[General] Eurographics 2010 Area Papers

Eurographics 2010 Area Papers In 2010, Eurographics will have a special focus on Mobile Visual Computing and Dome Displays (http://www.eurographics2010.se/calls/area_papers/) which will have paper sessions and other events within the conference devoted to them. With Mobile Visual Computing we understand any aspects of computing images for display on handheld devices, including software or hardware techniques from graphics, vision and image processing, user interfaces and interaction. Domed displays, with real-time computing, are becoming a much more widely used approach to immersive computer graphics. The number of such sites is increasingly rapidly and the technology and applications must advance to meet the new challenges and opportunities which these systems provide. A new domed display environment will be commissioned in Norrköping immediately prior to the Eurographics conference, just minutes away from the conference centre. It is intended that the dome will be used to host the dome areas events and papers, and will provide an excellent environment for authors and exhibitors to demonstrate new ideas for domed environments. List of Topics Suggested topics in the two areas are listed below but submissions are not limited to just these topics, simply to the defined areas. Mobile Visual Computing: a.. Mobile graphics algorithms b.. Mobile graphics applications c.. Mobile graphics hardware d.. Graphical user interfaces for mobile devices e.. Visualization on handheld devices f.. Handheld displays g.. Mobile augmented reality h.. Mobile computational photography i.. User studies, human factors, evaluation of interaction techniques Domed Displays: a.. Projection systems and technologies b.. Audio environment technologies and methods c.. Interaction systems for small and large audiences d.. Software development platforms e.. Mixed media dome shows f.. Combining live performance in dome environments g.. Dome special effects h.. Applications: practical, education and entertainment Accepted papers will be presented at Eurographics 2010 as an oral presentation, and will be published in the Areas Papers proceedings and included in the conference digital media. Authors are invited to submit both normal research papers, as well as contributions that might be difficult to position as a regular or a short paper because they are too much oriented towards the application or address emergent, yet preliminary ideas on the future of Mobile Visual Computing and Dome Displays. The submission deadline for areas papers is December 11, 2009. For any question concerning areas papers submissions please contact the areas programme co-chairs: areas(a)eurographics2010.se Submission Details Submitted areas papers should be formatted according to the Eurographics Areas publication style. For submission purposes, you should submit a paper of up to 8 pages in length, or four pages for a short paper, according to the submission guidelines. Anonymous submissions will be made electronically through the Eurographics online submission system. Please indicate the area to which your work is submitted.
