[Christian.Tominski]

***** Apologies for multiple postings *********

Dear colleagues,

please find below the call for papers of the special track
"Interactive Visualization in Novel and Heterogeneous Display
Environments" as part of the "7th International Symposium on
Visual Computing (ISVC'11)".

We invite you to submit your work in this new and hot area of
visualization research. The symposium will take place in
the Monte Carlo Resort & Casino, Las Vegas, Nevada on
September 26-28, 2011. For further information and details
on the submission procedure, please visit http://www.isvc.net

We are looking forward to an exciting event.

Best regards,

Details of the special track:

**** Scope ****

Technical advances in display technology have led to new opportunities 
in many fields of application. This special track is dedicated to 
exploring the new possibilities that these technologies can bring to 
visual and interactive data exploration and analysis. There are a 
variety of new technologies available to be used for displaying 
information and for interacting with it in novel and innovative ways. We 
solicit submissions related (but not restricted) to visualization on 
novel displays (e.g., smart phones, tablets, large touch-sensitive 
surfaces) and in heterogeneous multi-display environments (e.g., ambient 
or smart environments). Submitted papers may analyze the technical or 
methodical challenges associated with such devices and environments, 
introduce new technical or algorithmic solutions to cope with these 
challenges, or present applications taking advantage of the new 
possibilities.


**** Topics ****

- Data visualization on mobile devices
- Data visualization in multi-display environments
- Data visualization in heterogeneous display environments
- Data visualization on tabletops and surfaces
- Adaptation strategies
- Distributed visualization
- Novel display environments for visualization
- Novel interaction techniques for visualization
- Novel domains for visualization
- Novel applications for visualization
- Human factors of visualization in heterogeneous display environments

*** Submission Procedure ****

Papers submitted to ISVC'11 must not have been previously published and 
must not be currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. A 
complete paper should be submitted in camera-ready format. The length 
should match that intended for final publication. The page limit is 12 
pages. In submitting a paper the author(s) agree that, upon acceptance, 
they will prepare the final manuscript in time for inclusion into the 
proceedings and will present the paper at the symposium.


*** Paper Publication ***

This is a fully refereed symposium. Papers will be reviewed with an 
emphasis on potential to contribute to the state of the art in the 
field. Each paper will receive two-three blind reviews and should not 
contain names or other information revealing authors' identity. 
Selection criteria include accuracy and originality of ideas, clarity 
and significance of results, and presentation quality. All papers 
accepted will appear in the symposium proceedings which will be 
published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science 
(LNCS) series.
