[Ieee_vis] CFP: Eurographics 2017 Call for State of the Art Reports

[Victor Ostromoukhov]

===== Apology for any duplication =====

*Eurographics 2017 Call for State of the Art Reports*
     

*Accepted STARs will be published in Computer Graphics Forum*

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.

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.

For any questions concerning STAR submissions please contact the STARs 
co-chairs Matthias Zwicker and Victor Ostromoukhov :

      Submission Details

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.

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.

Electronic submissions of STARs is mandatory and will be conducted using 
the Submission and Review Management System (SRMv2) 
<https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/EG_2017STARs>.

The deadline for the submission of STAR proposals is *23:59 UTC/GMT*, 
*September *17**^th * 2016*, with notification of conditional acceptance 
on **December 23**^rd *, 2016*. The revised version of conditionally 
accepted 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.

We strongly encourage the authors to submit a short abstract before 
September 1st, 2016.
