CALL FOR PAPERS
*****************************************************************
Authors are invited to submit original papers reporting research
contributions, practice and experience, or novel applications.
Papers are sought in all areas of computer graphics: rendering,
modeling, animation, interactive techniques, and other relevant
topic areas. If in doubt about the suitability of your topic,
please contact the papers co-chairs at eg2005-papers(a)cs.tcd.ie.
Paper length should be appropriate to content, and formatted
according to the EG publication guidelines. For double-blind
reviewing, the anonymous submission version should be used.
Accepted papers will be presented orally at the conference and
appear in the proceedings. The proceedings will be published in
the Eurographics journal, Computer Graphics Forum, volume 24,
issue 3, in print and online, and will be distributed in both
printed and electronic formats to all conference delegates.
Anonymous submissions will be made electronically - further
details will appear closer to the deadline online.
PRIZES - An international jury will select the three best papers
accepted for and presented at the conference and the best student
papers. The best of the three will receive the traditional Günter
Enderle Award, including a cash prize of EUR 1000 sponsored by
Eurographics. Two further papers will each receive EUR 750,
sponsored by Mitsubishi Electric Research Labs. An award of EUR
1000 sponsored by IBM Research will also be given to the best
student paper, authored and presented at Eurographics 2005 by a

CALL FOR STATE OF THE ART REPORTS (STARs):
*****************************************************************
STARs are survey papers that cover hot topics in contemporary
computer graphics research. Their goal is to give a comprehensive
overview of all relevant work in the respective field and to
explain in depth the techniques and algorithms involved. Potential
STARs may be based on a recent tutorial or course given by the
authors. For submission, a 6-10 page STAR-let is sufficient. These
must be formatted according to the EG publication guidelines and
submitted by email to eg2005-stars(a)cs.tcd.ie. All submitted
manuscripts undergo a formal review process. Authors of
conditionally accepted proposals must subsequently submit a final
15-25-page STAR, that incorporates constructive reviewer feedback
and acceptance of the STAR is contingent on this requirement.
Accepted STAR papers will be invited to be submitted as regular
contributions to Computer Graphics Forum.
At EG'05, STAR authors will be given 90 minutes to present the
state-of-the-art of their respective field. For one author, the
conference registration fee will be waived. STARs will be
distributed to conference participants both in printed and CD-ROM
formats and are considered regular conference publications.
Submission date - WEDNESDAY, 16TH OF FEBRUARY, 2005

proposals, the qualification of the presenters, relevance to the
conference, and balance of topics.
Sample course notes, although not required in the submission, are
highly encouraged to accompany the tutorial proposals. Notes may
include original text, formatted according to the EG publication
guidelines, reprints of earlier papers (subject to copyright
approval), slides and any other material the authors consider
useful. All course notes of accepted tutorials will be

Examples of entries could include the use of new medical
visualization techniques, virtual environments and augmented
reality. The winner of the EG2005 Medical Prize will receive a
total prize of € 500, sponsored by Immersion Medical. The judging
panel will select the winning entry on the basis of its clinical
value, use made of computer graphics, and novelty.

Dear Collegue,
with this message I would like to inform you about the current call for
participation
for a number of postdoc fellowships / independent research groups within
the
Max Planck Center for Visual Computing and Communication.
The Max Planck Center has been established jointly by Stanford University
and
the Max Planck Institute for Computer Science in Saarbruecken. Phase I of
the

a
visiting assistant professor. Upon successful completion of Phase I
participants will
be eligible for Phase II of the program which allows them to set up and
chair an
independent research group at MPI Informatik.
Direct applicants for Phase II must have completed a postdoc stay abroad
and
must have demonstrated their outstanding research potential and ability to
successfully lead their own research group.
Further Details are available on the web site
http://www.mpi-sb.mpg.de/mpc/application/application.html
The deadline for the current call is October 31, 2004 with the funding
period starting
in the spring/summer 2005. The exact starting date is flexible.

Summary
Modeling systems possessing great functionality now enable us to create very
complicated models. However, computers have yet to become usable at the very
early stages of design, where pencil and paper still reign. This is because
present-day interfaces require designers to leap large conceptual gaps from
their mental models of desired objects to the geometric models that formally
express their shape. As computer systems become more sophisticated, alternative
input modalities and interface technologies are emerging which may form the
basis for a new generation of sketching applications supporting what we may
call Calligraphic Interfaces. The purpose of this workshop is to explore novel
user interfaces sketching models. The workshop builds on work done in
recent years on modeling, 2D user interfaces and 3D user interfaces.
The workshop will take place just before the Eurographics'04 Conference
(September 1-3, 2004 , Grenoble) . As such, it will provide a very interesting
opportunity for researchers that want to attend /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.
We look forward to meet you in Grenoble
