Dear colleagues,
The State-of-the-Art Reports (STARs) track at the Eurographics conference is a prestigious
and integral component of the event, dedicated to providing comprehensive surveys on
current and emerging topics in computer graphics. These reports synthesize recent
advancements, significant research findings, and future directions in various subfields.
STARs reports have a significant impact on the community, as evidenced by their high
number of citations.
Timeline
All following deadlines are at 23:59 UTC.
[Fri] Oct. 4, 2024: STAR abstract submission deadline
[Fri] Oct. 18, 2024: Full STAR submission deadline
[Fri] Dec. 20, 2024: First review notification
[Fri] Feb. 07, 2025: Revised STAR submission
[Fri] Feb. 28, 2025: Second review notification
[Fri] Mar. 21, 2025: Camera-ready version due
Topics
We welcome submissions on all topics relevant to EUROGRAPHICS and particularly encourage
STARs on subjects not covered in recent editions. STAR reports on cross-sectional,
multidisciplinary areas are also highly encouraged. Additionally, a STAR can address the
use of Computer Graphics techniques in different scientific disciplines or industrial
practices. A list of recent STARs can be found on the websites of recent editions of the
EUROGRAPHICS conference, such as those for 2024
<https://diglib.eg.org/collections/772434be-95f0-4c24-a23e-015e9bfed0cc> , 2023
<https://diglib.eg.org/collections/c7ec898d-60d1-4f6a-9367-de58a2104b7f> and 2022
<https://diglib.eg.org/handle/10.2312/2633168> .
Reviewing Process
Accepted STARs are published in a special issue of the Computer Graphics Forum, which
appears right before the EUROGRAPHICS conference. The journal status of the proceedings
requires a two-stage review process with conditional acceptance after the first round and
final acceptance based on the revised submissions. Submissions needing a major revision
will be transferred to the standard submission track of the Computer Graphics Forum.
Submission Format
We do not impose strict maximum lengths for these submissions. However, it is recommended
that papers be up to 20 pages excluding references and the authors’ short bios, to conform
to the general recommendation for CGF survey papers. STARs must be formatted according to
the Eurographics Computer Graphics Forum guidelines
<https://www.eg.org/wp/eurographics-publications/guidelines/> and submitted as
anonymous papers.
How to Submit
Electronic submissions of STARs are mandatory and will be conducted using the Submission
and Review Management System. Papers must be written in English and prepared according to
this year’s template, which can be downloaded from the Submission and Review Management
(SRMv2) <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/EG_2025STARs> system.
If Accepted
At EUROGRAPHICS 2025, the authors of a STAR will be given 90 minutes to present the report
at a level that allows non-experts in the particular domain to follow the presentation.
