===========================================================================

4th International Symposium on Big Data Visual and Immersive Analytics
(BDVA 2018)

Call for Posters

Konstanz, Germany - October 17th to October 19th, 2018

===========================================================================

The BDVA 2018 Symposium is calling for contributions in the area of Visual
Analytics and Immersive Analytics of Big Data. Submit your work and be part
of a vibrant venue that will bring together an exciting programme with
internationally renowned keynote speakers, special sessions, and workshops:
http://bdva.net

Visual Analytics plays a major role in the analysis and decision-making
processes for science, industry, and government organisations. It is one of
the best ways we have for making sense of large and complex data sets.
Reflecting its history of encouraging research into less-traditional
approaches to visual analytics, this year BDVA has broadened the scope to
include the emerging field of Immersive Analytics. Immersive Analytics aims
to support data understanding and decision making everywhere and by
everyone, working individually or collaboratively. It aims to make embodied
tools that are intuitive, engaging, and make the best possible use of all
sensory channels. This may be achieved through the use of immersive virtual
environment technologies, natural interfaces or responsive analytics, but
is not tied to the use of any particular technology. Immersive Analytics
brings promising opportunities to interact with Big Data coming from
geo-science, biomedical applications, collective behaviour, text mining,
crime analysis, among other application domains.

Symposium topics include but are not limited to:

·        Theoretical Foundations of Immersive Analytics

·        Immersive Storytelling

·        Collaborative Visual and Immersive Analytics

·        Personalized Visual and Immersive Analytics

·        Use of Mixed Reality for Analytics including Situated Analytics

·        Visual, Audio, Haptic, and Multisensory Data Presentation
including Data Physicalization

·        Human-Computer Interaction including Use of Natural Interfaces for
Analytics

·        Analytical Reasoning and Sense-making of Big or Complex Data

·        Scalable Visual and Immersive Analytics including HPC for
Visualisation

·        Responsive Analytic Algorithms for Interactive Data Exploration

·        Big Data Management, Transformation, and Presentation

·        Context-Semantics-driven Visual and Immersive Analytics

·        Processes & Tools for Building Visual and Immersive Analytics
Applications

·        Applications and Case Studies

*Poster Submission Instructions*

Authors are invited to submit poster papers that report work in progress,
explore new problem areas, and new angles on existing work of known
approaches. In addition to every poster, a two-page summary (one additional
page for references) of the work has to be submitted. Please use the VGTC
conference template (http://junctionpublishing.org/vgtc/Tasks/camera.html)
for the summary paper. The posters themselves have no predefined
format. Dimensions of the posters must be A0 (841mm x 1189mm / 33.1’’ x
46.8’’), and only portrait format is acceptable. Posters are not archival
publications. The two-page summary papers will be distributed to the
conference attendees on a USB flash drive. Authors whose posters are
accepted to the conference will be asked to revise the poster and the
summary paper according to the reviewer comments. The poster itself needs
to be brought to the poster session of the conference, and at least one
presenter per poster has to attend the conference.

Please submit your abstracts and manuscripts here:
