===================== International Conference on Geometric Modeling & Graphics (Previously, Computer Aided Geometric Design Symposium) (GMAG 2003) in co-operation with IEEE Computer Society JULY 16-18, 2003 London, UK. =====================
Aims and Scope: =============== Computer-Aided (CA) techniques for Geometric Modeling (GM) and Computer Graphics (CG) are extremely useful tools in a number of industrial settings. Specifically, the applications of computational geometry and graphical modeling to current problems of designing and manufacturing have grown at a large scale. In addition to its critical importance in the traditional fields of automobile and aircraft manufacturing, shipbuilding, and general product design, more recently, these methods have also proven to be indispensable in a variety of modern industries, including computer vision, robotics, medical imaging, visualization, and even media. The purpose of the GMAG conference is to focus on interdisciplinary methods and affiliate research done among various disciplines with the goal of stimulating views and providing a forum where academicians, researchers, and practitioners can discuss the latest developments linked to Geometric Modeling and Computer Graphics. Papers presenting original research with the theme of "Geometric Modeling and Graphics" are being sought. Scope of the conference topics include (but are not limited to): * Curve and Surface Design * Geometric Modeling * Solid Modeling * Physically Based Modeling * Autonomous Agents * Computer Graphics * Geometric Algorithms * Manufacturing Geometry * Computational Geometry * Reverse Engineering * Computer Aided Design (CAD) * Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) * Font Design * Character Design * Multiresolution Methods * Geometric Transformations * Mesh Processing * Shape Abstraction and Modeling * Shape Analysis and Description * Scientific Visualization * Internet Applications * Computer Animation * Rendering * Multimedia * Non Photo-Realistic Rendering * Virtual Reality * Virtual Environments * Illumination Models * Texture Models * Computer Graphics and the Internet (VRML, Java, etc.) * Artificial Intelligence for Computer Graphics * Softwares * Education, Engineering, Medical, and other Applications Important Dates: ================ * 17 January 2003 - Submission of proposal for symposium * 07 March 2003 - Submission of papers r Submission of tutorials * 05 May 2003 - Submission of camera-ready r Early registration closes * 14 June 2002 - Tutorial Registration Cancellation & Refund date (Last day to register for tutorial sessions - Registration after this is subject to availability) * 09 July 2003 - Pre-Registration date * 15 July 2003 - Tutorial Day * 16-18 July 2003 - Conference Days Program Committee ================= M.

Markus Wacker, University of Tübingen, GERMANY Fujiichi Yoshimoto, Wakayama University, Japan Submission of Papers: ==================== Prospective authors are invited to submit their draft papers electronically by the due date. The length of the Camera-Ready papers (if accepted) will be limited to 7 (IEEE style) pages. Papers must not have been previously published or currently submitted for publication elsewhere. The first page of the draft paper should include: title of the paper, name, affiliation, postal address, E-mail address, telephone number, and Fax number for each author. The first page should also include the name of the author who will be presenting the paper (if accepted) and a maximum of 5 keywords. Proposal for Organizing Technical Sessions: =========================================== Each technical session will have at least 6 paper presentations. The session chairs will be responsible for all aspects of their sessions; including, soliciting papers, reviewing, selecting, etc. THE NAMES OF SESSION CHAIRS WILL APPEAR AS ASSOCIATE EDITORS ON THE COVER OF THE CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS. Proposals to organize technical sessions should include the following information: name and address (+ E-mail) of proposer, title of session, a 100-word description of the topic of the session, and a short description on how the session will be advertised (in most cases, session proposers solicit papers from colleagues and researchers whose work is known to the session proposer). Mail your proposal to M. Sarfraz; E-mail submissions are preferred. Proposals to organize technical sessions should be submitted as soon as possible. Evaluation Process: =================== Papers will be evaluated for originality, significance, clarity, and soundness. Each paper will be refereed by two to three researchers in the topical area. The Camera-Ready papers will be reviewed by one person. Publication: ============ Attendees will have full access to TWO conferences (IV'2003 & GMAG'2003) at the same time. You are invited to submit a draft paper and/or a proposal to organize a technical session. All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society Press. In addition to the hardcopy, it is also planned to publish the papers on a CD. EXTENDED VERSIONS OF THE SELECTED PAPERS WILL BE PUBLISHED IN A POST CONFERENCE EDITED BOOK. Web Site: ========= The GMAG'03 web site is: http://www.graphicslink.demon.co.uk/gmag03/.
