9th EUROGRAPHICS WORKSHOP ON RENDERING

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

June 29 - July 1, 1998
Vienna, Austria



Aims and Scope:

Following successful workshops in the last eight years, the ninth Eurographics workshop on Rendering will take place in Vienna, Austria. It is organized by the Institute of Computer Graphics at the Vienna University of Technology in association with Eurographics, in the context of the Eurographics Working Group on Rendering activities. The workshop is well established as a major international forum for the exchange of ideas and experiences in the area of rendering algorithms and techniques.

Submissions are invited in (but not limited to) the following areas:

Research and development driven by real-world applications are encouraged. In order to include application reports and papers with preliminary results or speculative ideas, a short paper category is available in addition to full papers. The category of submitted papers will be decided based on the reviewing results, but authors may submit papers specifically to the short paper category. As has been the tradition in previous workshops, the presentation format will allow for ample discussion time. The number of participants will be limited to 90. Invited lectures will be given by Anthony Apodaca from Pixar Animation Studios, USA, and Tomoyuki Nishita from Fukuyama University, Japan.

Contributions:

Authors are requested to submit five printed copies of a paper and five copies of any accompanying video to one of the two Programme Committee Chairs listed below. The length should be no more than 12 pages (6 pages for a short paper). If a video is submitted, an effort should be made to include the segment in both PAL and NTSC on the same VHS tape, to ensure that it can be seen by all reviewers.

A cover sheet should also be included with information on the author to be contacted, with postal address, email, telephone, and fax number. In addition to the local proceedings distributed at the workshop, the proceedings will be published as a book by Springer, which is planned to be part of the SIGGRAPH Plus membership package. An authors toolkit including LaTeX and MS Word style files is available from the conference Web page. Submissions missing the April 1 deadline will be considered with reduced priority, to the extent practical within the short review cycle.

NEW To facilitate the assignment of reviewers we strongly urge authors to send an e-mail to both co-chairs containing the names and institutions of all authors, and the (not necessarily final) title and abstract of the submission, by midnight (CEST) March 26, 1998.

Schedule:


Organisation:

Student discounts will be made available based on sponsoring. A social event is also planned and will be charged separately.
