>>>>CFP EGPGV 2016 VISUALIZATION SHOWCASES -- EXTENDED DEADLINE

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Eurographics 2016 Symposium on Parallel Graphics and Visualization

(EGPGV 2016)

=========================================================================

June 6-7, 2016, Groningen, the Netherlands

Co-located with EuroVis 2016

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
