[General] Eurographics 2009 Symposium on Parallel Graphics and Visualization: CFP

================================================================== Eurographics 2009 Symposium on Parallel Graphics and Visualization (EGPGV'09) March 29-30, 2009, Munich, Germany Co-located with Eurographics '09 http://www.egpgv.org ================================================================== -------------------- Call for Papers -------------------- Aims and Scope of the Symposium ------------------------------- Parallel computing in its various guises is becoming ubiqtuious, any form of efficient computation has begun to require some aspect of parallelisation. This is particularly pronounced in the computationally demanding disciplines of computer graphics and visualisation as witnessed by the development and rise of the largely parallel GPU and more recently with multicore technologies. We are proud to announce the 9th Eurographics Symposium on Parallel Graphics and Visualisation. EGPGV is the sole symposium on parallel graphics and visulisation presenting state of the art methods and technologies. The aim of this symposium is to encourage an exchange of knowledge and experience in parallel and distributed computing and its application to all aspects of computer graphics and data visualization. - All papers should have some aspect of parallel graphics and visualisation related to - clusters - distributed systems - grid environments - shared memory computing - multicore architectures - clusters of GPUs - theoretical models - other parallel architectures We welcome topics relevant to parallel graphics and visualisation (but not limited to): - visualisation and graphics for scientific, engineering and commercial applications - out of core rendering using distributed memorey management - parallel programming - scheduling and memory management for graphics and visualisation applications - Efficient graphics - Large and high resolution displays - Photo-realistic rendering - Volume rendering - Data coherence in graphics algorithms - Large data set visualization - Realistic rendering of large models - Large scale simulations and graphics rendering - simulations for interactive applications - Parallelism within GPU architectures - GPGPU applications - multimodal applications - other aspects of computer graphics and visualisation Paper Submission and Important Dates ------------------------------------ The proceedings of the Symposium will be published in the Eurographics Proceedings Series and on the Eurographics Digital Library. The authors of up to three of the best papers of the Symposium will be invited to submit extended versions of their papers to IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics.
