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.

Instructions for Submission
---------------------------
 
Each full paper for submission should be formatted using the EG
publication style proceedings templates. It must not be longer than
twelve(12) pages in length, including references and figures.
 
Each short paper for submission should be formatted and submitted in
the same way as a full paper, except that its length must not be
longer than six(6) pages.
 
The presentation format will allow for ample discussion time. Only
electronic submissions will be accepted through the Precision
Conference System
 
The authors of each accepted paper need to complete and return the EG
Copyright Assignment Form.
 
Note: This year there is very little time between acceptance
notification and the due date for camera ready copies of the paper. We
will therefore have to strictly enforce all deadlines.
