---------------------------------- EuroVis 2018 Short Paper Track Call for Papers Deadline: March 2, 2018, 23:59 GMT ---------------------------------- For the seventh time, EuroVis 2018 (June 4-8, 2018, Brno, Czech Republic) features a short paper track to present late-breaking results, work-in-progress, and follow-up extensions or evaluations of existing methods. Short papers will be peer-reviewed in a one-stage double-blind process by an international program committee. They will be electronically archived in the EG Digital Library and are fully citable publications. All accepted short papers will be presented orally at the conference. A EuroVis short paper describes a more focused and concise research contribution, and is likely to have a smaller - yet still significant - scope of contribution than a full paper. Short papers draw from the same paper types as full papers, as well as the same list of suggested topics. The following descriptive examples, which are characterized in contrast to full papers, may be helpful in understanding what kinds of submissions may be suitable for short papers: * A new visualization technique or system, with evidence of its utility compared to known techniques or systems (described in sufficient detail to assist an expert reader in replicating the technique or system, but without exhaustive implementation detail and evaluation). * An incremental improvement or variation of an existing visualization technique or system with convincing evaluation. * An extensive evaluation of an existing visualization technique or system. * A well-proven counter-example to an existing visualization technique that helps in understanding its limitations. * A new implementation approach that has demonstrably addressed a significant technical issue (without extensive evaluation of the implementation). * A new methodology for designing or studying visualization systems that has demonstrable benefits for the visualization community (without extensive evaluation of the methodology). Submission Information ---------------------- Submissions for the short paper track should be at most 4 pages, with an additional page allowed for references. All submissions must be original works that have not been published previously in any conference proceedings, magazine, journal, or edited book. For detailed paper preparation and submission instructions, please refer to the guidelines in the Submitter Area on the conference web page at http://www.eurovis2018.org/submitters-short-papers/.
