES Submission deadline: May 18th, 2007 Notification of acceptance: June 18th, 2007 Camera-ready papers deadline: July 8th, 2007 Workshop (one full day): September 4, 2007 ORGANISING COMMITTEE Workshop Chairs * Eric Galin (FR) * Jaroslav Sloup (CZ) Program Chairs * David Ebert (US) * Stéphane Mérillou (FR) ************************************************************** For more information, please contact eric.galin(a)liris.cnrs.fr. **************************************************************

2nd Call for Papers for Computational Aesthetics 2007 (CAe2007)

by Stefanie Behnke

Call for Papers for Computational Aesthetics 2007 (CAe 2007), held on June 20-22, 2007 in Banff, Alberta, Canada http://innovis.cpsc.ucalgary.ca/cae2007/ Our ability to convey complex meaning and emotion by the clever arrangement of symbols and signs is one of the most celebrated aspects of our human heritage. If Aesthetics is defined as the interaction between symbol and observer within a social context, then Computational Aesthetics is the empirically based field that examines applications of Aesthetics. Computational Aesthetics integrates aspects of computer science, psychology, and the visual arts, with particular focus on the mathematical and information theoretic aspects of symbol processing by humans and computers. By combining insights from these fields, Computational Aesthetics not only provides tools for the graphics and visualization communities to increase the value of displayed imagery and to avoid classical artifacts, but also furthers our understanding of perception and meaning. Computer based tools, resulting from Computational Aesthetics research, may also be used to enhance the expressive power of the fine and applied arts and to expand the role of aesthetic design as a differentiating factor in product development and retail sales. We are pleased to announce the third workshop on Computational Aesthetics, which will take place in Banff, Alberta, Canada on June 20-22, 2007. It is the third event on this topic following a Workshop in 2005 in Girona, Spain, and a Dagstuhl seminar in Germany in 2006. This conference will bring together individuals with technical backgrounds who are developing computer based tools to solve aesthetic problems and people with artistic and design backgrounds who use these new tools in their work. Invited talks will be given by leading technical and artistic/design figures to help participants to better understand what computer technology is capable of delivering and to fully appreciate what is involved in the artistic and design process. Refereed papers will also be presented to provide a snapshot of the latest technical breakthroughs and the most recent artistic or design achievements in applying computer based techniques to solve aesthetic problems. The overriding goal of the conference will be to facilitate a dialogue between the scientists and engineers who are creating these new tools and the artists and designers who are the end users. Submissions are invited across the broad range of areas covered by Computational Aesthetics. Specific examples include, but are not limited to: * Artistic Image Transformation Techniques (colors, edges, patterns, dithering) * Image Analogies, Style Transfer Methods * Sketching, Simplification techniques (artistic, cognitive) * Composition, Visual Balance, Layout * Non-Photorealistic Rendering * Image Style Analysis (Paintings, Photographs, others) * Empirically based Metrics of Aesthetical Attributes * Applied Visual Perception (Color Appearance, Spatial Vision, and other aspects) Submitted papers should be original, unpublished work of up to 8 pages. The manuscripts must be written in English. For more information including paper formatting and submission guidelines see the website at http://innovis.cpsc.ucalgary.ca/cae2007/ Please note that this call for technical contributions is complemented by a call for participation by experts in the visual arts, for details see the website. Important dates: Abstract submission deadline: March 5, 2007 Submission deadline: March 12, 2007 Acceptance notification: May 1, 2007 Camera-ready deadline: May 18, 2007 Conference: June 20-22, 2007 Conference Chairs: Sheelagh Carpendale, University of Calgary, Canada Brian Wyvill, University of Calgary, Canada Program Chairs: Douglas W.

CfP: Smart Graphics 2007

by Andreas Butz

SG07: 7th International Symposium on SMART GRAPHICS http://www.smartgraphics.org/ June 25-27 2007 Kyoto, Japan Submission deadline: Feb 16, 2007 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; and (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 brings together people from the fields of Cognitive Science, Computer Graphics, Artificial Intelligence and Graphics Design to build this new and emerging area of study. A partnering event, for which we encourage participation is the 7th Creativity and Cognition Conference (CC2007). Another partner-event is the Visual Computing / Graphics & CAD symposium, which takes place in Osaka, Japan (Jun 23-24). SG07 welcomes submissions from computer graphics, HCI & AI researchers and practitioners, cognitive scientists, artists and graphic designers interested in a theroetically motivated interdisciplinary approach to the design of interactive visual, auditory, and haptic displays. It is planned to publish the proceedings in the Springer LNCS series, as in the previous years (formal approval pending).

