[cfp at vgtc.org]

 IEEE VIS 2014http://ieeevis.org Paris, France9-14 November 2014  CFP:
Meetups We invite you to submit proposals for informal meetups on
scientific visualization, information visualization, visual analytics,
application areas, or related topics.  Meetups: Meetups (previously known
as BOFs or Birds of a Feather) are an excellent forum to discuss a wide
range of topics related to visualization. For example, if you are an
experienced researcher, consider submitting a proposal to share your
knowledge in an informal setting with conference participants. Proposals
devoted to a particular discipline's methods and cross disciplinary
proposals are both welcome. For example, some recent meetup meetings
included opportunities to meet and discuss topics related to blogging about
visualization, the BioVis contest, and the connection between art and
science. VIS 2014 is eager to expand its meetup sessions and will consider
proposals for each day and evening of the conference, given room
availability. VIS2014 meetups are public and open to all attendees. Meetup
organizers need to be registered at the conference for at least the day of
the meetup. Proposal format: A meetup proposal should include a title, a
brief description of the topic to be addressed, and a list of prospective
attendees. The proposal should be no longer than two pages in length.
Meetup proposals should be sent to the Meetup Chairs at
meetups at ieeevis.org. Impromptu meetups: We also encourage impromptu
meetups to be organized during the conference itself. Please contact the
chairs by email or in person during the conference in order to secure a
conference room and time slot.  Networking: To find other people
interested in VIS 2014 meetups on social media, please use the hashtag
#vis2014meetup. IMPORTANT DATES: Deadline: Sep. 26th 2014. SUBMISSIONS:
