The XIIIth International Workshop on the Design, Verification and
Specification of Interactive Systems provides a venue for researchers and
practitioners to present their latest results and developments. Papers are
invited on topics that relate the user interface and software engineering,
including theory, techniques and tools for the design, development and
validation of interactive systems.
Topics of interest include software engineering aspects of user interfaces
and user interface tools and techniques :
* Software architectures
* Development processes

The PBG06 will take place in Boston, MA, July 29-30, 2006, and will be co-located with SIGGRAPH and the International Workshop on Volume Graphics. The best papers of PBG06 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

April 18-21, 2006
Columbia, Maryland, USA
http://www.web3d2006.org
Sponsored by ACM SIGGRAPH
In cooperation with the Web3D Consortium and Eurographics
Eleventh in the series, the 2006 International Web3D Symposium will address a
wide range of 3D technologies on the Internet, ranging from languages, tools
and high performance 3D graphics to human-computer interaction issues and the
latest mobile applications. The annual Web3D Symposium is a major event which
unites researchers, developers, experimenters, and content creators in a
dynamic learning environment. Attendees share and explore methods of using,
enhancing, or creating new 3D Web technology, such as X3D, VRML, MPEG4,
OpenHSF, and Java3D. Authors are invited to submit their work for review by
the international Program Committee. Both research and applications papers are
of interest to Web3D 2006. The papers must be innovative and contribute to the
advancement of 3D technologies on the Web. Topics of interest include but are
not limited to:
* 3D graphics for wireless PDAs and cellular phones.
* Animated humanoids and complex reactive characters.
* Computer Aided Design (CAD) technology and methods for lossless
cross-application data exchange.
* Geometry/object behaviors in Web3D settings.
* High-performance 3D graphics for distributed environments and tele-operation
systems.
* Innovative user-interface paradigms for navigating real-time 3D graphics
environments and Web3D worlds.
* Interaction methods for Web-based 3D graphics systems.
* Methods for designing, representing, interacting with, and visualizing
complex geometry, structure and behaviors.
* Multimodal user interaction in Web3D worlds.
* Web3D content for medical education, training and simulation.
* Innovative applications using 3D graphics on the Web and on mobile devices.
* Integration and interoperation with other XML-based Web standards.
Authors are invited to submit full papers of up to 9 pages (including figures
and references) in PDF format via the Symposium Web Page. Papers must be
formatted using the document templates for conferences sponsored by ACM
SIGGRAPH. Accepted papers will appear in the Symposium Proceedings, published
by ACM Press.
