It attracts researchers from across the country and from further afield.</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace"><br></font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">The 2018 conference Computer Graphics & Visual Computing will be an overnight meeting (lunchtime to lunchtime). The conference wants to focus on increasing the dialogue between academic research groups, researchers in academic and in industrial developments. In order to facilitate such dialogue, we are seeking contributions in the form of full papers, short papers, viewpoint papers, and extended abstracts (poster papers).</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace"><br></font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">• Full papers - a paper of 4 to 8 pages describing completed research, plus an additional page of references. Papers are refereed by members of an international program committee (IPC). Authors of accepted papers are expected to give a 20 minute presentation at the conference. Accepted papers will appear in the Eurographics digital library and will serve as full paper publications.</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace"><br></font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">• Short papers - The purpose of short papers is 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 (IPC). They will be electronically archived and are fully citable publications. Submissions for the short paper track should be at most 4 pages, with an additional page allowed for references. Accepted short papers will be presented orally at the conference in (approximately) 15 minute presentations.</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace"><br></font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">• Viewpoint Papers (aka. Position paper, ***new in CGVC2018***) - Viewpoint paper track enables researchers a new possibility to publish their ideas. Viewpoints articles offer detailed technical opinions on trends in visual computing or reports on how visual computing has contributed to the comprehension of data or phenomena, without the need to present completed research work and/or validated results. We encourage discussions of challenges or limitations in today's methods and areas of potential new topics of research. We are also interested in application discussions that focus on, for example, the areas of physical, life or social sciences, engineering, or commerce, or areas related to the process of visual computing in general. We encourage an emphasis on lessons learned from practical experience for application discussions, particularly where visual computing has been employed in a real, working environment. Viewpoint papers are submitted with author names and affiliations (at most 4-pages). Accepted viewpoint papers will be electronically archived, are fully citable publications and will be presented orally at the conference in (approximately) 15 minute presentations.</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace"><br></font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Submissions to the full, short and viewpoint paper tracks that are not accepted for publication but are deemed suitable for poster presentation by the IPC will be offered an opportunity to present in the poster track.</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace"><br></font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">• Extended Abstracts (Poster Papers) - CGVC 2018 is re-introducing a poster track. The purpose of this track is to present late-breaking results, work in progress, and follow-up extensions or evaluations of existing methods. In particular, it provides young researchers, especially postgraduate students, with valuable opportunities to receive feedback from other researchers, and engage in stimulating discussions. The poster track will be managed by the co-chair team and the International Program Committee (IPC) for the papers track. We solicit poster submissions in the form of a poster and an accompanying sketch (i.e., an extended abstract of at most 2 pages, with an additional page allowed for references only). Posters will be peer-reviewed in a one-stage double-blind process. Accepted posters will be presented at the poster viewing session of the conference.</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace"><br></font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Accepted extended abstracts (poster papers) do not appear in the Eurographics digital library, and will not be considered as a paper publication, instead being similar to a SIGGRAPH one-page sketch or to a conference poster without an associated full paper. As such, presenting an extended abstract or a poster at the conference has no effect on your ability to publish a fuller version of the same work in another venue.</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace"><br></font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Topics include, but are not limited to:</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">======================================================</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Computer Graphics</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Visualization</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Computer Vision</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Virtual Reality</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Visual Analytics</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Visual Data Science</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Computer Animation</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Computer-based Arts and Entertainment</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Image processing</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Acquisition and Reconstruction Techniques</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Graphics Architectures and Acceleration Hardware</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Medical Imaging</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Multimedia Visualisation</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Computer Games</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Rendering Techniques</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Scientific Visualisation and Big Data</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Information Visualization and Visual Analytics</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Geospatial Visualisation</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Augmented Reality and Collaborative Environments</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Mobile Apps and Interactive Devices</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Human Computer Interaction, Robotics, and Haptics</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Modelling Methods</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">======================================================</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace"><br></font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Important Dates:</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Submission Deadline (extended): 22 June 2018 (Fri)</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Notification of Acceptance: 24 July 2018 (Tue)</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Camera Ready: 11 August 2018 (Sat)</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Conference: 13-14 September 2018 (Thu-Fri)</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace"><br></font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">======================================================</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace"><br></font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Publication type | Page limit | Accepted publication</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Full Paper | 4-8 pages, + 1-page refs only | fully citable publication</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Short Paper | 2-4 pages, + 1-page refs only | fully citable publication</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Viewpoint Paper (i.e. Position Paper) | 2-4 pages, + 1-page refs only | fully citable publication</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Extended Abstract (i.e. Poster Paper) | 1-2 pages | not considered as a paper publication</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace"><br></font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">======================================================</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Programme Chairs</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Gary KL Tam (Swansea University)</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Franck Vidal (Bangor University)</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Contact: <a href="mailto:chairs-cgvc2018@eg.org">chairs-cgvc2018@eg.org</a></font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace"><br></font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Conference Chair</font></div><div><font face="monospace, monospace">Robert S.
