cloud-based rendering and other services
- Streaming, compression, and transmission of 3D content, in particular in
mobile networks
- Collaboration in multi-user virtual environments
- Novel APIs, toolkits, and frameworks for 3D web and associated application
domains
- Virtual humans, avatars, and complex reactive characters
- Motion capture for composition and streaming of behaviors and expressions
- Annotation, metadata, hyperlinking and semantic web for 3D objects and
scenes
- Visual analytics based on 3D web technologies
- Diffusion and adoption of 3D web technologies
- Novel interactive 3D web applications in all areas and sectors, e.g.,
entertainment, education, training, cultural heritage, medicine, military,
smart-manufacturing / industry 4.0, information visualization, scientific
visualization, geo-visualization, building information modeling (BIM), and
architecture.
SUBMISSIONS
PAPERS presenting original work in 3D web research and application may be
submitted in a long or short form (up to 9 or 4 pages). Submissions will be
peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be included in the ACM Digital Library
and submitted to major indexing services, such as Web of Science, DBLP, and
Scopus.
POSTERS present results of ongoing or recently completed work in 3D web
research and application. The poster format offers the opportunity to
interactively present and discuss interesting results to the Web3D
community. Posters should be submitted in the form of abstracts (2 pages),
which after acceptance will be published in the conference proceedings.
TUTORIALS are an opportunity to present introductory and advanced
applications of 3D web technologies to students and to experienced
practitioners. Tutorial subjects can include practices for authoring
interactive 3D scenes and in using 3D graphics in diverse application areas.
Especially welcome are tutorials in the use of open-source software and web
applications, which can be presented in hands-on sessions at the conference.
WORKSHOPS provide a forum for researchers and practitioners from both the
web and 3D multimedia communities to discuss and exchange positions on
current and emergent 3D web topics. Workshops may take the form of
presentation sessions moderated by workshop organizers or open discussions
on a specific topic of interest.
DEMONSTRATIONS enable artists, content designers, and developers to share
their innovative 3D works at the conference. Artworks and applications
developed for various platforms, including the web, desktop, mobile and
VR/AR systems, are welcome. Demonstrations should be submitted in the form
of short descriptions (2 pages), which after acceptance may be published in
the conference proceedings.
INDUSTRIAL USE CASES enable practitioners to demonstrate how 3D web
technologies may be used in industrial applications. A special track during
Web3D 2018 will be devoted to industrial use cases to share inspiration,
best practice and requirements of using 3D in various application domains.
COMPETITION (H-ANIM) This annual competition is dedicated to showing how
H-Anim and X3D graphics standards can be used for creating animated music
videos. The competition is organized by the Korean Standards Association
(KSA) and Web3D Consortium. For competitors, attendance at the conference is

Call for Doctoral Consortium
The Eurographics Doctoral Consortium is a networking event that provides PhD
students, working in all areas of computer graphics, with an excellent
opportunity to present their work and interact with distinguished and
experienced researchers in the field, receiving feedback and mentoring, as
well as a different perspective from senior researchers outside their home
institution.
In addition, the Doctoral Consortium provides a unique forum for PhD
students to share their work and experience among their fellow PhD students.
The Doctoral Consortium will take place within the Eurographics 2018
conference, to be held in Delft, April 16-20, 2018.
Who should apply?
PhD students working in all areas of computer graphics are encouraged to
apply. We particularly encourage applications from students who are in the
first half of their PhD work, especially those who already have a clear
research direction (possibly with some published results), as they have
sufficient time ahead to profit from their participation in the Doctoral
Consortium.
Students who are close to finishing their doctorate degree, or have very
recently finished it, are also welcome, to share their experience and to
discuss their ongoing research and future research plans.

SHREC 2018, http://www.shrec.net/
Call for Track Proposals
*Introduction*
The general objective of the 3D Shape Retrieval Contest is to evaluate the
effectiveness of 3D-shape retrieval algorithms. SHREC'18 is the thirteens
edition of the contest. Like previous years, it is organized in conjunction
with the Eurographics Workshop on 3D Object Retrieval, where the results
will be reviewed and included in the workshop proceedings.
Thanks to the efforts of previous track organizers, SHREC already provides
many resources to compare and evaluate 3D retrieval methods. For this year's
contest, we aim to explore new and updated tracks. Therefore, the
participants are invited to have an active role in the organization of the
event. This includes proposing track themes, building or acquiring a test
collection, and deciding upon the queries, relevance assessment, and
performance measures.
The participants of each track will collectively write a paper, which will
be published in the proceedings of the Eurographics Workshop 3D Object
Retrieval 2018, https://3dor2018.sites.uu.nl/. At least one author per track
must register for the workshop, and present the results. We also cordially
invite all participants of a track to register and attend the workshop.
*Tracks*
The tracks organized in the past years have covered different aspects and
tasks of 3D shape retrieval, for example: rigid or non-rigid models; partial
(e.g. range scan) or complete models; sketch-based 3D retrieval; generic or
domain specific models (e.g. CAD, biometrics, architectural and protein),
and various aspects such as metric learning, outlier detection,
correspondence, robustness, stability, registration, classification,
recognition, pose estimation, and machine learning.
Now we solicit again proposals for tracks. You may opt for one of the above
themes, or propose new ones. Track organizers are responsible for all
aspects of organizing the track, such as: the task, the data collection
(copyright issues, etc.), the queries, the ground truth, the experimental
design, the evaluation method, and the procedural aspects, writing the final
paper in collaboration with the contestants, and submitting it. See the
SHREC home page http://www.shrec.net/ for examples of organizational aspects
of previous tracks.
*Procedure*
The following list is a step-by-step description of the activities:
. Potential track organizers send their proposal to shrec(a)cs.uu.nl
<mailto:shrec@cs.uu.nl> , describing the envisioned task, collection,
queries, ground truth, evaluation method, and expected number of
participants.
. Promising tracks and their organizers will be listed at the SHREC web
page, the track organizers start working out the details.
. Participants register for the tracks they want to participate in.
. Each track is performed according to its own schedule.
. The track organizers collect the results.
. The track results are combined into a joint paper, to be included in the
proceedings of the Eurographics Workshop on 3D Object Retrieval(included in
the digital library of Eurographics).
. The description of the tracks and their results are presented at the
Eurographics Workshop on 3D Object Retrieval (April 15-16, 2018, Delft, The
Netherlands).
*SHREC Time Schedule*
Important dates
. January 21, 2018: Submission deadline for track proposals.
. January 22, 2018: Notification of acceptance of track proposals.
. Jan, Feb, 2018: Each track has its own time line.
