Aims and Scope of the
Symposium
-------------------------------
Following successful previous workshops/symposia that
were held in
Grenoble (F) 2004, Bristol (UK)
1996, Rennes (F) 1998, Girona (E)
2000, and Blaubeuren (D)
2002, we are happy to announce the
6th
Eurographics Symposium on Parallel Graphics and
Visualization. The
aim of this symposium is to
share experiences and knowledge of
parallel and
distributed computing and its application to all aspects
of
computer graphics, virtual reality, scientific and
engineering
visualization.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
Cluster based graphics and visualization
Efficient
graphics and visualization for shared and distributed memory systems
Parallel and distributed systems for large and high resolution
displays
Parallel and distributed systems for photo-realistic
rendering
Parallel volume rendering
Real-time systems for 3D
virtual reality
Data coherence in graphics algorithms
Large
data set visualization
Large model realistic rendering
Large
scale simulations and graphics rendering
Graphics and visualization in
grid environments
Parallel simulations for interactive
applications
Parallelism within GPU architectures
GPU
clusters
The EGPGV Symposium will follow the Eurovis06 Symposium on
Visualization and the
Eurographics Workshop in Virtual Environments that
will take place in Lisbon, Portugal,
on the same week, from the 8th to the
10th of May, 2006 .

Papers and Short Papers
------------------------------
The proceedings of the symposium will be published in the Eurographics
Proceedings Series.
Selected papers will also be published in a Special Issue of the Journal of
Parallel Computing, following a tradition established on 2004.
There will be a "best paper" award based on the content of the paper and
selected by the Program chairs. There will also be a "best presentation" award
based on the oral presentation and selected by all the symposium
attendees.
