Call for Papers for CYBERWORLDS 2007
October 24-27, 2007 - Leibnizhaus Hannover, Germany
Conference Web Page: http://www.gdv.uni-hannover.de/hcw07
Cyberworlds are information worlds being formed on the 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
Cyberworlds is far above the level of integrating spatial and temporal
database models. This conference will deal with large distributed
information worlds on the Internet as well as methods and tools used
for creating such worlds.
A new feature of the conference this year will be topics dealing with
the relation between Cyberworlds and Computational Engineering (CE).
This means, we encourage submissions showing how contributions from
CE will help improving the physical accuracy of Cyberworlds and
Virtual Reality (VR). Vice versa, we also ask for submissions showing
how concepts from Cyberworlds (and VR) help to improve environments
and systems used for CE applications, e.g. medical science.
The conference proceedings will be printed by IEEE. The best papers
will be published in a special issue of "The Visual Computer".
Conference Topics
- Philosophy, evolution, and ethics of Cyberworlds
- Cyberworlds and their impact on the real world
- Cyber ethics and cyber laws
- Cyber security
- Visual Cyberworlds
- Virtual humans in Cyberworlds
- Virtual reality in Cyberworlds
- Computer vision and augmented reality for Cyberworlds
- Intelligent agents in Cyberworlds
- Communication in Cyberworlds
- Distributed virtual environments
- Shared virtual worlds
- Data mining and warehousing in Cyberworlds
- Virtual production engineering in Cyberworlds
- Cyber engineering - engineering methods enhancing VR worlds and
vice versa
- Bioinformatics for cyber life and medicine
- Health care in Cyberworlds
- Cyber medicine - medical visualization in combination with VR
- Cyberworlds and visualization for bioengineering
- Cyber information systems
- E-business in Cyberworlds
- Cyberworlds for education
- Collaborative work using Cyberworlds
- Cyber fairs and cyber museums

CW 2007 will provide an opportunity for scientists and engineers from
around the world to share the latest research, ideas, and developments
in these fields. The conference will consist of full and short paper
sessions as well as hands-on demonstrations, where research groups,
artists, and vendors will show the state-of-the-art in the field.

WORKSHOP ON
DYNAMIC 3D IMAGING
IN CONJUNCTION WITH
Symp. of the German Association for Pattern Recognition, DAGM
September 11th, 2007, Heidelberg
GENERAL INFORMATION
http://www.multi-sensorics.de/dyn3d
IMPORTANT DATES
Submission of full papers: May 14th, 2007
Notification of acceptance: July 30th, 2007
Final versions due: August 10th, 2007
Workshop: September 11th, 2007
SCOPE
3D imaging sensors have been investigated for several decades. In recent
years, improvements on classical approaches like stereo vision on the one
hand, and novel techniques like ZCam or Photonic Mixing Device (PMD) on the
other hand have emerged, leading to 3D vision systems with radically
improved
characteristics. Presently, these techniques make full-range 3D data
available
at interactive frame rates, and thus open the path towards a much broader
application of 3D vision systems.
The workshop focuses on sensor systems, data processing approaches and
systems
incorporating interactive, full-range 3D sensors in specific application
areas.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Development of full-range 3D sensors or sensor systems, including
- active and passive 3D imaging systems
- 3D sensors operating at optical, near-infrared, terahertz and
microwave wavelengths
- sensor simulation
* Multi sensor fusion incorporating full-range 3D sensors
* Data processing for dynamic full-range 3D-data, including
- sensor based image synthesis
- calibration techniques
- 3D object recognition
- 3D optical flow
* Applications using interactive, full-range 3D sensors, e.g. in
areas like
- autonomous robotics
- medicine
- industrial automation
Results of practical significance with an adequate inclusion of interactive
3D
vision sensors will be considered. The content of submitted papers has to be
novel.

3rd Eurographics Workshop on Natural Phenomena 2007
2nd 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. The workshop will be
held in one day, including paper presentation and invited
sessions. Participation is open to everyone, not requiring
submission of a paper.
Post-workshop proceedings will be available on-line through
the Eurographics Digital Library and in paper book form in the
Eurographics Book Series.

Point-Based Graphics 2007 - Call for Papers
Co-sponsored by Eurographics and the
IEEE-CS Visualization and Graphics Technical Committee (VGTC)
http://www.point-graphics.org
The drive for increasingly complex 3D geometric models, especially those
scanned from the real-world, has brought about a growing interest in methods
that build on point primitives. Following the highly successful 2004, 2005,
and 2006 Symposia on Point-Based Graphics, the 4th symposium of its series,
PBG07, aims to further demonstrate the applicability of point-based methods
in modeling, rendering, and simulation, and in a wide range of application
domains. The PBG07 will take place in Prague, Czech Republic, September 2-3,
2007, and will be co-located with Eurographics and the International
Workshop on Volume Graphics. The best papers of PBG07 will additionally be
published in a special issue of Computers & Graphics. We invite your
original contributions in areas including, but not limited to, the
following:
- Data acquisition and surface reconstruction
- Geometric modeling using point primitives
- Sampling, approximation, and interpolation
- Rendering algorithms for point primitives
- Geometry processing of point models
- Topological properties of point clouds
- Hardware architectures for point primitives
- Animation and morphing of point-sampled models
- Hybrid representations and algorithms
- Use of point-based methods in real-world applications
- Transmission and compression of point-sampled geometry
