<div class="container">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Accepted STARs will be
published in Computer Graphics Forum</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">State-of-the-Art Reports (STARs)
provide an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of a special
topic of current interest related to Computer Graphics. We
welcome submissions on all topics relevant to EUROGRAPHICS, and
particularly encourage STARs on topics that have not been
covered in any recent previous STAR. A STAR can also address the
use of Computer Graphics techniques in a different scientific
discipline or in industrial practice. For examples of suitable
STAR topics, please refer to the EUROGRAPHICS digital library.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">At EUROGRAPHICS 2017, the authors
of a STAR will be given 90 minutes to present the report at a
level that also allows non-experts in the particular domain to
follow this presentation.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For any questions concerning STAR
submissions please contact the STARs co-chairs Matthias Zwicker
and Victor Ostromoukhov <span

<h3>Submission Details</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">STARs submissions will undergo a
single-blind, double cycle review, similar to the one for
regular papers. Hence, there is no need to prepare a STAR
proposal first. Instead, authors must submit their full-length
STAR. We do not impose strict maximum lengths for these
submissions. However, it is recommended that papers be up to 20
pages excluding references and the authors’ short bios, to
conform to the general recommendation for CGF survey papers.
Each STAR will be reviewed by three members of the IPC who are
experts in the respective topic. Accepted STARs will be
published in a special issue of Computer Graphics Forum, which
appears right before the Eurographics conference. Submissions
needing a major revision will be transferred to the standard
submission track of Computer Graphics Forum.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">To demonstrate the relevant
expertise needed to produce the proposed STAR, authors are
required to submit the brief biographies of all authors as a
piece of supplementary materials.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Electronic submissions of STARs is
mandatory and will be conducted using the <a
href="https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/EG_2017STARs"
target="_blank">Submission and Review Management System
(SRMv2)</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The deadline for the submission of
STAR proposals is <strong>23:59 UTC/GMT</strong>, <strong>September <b

STARs will have to be submitted at a later date for a second
review, and the camera ready version will be due about 6 weeks
before the start of the conference.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We strongly encourage the authors
to submit a short abstract before September 1st, 2016.</p>
