-
- Visualization '93
- PARALLEL RENDERING SYMPOSIUM
-
-
- Monday and Tuesday, October 25-26, 1993
-
- Red Lion Hotel
- San Jose, California
-
-
- The growing acceptance of parallel computing has led to a recent surge
- of interest in parallel rendering techniques for computer graphics
- applications. In response, a two-day symposium on the subject will be
- held as part of Visualization '93. The symposium will provide a
- high-quality technical program in an informal atmosphere.
-
- Papers are solicited on all aspects of parallel rendering, including,
- but not limited to:
-
- - polygon scan conversion
- - ray tracing
- - radiosity
- - volume rendering
- - constructive solid geometry
- - surface generation
- - scientific visualization
- - massively parallel computation
- - performance analysis
- - I/O and display issues
- - architectural impact on algorithms
-
- Papers are not limited to a visualization context.
-
-
- SPONSORSHIP
-
- The Parallel Rendering Symposium is being held as part of the
- Visualization '93 Conference. The Conference and Symposium are
- sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Computer
- Graphics In Cooperation with ACM SIGGRAPH.
-
-
- SYMPOSIUM FORMAT
-
- In order to foster an informal atmosphere and maximize the exchange of
- ideas, attendance will be limited to 100 people. The technical program
- will include a keynote speaker, refereed papers, and panel and group
- discussions. The symposium will also feature two lunches and a dinner
- reception.
-

- Submission deadline: March 31, 1993
- Notification of acceptance: May 17, 1993
- Final papers due: July 1, 1993 (tentative)

- SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
-
- Authors should submit 5 copies of papers and figures to Tom Crockett,
- ICASE, M.S. 132C, NASA Langley Research Center, Hampton, VA 23681-0001.
- Submissions must be received by March 31, 1993. Late submissions and
- electronic submissions will not be accepted. Submitted drafts must
- include an abstract and keywords, and should not exceed 8,000 words in
- length. Authors should include their affiliations, addresses, telephone
- and FAX numbers, and reliable e-mail addresses. Multi-author papers
- should designate one author as the point of contact.
-
- Each paper will receive a minimum of three reviews. Reviewers' comments
- and notification of acceptance will be conveyed to authors via e-mail by
- June 1, 1993. Camera-ready copies of papers and figures will be due no
- later than July 1, 1993.
-
- Video Submissions: Video materials which will be used in conjunction
- with a paper may also be submitted, but are not required. These will be
- considered along with reviewers' recommendations in making the final
- determination of acceptance. Judging will be on the basis of technical
- content rather than the quality of production. If video is submitted, a
- single copy in standard NTSC VHS format must accompany the paper. To
- reduce shipping and handling costs, video tapes will not be returned.
- Video proceedings will not be published.
