Call For Posters and Registration

News

There were 47 high quality paper submissions from a broad selection of institutions this year. The submissions introduce novel research in a range of areas relevant to the conference; it will be certainly be an exciting series of presentations this summer in Paris. A tentative program will be posted to the conference website shortly.
Registration is now open. To take advantage of early registration rates, see http://www.highperformancegraphics.org/registration.php.
Posters and Hot3D submissions continue to be accepted, with a deadline of Monday, May 7th for both tracks. There are also demonstration opportunities, see below for more information.

Introduction

We are pleased to announce High-Performance Graphics 2012. High Performance Graphics is the leading international forum for performance-oriented graphics systems research including innovative algorithms, efficient implementations, and hardware architecture. The conference brings together researchers, engineers, and architects to discuss the complex interactions of massively parallel hardware, novel programming models, efficient graphics algorithms, and novel applications. High Performance Graphics was founded in 2009 to synthesize and broaden on two important and well-respected conferences in computer graphics: Graphics Hardware and Interactive Ray Tracing.

Conference Info

The conference, which will take place on June 25-27, is co-located with the Eurographics Symposium on Rendering in Paris, France. HPG 2012 is co-sponsored by Eurographics and ACM SIGGRAPH. The program features three days of paper and industry presentations, with ample time for discussions during breaks, lunches, and the conference banquet. The conference website is located at http://www.highperformancegraphics.org/

Posters

We invite the submission of posters describing on-going or late-breaking work. In addition to traditional posters, this session will be enhanced to provide opportunities for paper authors to present implementation details or hands-on demonstrations.

The deadline for poster submissions is Monday, May 7. Notification of acceptance is Monday, May 14.

To submit a poster, please:

Prepare an extended abstract (one page maximum) that summarizes the work using the paper format described above.
Prepare a high-quality version of the final poster.
Send both items (in PDF format) to posters@highperformancegraphics.org

Additional information:

Posters will be exhibited in the break areas throughout the conference. For each poster, we will attempt to make space available for interactive demonstrations (if necessary and only upon request).
Poster authors will be responsible for printing the poster, bringing it to the conference, and putting it up. Easels will be provided.

For further information please contact: posters@highperformancegraphics.org

Hot 3D Systems Track

We invite vendors in the graphics industry to present their latest and greatest 3D chips, high-performance software, and system designs.

Presentations should be 20 minutes long, technical rather than marketing-oriented, and with a focus on real products. Hot 3D presentations are not considered archival publications for the purposes of future submission to peer-reviewed venues.

The deadline for Hot 3D applications is Monday, May 7.

For further information please contact: hot3d@highperformancegraphics.org

Demonstrations

Presenters and participants are invited to bring prototypes and products for demonstration at the event. Demonstrations will be held during breaks and before and after the sessions. We highly encourage paper authors and industry presenters to demonstrate their systems. Please contact the organizing committee by email at general@highperformancegraphics.org to arrange for space or electrical connections that may be required for your demonstration.
