Topics to be covered</div><div>include <span class="">computational</span> geometry and related topics, e.g.,</div><div><br></div><div> * Algorithmic methods in geometry and topology</div><div> * Sensor networks and network technologies</div><div> * I/O-scalable geometric algorithms</div><div> * Animation of geometric algorithms</div><div> * Computer graphics</div><div> * Solid modeling</div><div> * Geographic information systems</div><div> * Graph drawing</div><div> * Experimental studies</div><div> * Folding and unfolding</div><div> * Geometric data structures</div><div> * Implementation issues</div><div> * Robustness in geometric <span class="">computations</span></div><div> * Geometric algorithms for machine learning</div><div> * Computer vision</div><div> * Robotics</div><div> * Computer-aided design</div><div> * Mesh generation</div><div> * Manufacturing applications of geometry</div><div> * <span class="">Computational</span> biology and geometric <span class="">computations</span></div><div> * Practical Applications of Geometry</div></div><div style="font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-size:13px">Following the tradition of the previous <span class="">Fall</span> <span class="">Workshops</span> on <span class="">Computational</span> Geometry, the format of the <span class="">workshop</span> will be informal, extending over 2 days, with several breaks scheduled for discussions. To promote a free exchange of questions and research challenges, there will be an Open Problem Session to present and discuss open problems. The <span class="">workshop</span> will include 3-4 invited speakers, eminent leaders in their respective fields who have witnessed first-hand the need for geometric computing and its applications. We hope that the interaction with the <span class="">computational</span>geometry community will be stimulating both to <span class="">computational</span> geometers and to those involved in applying techniques of <span class="">computational</span> geometry to other disciplines.<br></div><div style="font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-size:13px"><div>For more information visit: <span style="font-size:small"><a href="http://www.cse.buffalo.edu/fwcg2015" target="_blank">http://www.cse.buffalo.edu/fwcg2015</a></span></div><div><span style="font-size:small"><br></span></div><div>Registration:</div><div>----------------------------------------------------------------------------</div><div>There are no registration fees, but for logistical reasons, we ask that you register on the <span class="">workshop</span> website at <span style="font-size:small"><a href="http://www.cse.buffalo.edu/fwcg2015/" target="_blank">http://www.cse.buffalo.edu/fwcg2015/</a></span><span style="font-size:small">registration.html</span></div><div><span style="font-size:small"><br></span></div><div>Paper Submission:</div><div>----------------------------------------------------------------------------</div><div><br></div><div>Authors are invited to submit their abstracts for contributed talks through Easychair: </div><div><a href="https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fwcg2015" target="_blank">https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fwcg2015</a></div><div><br></div><div>Deadline: September 25, 2015, with acceptance notification by October 3.</div><div>Participants who need an earlier acceptance confirmation should submit earlier and also send an email to the chair; we try to accommodate all requests.</div><div><br></div><div>Your abstracts should be two pages, pdf-files (not word-files), no page numbers, preferably with 11pt font. </div><div><br></div><div>Because there are no formal proceedings for the <span class="">workshop</span>, submission of material that is to be submitted to (or to appear in) a refereed conference (e.g., SODA'2016, SoCG'2016) is allowed and encouraged; but please indicate clearly with the submission if the work has already been presented/accepted elsewhere.
