[Ieee_vis] 3rd CFP: Computer Graphics and Visual Computing (CGVC) 2018 (Deadline Extended: 22 June)

Wed Jun 6 13:02:02 CEST 2018

======================================================
COMPUTER GRAPHICS & VISUAL COMPUTING 2018 (CGVC2018)
The 36th Annual Conference organised by the UK chapter of the Eurographics
Association,
13-14 September 2018, Swansea University, UK
http://www.eguk.org.uk/CGVC2018/
======================================================

The annual EGUK conference is a meeting place for all those in the UK
working in computer graphics and visual computing (including, Computer
Graphics and Vision, Information and Scientific Visualization, and Visual
Analytics). It attracts researchers from across the country and from
further afield.

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).

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

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.

• 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.

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.
