Vienna, 3-4 September SBM06: Invitation to Participate

by Joaquim Jorge

Eurographics Workshop on Sketch-based Interfaces and Modeling 2006 Vienna, Austria, 3-4 September 2006 http://www.eg.org/sbm Registration: https://www.eg.org/egshop/jsf/user/buyticket.jsp The 2006 Eurographics Workshop on Sketch-based Interfaces and Modeling, held in conjunction with the 2006 Eurographics Conference, brings together an international community of researchers working to advance the state of the art in sketch-based interfaces and their applications. The workshop is intended to provide an opportunity for these researchers to share lessons learned, present new results, and discuss open issues. The workshop also includes two invited presentations. In the first of these, Eric Saund of the Palo Alto Research Center presents one possible view of a "killer application" for pen-based interfaces - games. In the second, Marc Alexa from the Technical University of Berlin presents exciting new work in sketch-based 3D surface design.
