<p><font face="Calibri" size="+1"> On the "Road to Berlin" (IEEE
VisWeek), LEipzig symposium on Visualization In Applications
(LEVIA) aims at bringing together visualization scholars from
all research areas related to visualization. The focus of the
symposium is to shed a light on different application areas
that enable scientific knowledge discovery with
visualizations. The program will be structured along several
visualization application areas.<br>
<br>
CALL FOR SHORT PAPERS:<br>
Means of visualization are widely used in diverse application
domains to analyze data, to facilitate hypothesis verification
and generation, to derive new data, and to discover trends,
outliers and data-dependent features. Collaborative aspects
between visualization scholars and domain experts as well as
design studies and the development of novel visualization
techniques that shed a new light on known data objects are in
the scope of the symposium. We welcome papers describing
original work, i.e. hitherto unpublished scientific or
information visualization research. Suggested application
domains include, but are not limited to:<br>
- bioinformatics<br>
- business and finance<br>
- digital humanities<br>
- earth, space, and environmental sciences<br>
- geovisualization<br>
- material sciences<br>
- molecular, biomedical, and medical visualization<br>
- multimedia visualization (image/video/music)<br>
- physical sciences and engineering<br>
- social and information sciences<br>
- software visualization<br>
- text visualization<br>
- urban science<br>
- visual analytics<br>
- visualization for the masses<br>
<br>
SUBMISSIONS:<br>
Papers are only accepted in English, they should be carefully
checked for correct grammar and spelling, and authors should
address one or several application domains of visualization.
Papers will be reviewed by at least three experts in the
field. In order to facilitate a double-blind paper evaluation
method, we kindly request authors to submit their paper
without any explicit reference to any of the authors. Please
make sure that submissions do not substantially overlap work
which has been published elsewhere or simultaneously submitted
to a journal or another conference with proceedings. In such a
case, papers will be rejected without reviews.</font><font
