[General] Call for Papers: 18th Eurographics Symposium on Rendering 2007

18th Eurographics Symposium on Rendering 2007 Grenoble, June 25-27, 2007 Call for Papers --------------- The Eurographics Symposium on Rendering 2007 (http://egsr07.inrialpes.fr) will take place in Grenoble, France, from June 25 to June 27, 2007. This is an event in the series of highly successful Eurographics Symposia on Rendering and the Eurographics Workshops on Rendering, held over the past 17 years. The local organizer of the conference is Nicolas Holzschuch. The program chairs are Jan Kautz and Sumanta Pattanaik. Conference Topics ----------------- Conference topics include (but are not limited to): * Global illumination methods * Monte Carlo techniques * Finite element techniques * Sampling, filtering, and anti-aliasing * Shadows and visibility * Human perception and error measures * Texture models, analysis, and synthesis * Image-based methods * Sensing for graphics * Point-based rendering * New rendering hardware and new uses of existing hardware * Real-time rendering and real-time ray tracing * Systems and software architecture for rendering * Virtual/augmented reality and interactive systems * Rendering dynamic/animated environments * Non-photorealistic rendering We welcome short papers (max. 6 pages) as well as full papers (max. 12 pages). Only electronic submissions will be accepted. This year we will set aside about 75% of accepted papers for oral presentations and 25% for poster presentations. Note that all the accepted papers will be chosen through the same rigorous selection process, and will be published in the proceedings --- only the presentation form changes. We believe that this new format will allow for ample discussion time.
