CALL FOR Poster Papers
International Conference on Cyberworlds CW2024 Yamanashi, Japan, October
29-31, 2024
https://cyberworlds2024.yamanashi-u.jp/
In-cooperation with Eurographics Association and ACM SIGGRAPH
Cyberworlds are information spaces and communities that immensely augment the way we interact, participate in business and receive information throughout the world. Cyberworlds seriously impact our lives and the evolution of the world economy by taking such forms as social networking services, 3D shared virtual communities and massively multiplayer online role-playing games. The international conferences on Cyberworlds have being organized annually since 2002 with the proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society and selected papers published in multiple journals, including The Visual Computer. The 23rd annual Cyberworlds conference, Cyberworlds 2024, will be held in Kofu, Yamanashi Prefecture, which is renowned as the home of Mount Fuji.
Up to 2-page poster papers will also be included in the conference proceedings, which will be published by the IEEE Computer Society's Conference Publishing Services and indexed by IEEE Xplore and SCOPUS (EI Compendex).
While both full and short papers require a “Full Registration,” a poster presentation by a student only requires a“Student Registration”. However, student registrants will have full access to the conference, including all social events, same as full and short paper presenters. This includes the reception at a winery, the banquet with a fantastic night view, and the excursion to the Mount Fuji area.

GCH 2024
You are cordially invited to contribute to the 22nd EUROGRAPHICS Workshop on Graphics and Cultural Heritage (GCH). GCH 2024 ( <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.gch2024.eu/__;!!IWcW7C1FDU-5!bjiD6HJ…> https://www.gch2024.eu/) welcomes presentations of new research, projects, demonstrations and applications that demonstrate how computer graphics and other digital technologies are impacting Cultural Heritage (CH) research, preservation and dissemination and promoting sustainable cultural tourism. Specific sessions will be organised to seek new challenges and projects involving different stakeholders of the Heritage ecosystem. Hence, interdisciplinary, and multidisciplinary approaches are particularly welcome to the event.
Location
The event aims to engage with practitioners and researchers across the world working at novel digital technologies and approaches to CH. This year, the workshop is organized in Darmstadt (Germany) from 16th – 18th September 2024 and will take place in the Hessian Landesmuseum ( <https://www.hlmd.de/en/> Welcome to the Hessisches Landesmuseum Darmstadt – Hessische Landesmuseum Darmstadt (hlmd.de))
City of Science or Centre of Culture? Darmstadt is both. Like almost no other city, it combines an appreciation of the arts with a passion for science and innovation. Darmstadt still has the charm of a royal capital – at the same time it is a modern city, a laboratory for cultural as well as scientific experiments. The journey started on the Mathildenhöhe with the forming of the Artists' Colony, a group of artists whose exhibitions enjoyed worldwide recognition and who created a document of modern forms of construction and housing - starting point for modern industrial design.
UNESCO honored Darmstadt’s Mathildenhöhe as world heritage site in July 2021 as an outstanding example of experimental architecture of the early 20th century consisting of the Wedding Tower, Exhibition Hall, Artists' Colony Museum, plane tree grove and artists' houses.
The second UNESCO award back in 1995 was the honoration of the Messel Pit as UNESCO Natural Heritage Site. Messel Pit is the richest site in the world for understanding the living environment of the Eocene, between 57 million and 36 million years ago. In particular, it provides unique information about the early stages of the evolution of mammals and includes exceptionally well-preserved mammal fossils, ranging from fully articulated skeletons to the contents of stomachs of animals of this period.
GCH2024 invites you to join into dedicated trips to both sites, offering you a unique opportunity to visit the two world heritage sites.
Objectives
The objective of this year’s EG GCH is to foster discussion between research scientists at the crossroads of AI, Computer Vision, Computer Graphics, HCI design, and Digital Heritage researchers, in a collaborative environment with cultural institutions, scholars in the Cultural Heritage domain and Creative Industries.
GCH 2024 welcomes presentations of new research, projects, applications and best practices that show innovative ideas or other advanced digital technologies involved in CH research, analysis, preservation, simulation, documentation, dissemination, and promotion. Inter-disciplinary and multi-disciplinary approaches are particularly welcome to the event.
We encourage the community to participate in the discussions on promises and concerns about the adoption of AI and reconstruction technologies by scientists and practitioners in the field of Creative Industries and CH.
For the research community, GCH 2024 will provide an excellent scientific forum to exchange novel ideas and groundbreaking developments as well as to identify future research opportunities. For practitioners and students, GCH 2024 will provide a unique opportunity to feed into technical developments as well as to identify new techniques and ideas which can be transferred into practice.
Journal Tracks
Like last year, GCH has established agreements with leading journals, including the ACM Journal on Computing and Cultural Heritage and the Elsevier Digital Applications in Archaeology and Cultural Heritage Journal. Hence, we invite authors to submit innovative research via Special Issues in these journals.
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/dl.acm.org/journal/jocch__;!!IWcW7C1FDU-…> ACM JOCCH’s Special Issue on “Visual Heritage” focuses on novel computing research for documenting, accessing and researching cultural heritage, including areas of computer graphics, computer vision, artificial intelligence, visualisation, human-computer interfaces, and other visual technologies. Short versions of these papers will be included in the EG proceedings, while the Special Issue will be published by December 2024.
!!! This call is closed !!!
Elsevier DAACH’ Special Issue on “Digital Restoration for Cultural Heritage Preservation” focuses on applications, design and advancements in 3D digitization, digital restoration, and visualization techniques specifically tailored for the preservation of cultural heritage. More information on the call can be found at: <https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/digital-applications-in-archaeology-a…> https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/digital-applications-in-archaeology-a…
!!! This call is still open !!!
