Max Planck Institute for Informatics
The Max Planck Center for Visual Computing and Communication (MPC-VCC) was
established as a joint program by the Max Planck Society for the Advancement
of Science (MPG) and Stanford University in 2003 (http://www.mpc-vcc.org).
With this call the Max Planck Center for Visual Computing and Communication
(MPC-VCC) invites applications for its
Junior Research Group Program
Our Junior Research Group program offers young scientists in information
technology the opportunity to develop their own research program addressing
important problems in areas such as
* image communication
* computer graphics
* geometric computing
* imaging systems
* computer vision
* human machine interface
* distributed multimedia architectures
* multimedia networking
* visual media security.
The center includes an outstanding group of faculty members at Stanfords
Computer Science and Electrical Engineering Departments, the Max Planck
Institute for Informatics, and Saarland University.
The program begins with a preparatory 1-2 year postdoc phase (Phase P)
at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics, followed by a two-year
appointment at Stanford University (Phase I) as a visiting assistant
professor, and then a position at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics
as a junior research group leader (Phase II). However, the program can be
entered flexibly at each phase, commensurate with the experience of the
applicant.
Applicants to the program must have completed an outstanding PhD.
Exact duration of the preparatory postdoc phase is flexible, but we
typically expect this to be about 1-2 years. Applicants who completed their
PhD in Germany may enter Phase I of the program directly. Applicants for
Phase II are expected to have completed a postdoc stay abroad and must have
demonstrated their outstanding research potential and ability to
successfully lead a research group.
Reviewing of applications will commence on 01 Jan 2019. The final
deadline is 31 Jan 2019. Applicants should submit their CV, copies of their
school and university reports, list of publications, reprints of five
selected publications, names of 3-5 references, a brief description of their
previous research and a detailed description of the proposed research
project (including possible opportunities for collaboration with existing
research groups at Saarbrücken and Stanford) to:
Prof. Dr. Hans-Peter Seidel
Max Planck Institute for Informatics,
Campus E 1 4, 66123 Saarbrücken, Germany;
Email: mpc-vcc(a)mpi-inf.mpg.de <mailto:mpc-vcc@mpi-inf.mpg.de>
The Max Planck Society is an equal opportunity employer, committed to
increasing the number of individuals with disabilities in its workforce, and
therefore encourages applications from such qualified individuals.
Furthermore, the Max Planck Society seeks to increase the number of women in
those areas where they are underrepresented and therefore explicitly
encourages women to apply.

Vancouver, Canada
gmpconf.org <http://gmpconf.org>
Second call for papers
Geometric Modeling and Processing (GMP) 2019 will be co-located in Vancouver
with the Symposium on Solid and Physical Modeling (SPM), the SIAM conference
on Computational Geometric Design, and Shape Modeling International (SMI) as
part of the <http://www.geometrysummit.org/> International Geometry Summit
in 2019.
GMP is an annual international conference series on geometric modeling,
simulation, and computing. The modeling and processing of geometric data is
fundamental to many computer applications, including computer graphics,
computer vision, CAD/CAM, medical imaging, engineering analysis, robotics,
additive manufacturing, and scientific computing. The GMP conference series
provides researchers and practitioners with a forum for exchanging new
ideas, discussing new applications, and presenting new solutions. The
organizers of GMP 2019 invite submissions of full-length papers on topics
including, but not limited, to:
* Mathematical foundations of computer-aided geometric design
* Computational geometry algorithms and their analyses
* Multi-resolution and heterogeneous modeling
* Geometric feature modeling and recognition
* Representation of curves and surfaces
* Discrete differential geometry
* Isogeometric analysis
* Shape optimization
* Material modeling
* 3D printing and computational manufacturing
Paper Submission and Proceedings:
The official language of the conference is English and manuscripts must be
written in English. The submitted papers should present previously
unpublished, original results that are not simultaneously submitted
elsewhere. All papers will be rigorously peer-reviewed by members of the
international program committee of GMP. The review process will be
double-blind. The LaTeX template for submissions can be found in SRM under
<https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/GMP_2019/Instruction> Instructions.
The conference proceedings will be published in a special issue of
<https://www.journals.elsevier.com/computer-aided-geometric-design>
Computer-Aided Geometric Design (CAGD, Elsevier). To meet the high standards
of this journal, papers will undergo a two-stage review process, which will
be handled via <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/GMP_2019> SRM.
Authors of papers that are determined to be acceptable with minor revisions
during the first review cycle will be invited to submit a revised version
for the second review cycle. Only the papers that are accepted in this
second review cycle will appear in the journal issue and be presented at the
conference. Submissions with strong potential but requiring major revisions
will be recommended to Computer-Aided Geometric Design for a fast-track
submission process with optional reviewer continuity.
