[General] EGPGV 2016: CFP for Visualization Showcases

[We apologize if you receive multiple copies of this message.] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Eurographics 2016 Symposium on Parallel Graphics and Visualization (EGPGV 2016) ========================================================================= June 6-7, 2016, Groningen, the Netherlands Co-located with EuroVis 2016 www.egpgv.org Second Call for Visualization Showcases -- Extended Deadline ================================================= This year EGPGV presents the second edition of the Visualization Showcase. This track provides a forum for the year's most instrumental movies in parallel graphics and visualization. Finalists will compete for the Best Visualization Award, and each finalist will present his or her movie during a dedicated session at EGPGV '16 in a 10-minute presentation. Movies are judged based on how they illuminate science, by the quality of the movie, and for innovations in the process used for creating the movie. Accepted submissions will appear as short papers in the symposium proceedings. Review and selection process for Visualization Showcases ================================================ Submissions need to include a movie (up to 150MB in size) and a short paper (up to 4 pages including references). The short paper should describe the scientific story conveyed by the movie, how the visualization helps scientific discovery, and the "state-of-the-practice" information behind making the movie. Each showcase submission will be peer-reviewed by the EGPGV International Program Committee. Criteria for revision include: * Compelling visualization * Visualizing data involving parallel graphics and/or parallel visualization in a significant way (e.g., data size, parallel processing, parallel rendering) * Meaningful and compelling science story * Description of visualization techniques necessary to accomplish the movie Important Dates ================= Showcase Submission: April 1, 2016 Author Notification: April 15, 2016 Camera-Ready Submission: April 25, 2016 Symposium: June 6-7, 2016 Submission Information ================== To submit a visualization showcase, upload the paper (formatted using the Latex templates provided on the symposium’s website) and the accompanying movie in the “Visualization Showcase” track on the PCS system (precisionconference.com/~vgtc).