by Stefanie Behnke

Call for Papers GRAPHICS HARDWARE 2007 Co-Sponsored by ACM SIGGRAPH and Eurographics 4-5 August 2007, San Diego, California Paper deadline: Monday, 9 April 2007 Please see the CFP below for full details. http://www.graphicshardware.org/ http://www.graphicshardware.org/cfp2007.txt ==== Introduction Graphics Hardware is a highly visible, established international forum for exchanging experience and knowledge related to computer graphics hardware. The event, held annually since 1986, offers a unique perspective on graphics hardware by combining discussions and constructive critique of innovative concepts as well as product-level designs. It is an inclusive forum for the entire graphics hardware community and brings together researchers, engineers, and architects. The program features two days of paper and industry presentations, with ample time for discussion during breaks, lunches, and the workshop banquet. This year's event will be held in San Diego, California, jointly with Siggraph. Our website is located at http://www.graphicshardware.org/. Schedule Monday, April 9 Deadline for paper submissions (11:59 pm Pacific Daylight Time) Thursday, May 10 Notification of acceptance Friday, May 18 Camera-ready papers due Saturday-Sunday, August 4-5 Conference Papers Track We invite high-quality, original papers on all aspects of computer graphics hardware describing either proven and tested solutions or novel ideas and concepts. Suggested topics include, but are not limited to: * Graphics accelerator architectures * Performance measurement, modelling, and optimization * Exploitation of new memory technologies for 3D graphics * Graphics for mobile devices * Integrated graphics chipsets * Hardware support for image-based rendering * Volume rendering architectures * Hardware support of new surface representations * Multi-processor architectures for graphics * Load balancing in graphics systems * Space, screen, and model partitioning * Software-hardware interfaces * Hardware accelerated rendering * Programmable graphics processors * Shading language implementation * Vertex, geometry, and pixel programming techniques * GPU-related compression/decompression techniques * Programming techniques for data-parallel problems * Hardware support for video processing * Novel display technologies * General Purpose GPU papers which meet all of: - Graphics hardware is essential to the method - New and non-obvious algorithmic changes are required to run on graphics hardware - The algorithm is likely to influence GPU designs or have lasting value as GPUs change Paper length: There is no fixed maximum length for a paper. However, the magnitude of the contribution must be proportional to the length of the paper, and papers longer than eight typeset pages in the final Eurographics format must make a very significant contribution to get accepted. Papers of four or fewer pages will be held to a less strict standard of citation and description of related work (comparison to the strongest alternative techniques is still important, but an exhaustive review is not necessary). All accepted papers are treated equally, i.e., printed in the proceedings and presented at the conference. Submission info: Authors are invited to upload papers electronically in Adobe PDF format by visiting http://www.graphicshardware.org/submissions.html. Submissions should follow the formatting guidelines on http://www.eg.org/publications/guidelines/. We encourage anonymous submissions (in which the paper contains no information identifying the authors) whenever possible. Video sequences in QuickTime, MPEG or AVI format may be submitted using the electronic submission system. Papers Chairs: Timo Aila (NVIDIA) Mark Segal (AMD) Papers Committee: Kurt Akeley (Microsoft Research) Tomas Akenine-Moeller (Lund University) Remi Arnaud (Sony Computer Entertainment) Avi Bleiweiss (AMD) Frank Crow (NVIDIA) Mike Doggett (AMD) Gordon Elder (AMD) Thomas Ertl (University of Stuttgart) Naga Govindaraju (Microsoft) Stefan Guthe (NVIDIA) Mark Harris (NVIDIA) John Hart (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign) Justin Hensley (AMD) Greg Humphreys (University of Virginia) Bill Mark (UT Austin) Jason Mitchell (Valve Software) Steve Molnar (NVIDIA) John Montrym (NVIDIA) Henry Moreton (NVIDIA) Petri Nordlund (AMD) Marc Olano (University of Maryland, Baltimore County) Timour Paltashev (S3 Graphics) Matt Pharr (Neoptica) Tim Purcell (NVIDIA) Bengt-Olaf Schneider (NVIDIA) Peter-Pike Sloan (Microsoft) Marc Stamminger (University of Erlangen) Robert Strzodka (Stanford) Michael Wimmer (TU Wien) Craig Wittrenbrink (NVIDIA) Questions? Please contact papers2007(a)graphicshardware.org. ==== To facilitate sending announcements to those interested in Graphics Hardware, we have moved our mailing list onto a listserv. We hope this will be more convenient for attendees, organizers, and all others who are interested in graphics hardware alike. We promise this will be an low-volume mailing list, limited to the call for papers, the announcement of the GH program, and the wrapup email.
