COMPUTER GRAPHICS FORUM -- COVER COMPETITION 2007
---------------------------------------------------
COMPUTER GRAPHICS FORUM is the journal of Eurographics, the European
Association for Computer Graphics. Each year we have the opportunity to
change the picture appearing on the cover of the journal. This is your
opportunity to show the world what you can do, a competition for the
photograph for the 2007 volume.
The first prize winner gets 200 Euro, but the biggest prize is of course
the fact that your picture will appear on all the 2007 issues, including
the conference issue!
The winner will be publicly announced at the closing session of the
Eurographics 2006 conference in Vienna (Austria).
IT IS SUFFICIENT TO SEND IN IMAGES VIA EMAIL ATTACHMENTS TO
Federico Ponchio <ponchio(a)dm.unipi.it>
Deadline: AUGUST 20th, 2006
Electronic submissions may be in all image formats. For production on
the cover of "Forum", we will be asking the winning submitter to provide
a CMYK-separated eps file, saved at 300 dpi, sized at 152 mm x 128 mm.
We would also appreciate a GIF or JPEG image with RGB colour for use on
the website.
To give you an idea what we are looking for and further instructions,
visit the CGF Cover Contest web page:

CALL FOR PAPERS Paper Due: 24th May 2006
2006 International Conference on CYBERWORLDS
November 28-30, 2006, Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland Organized by EPFL VRlab in cooperation with EUROGRAPHICS, ACM SIGGRAPH, ACM SIGWEB, CUSO, and INTUITION EU Network of Excellence
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 modelling, 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 as well as methods and tools used for creating such worlds.
CONFERENCE TOPICS
The conference topics include but are not limited to the following areas.
- Philosophy, Evolution, and Ethics of Cyberworlds
- Cyberworlds and their impact on the real worlds
- Cyberethics and Cyberlaws
- Cybersecurity
- Visual Cyberworlds
- Human animation 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
- Bioinformatics for Cyberlife and medicine
- Healthcare in Cyberworlds
- Cyberworlds for bioengineering
- Cyberinformation systems
- E-business in Cyberworlds
- Cyberworlds for education
- Collaborative work using Cyberworlds
- Cyberworlds for manufacturing
- Cyber fairs and Cyber museums
- Multi-user web games
CW2006 will provide an opportunity for scientists, engineers, and researchers from around the world to share the latest research, ideas, and developments in these fields.
The conference will consist of formal paper sessions and hands-on demonstrations where research groups and vendors will show the state-of-the-art in the field.
IMPORTANT DATES
Paper Due: 24th May 2006
Notice of Acceptance: 1st July 2006
Camera Ready Due: 28th July 2006

Second Eurographics Workshop on Natural Phenomena
Vienna, Austria, September 5, 2006
http://www.cg.tuwien.ac.at/events/EGWNP06/
>>> Paper submission deadline extended to May 25, 2006 <<<
After several requests by authors, the deadline for submitting
papers to the EG Workshop on Natural Phenomena has been
changed to May 25, 2006.
The call for papers and the web site is enclosed in this mail.
Best regards,
Program Co-Chairs:
Norishige Chiba
Eric Galin
Call for papers
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-concious 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
- Modeling fire and smoke
- Aging and weathering
- Terrain modeling

Venue
-----
Santiago de Compostela is mainly a monumental town, a stony miracle which
has been shaped around the Apostle St James's sepulchre along the
centuries, and which has resulted in one of the most splendid and harmonic
architectural ensembles in the world. Considered to be one of the three
spiritual capitals of Christendom together with Rome and Jerusalem, from
the Middle Ages it became the goal of religious pilgrimages, a phenomenon
that would give birth to the pilgrims' Road to Santiago, the real spine of
the art and the thought from which, as Goethe said, the idea of Europe
would be born.
The conference venue will be the Universidad de Santiago de Compostela, at
the Escola Técnica Superior de Enxeñería (Rúa Lope Gómez de Marzoa,
15782-Santiago de Compostela)
Short Paper Submission
-----------------------
Submissions are invited as short paper of 2 to 4 pages (A4 paper), and will
be presented as posters. The papers must be written in English. The program committee,
composed of internationally renowned experts, will review the submissions.
