================================================================== Eurographics 2008 Symposium on Parallel Graphics and Visualization (EGPGV'08) April 14-15, 2008, Crete, Greece Co-located with Eurographics '08 http://vidi.cs.ucdavis.edu/EGPGV08 ================================================================== ------------------------------------ Call for Papers - Deadline Extension ------------------------------------ Aims and Scope of the Symposium ------------------------------- Following the success of previous EGPGV symposia, we are happy to announce the 8th Eurographics Symposium on Parallel Graphics and Visualization. The new generation of parallel architectures introduce many exciting research opportunities. The extreme-scale of these new parallel systems redefines the scalability problem of many graphics and visualization applications. The aim of this symposium is to foster greater exchange of experiences and knowledge of parallel and distributed computing and its application to all aspects of computer graphics and data visualization. Topics of interest include but not limited to: - Cluster based graphics and visualization - Efficient graphics and visualization for shared and distributed memory systems - Parallel and distributed systems for large and high resolution displays - Parallel and distributed systems for photo-realistic rendering - Parallel volume rendering - Data coherence in graphics algorithms - Large data set visualization - Realistic rendering of large models - Large scale simulations and graphics rendering - Graphics and visualization in Grid environments - Parallel simulations for interactive applications - Parallelism within GPU architectures - GPU and GPGPU clusters - Parallel graphics and visualization on multi-core CPUs and other parallel architectures The EGPGV Symposium is co-located with the Eurographics Annual Conference, which will take place from April 14-18. Eurographics Annual Conference web page: http://www.ics.forth.gr/eg2008/ 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.
