[General] VRIPhyS'07 CALL FOR PAPERS

===================================================================== VRIPhyS'07 CALL FOR PAPERS ====================================================================== Fourth Workshop in Virtual Reality Interactions and Physical Simulations (VRIPHYS '07) Trinity College of Dublin, Ireland, 9th November http://www.vriphys.org This is the fourth edition of the workshop and this year it is hosted by Trinity College, Dublin. The workshop is organized in cooperation with Eurographics. As in previous editions, the goal is to attract high level research papers in the domains of dynamic simulation and physical interaction in virtual reality environments. We also welcome papers showing on-going research with promising results and new technology with applications related. We particularly encourage works in the medical domain due to its strong ties to the workshop topics. Topic Submissions are invited in (but not limited to) the following areas: * Collision detection techniques * Deformable objects (e.g. biomechanical modeling of soft and hard tissues) * Physical standards for assessing deformable objects (e.g. performance metrics & validation of medical simulators) * Natural phenomena modeling (hair, fluids, ...) * Geometric algorithms for physical simulation * Haptic interactions & virtual reality interfaces * Physically based dynamics (video games, medical simulators) The workshop seeks to be an international forum for researchers and students to provide a propitious environment for sharing results and exchanging new concepts on these fields. Information submission Camera ready submission: Papers are allowed 6 to 10 pages and formatted according to the EG publication guidelines for workshop submission. For double-blind reviewing, the anonymous submission version should be used. Accepted papers will be presented orally at the workshop and appear in the proceedings. The works must be formatted in pdf and should include the following data: * Abstract of not more than 150 words. * Three to five keywords. As in previous workshops, we are seeking to publish the best papers in a recognized journal. Deadlines * Papers due: July 3rd * Notification of acceptance: September 10th * Deadline for camera-ready version: October 9th * Conference: November 9th Workshop chairs: * John Dingliana (Trinity College of Dublin - Ireland) * Fabio Ganovelli (National Research Concil - Italy) Local chair: * John Dingliana (Trinity College of Dublin - Ireland) International Program Committee Bedrich Benes Department of Computer Graphics Technology.
