CALL FOR PAPERS
2nd International Symposium on Visual Computing (ISVC06)
Harrah's Hotel and Casino
Lake Tahoe, Nevada
November 6-8 2006
http://www.isvc.net
The purpose of the International Symposium on Visual Computing (ISVC)
is to provide a common forum for researchers, scientists, engineers and
practitioners throughout the world to present their latest research
findings, ideas, developments and applications in the broader area of
visual computing. ISCV seeks papers describing contributions to the
state
of the art and state of the practice in the broad field of visual
computing.
The symposium is structured around four central areas of visual
computing: (1) computer vision, (2) computer graphics, (3) virtual
reality, and (4) visualization. In particular, we are interested in
receiving papers that combine technologies from two or more of these
areas.
ISVC06 will consist of invited and contributed presentations dealing
with
all aspects of visual computing. In addition to the main technical
program, the symposium will include several keynote speakers, posters
sessions, and special tracks. 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 (pending approval). A
$500
"best paper award" will be given to the author(s) of the best paper by
Siemens .
Special Tracks
--------------
Proposals are invited for special tracks on any topic relevant to the
