CFP for Solid and Physical Modeling (SPM-2017). Abstract due Feb 18. Dear friends, We are preparing a wonderful convention next summer in Berkeley that will focus on geometric and computational tools and paradigms for designing, representing, analyzing, and simulating Shapes, Solids, and Structures. Please consider contributing with paper submissions and your presence. Also, please help us promote this CFP by forwarding to colleagues and students. Hope to see you there. - Vadim, Sara, Mario, Stefanie, Jessica, Leah Solid and Physical Modeling (SPM-2017) <https://s3pm.icsi.berkeley.edu/s3pm/spm.html> https://s3pm.icsi.berkeley.edu/s3pm/spm.html WHEN: SPM (June 19th – 21st) followed by SMI (June 21st – 23rd) WHERE: UC Berkeley Campus, Berkeley, California, USA The Symposium on Solid and Physical Modeling 2017 (SPM-2017) will be co-located in Berkeley, California with Shape Modeling International (SMI) as part of the International Convention on Shape, Solid, Structure & Physical Modeling (S3PM-2017). SPM seeks high quality, original research contributions that strive to advance all aspects of geometric and physical modeling, and their application in design, analysis and manufacturing, as well as in biomedical, geophysical, digital entertainment, and other areas. The symposium is organized with the support of the Solid Modeling Association (SMA), which will award the 2017 Pierre Bézier Prize for contributions to solid, shape, and physical modeling during the conference. Accepted full-length papers will be published as a journal special issue in Computer-Aided Design (Elsevier).
