Theory and Practice of Computer Graphics 2003
Organised by EGUK
Call for Papers
The 21st Conference organised by the UK chapter of the
Eurographics Society will be the first Theory and Practice
of Computer Graphics 2003 Conference (TP.CG.03) and takes
place at the University of Birmingham Conference Centre on
3rd to 5th June 2003 with a paper deadline of January 10th
2003. All accepted papers will be published in an IEEE
Computer Society Press Conference Proceedings, available at
the conference.
The aim of this conference is to focus on theoretical and
practical aspects of Computer Graphics and to bring together
top practicioners, users and researchers, which will
hopefully inspire further collaboration between participants
particularly between academia and industry.
The Programme Committee is seeking refereed papers and
work-in-progress reports in all aspects of computer graphics
and its applications. The topics of interest include (but
are not limited to):
computer animation; computer-based art and entertainment;
computational geometry; display technologies; fundamental
algorithms; graphics application systems; graphics
architectures and acceleration hardware; fractal and natural
phenomena; human computer interaction; image processing; web
graphics; volume graphics; modelling methods; rendering
techniques; texture synthesis; medical imaging; scientific
visualization,information visualization; virtual reality and
virtual environments; Internet graphics and collaborative
environments.

===========================================================
Instructions to Authors
=======================
Two types of submissions are invited:
1. Refereed Papers
==================
Full papers must be submitted, which will be refereed by
members of the Programme Committee and appointed
sub-referees. Accepted papers will be published in the
Conference Proceedings, with a clear indication that they
have passed through a full review process.
2. Work-in-Progress Papers
==========================
The Programme Committee also welcomes papers and extended
abstracts that describe work in progress, rather than
completed research. This is also an opportunity to present
novel or controversial ideas, which perhaps are yet to be
fully worked through. In the past, many young researchers
benefited from such opportunities. Each submission will be
reviewed by a small panel in the Programme Committee for its
relevance to the field and suitability for conference
presentation. Accepted full papers in this category will
also be included the Conference Proceedings.
Prospective authors are invited to email full papers of
their work in Postscript (ps) or PDF format by 10th January
2003, to Mark Jones,
Dr. Mark W. Jones
Computer Science Department,
University of Wales Swansea,
Singleton Park,
Swansea,

Please include in each submission information indicating the
contact author, the contact address and the submission
category.
Publication
===========
Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings.
Authors are encouraged to submit colour images of diagrams
and illustrations that are used in their paper. These images
will be collated and included in an accompanying CD.
Camera ready copies, if paper is accepted, are required by
14th March 2003.
Young Researchers Forum
=======================
This is a special session that was introduced in the 2000
conference, and it is designed for the young researcher to
present the work proposed for and carried out within their
research programme. We welcome submissions from any
postgraduate researcher for whom there is a research element
in their higher degree submission (viz. MA/MSc and PhD/DPhil
students).
The format of submissions is the same as Work-in-Progress
papers, but special considerations will be given to the
nature of the postgraduate programme.
It is intended for this forum to provide a less formal
platform where innovative ideas can easily be aired and
discussed, and that the young researcher can gain valuable
feedback from more experienced practitioners in the field.
Best Paper Award
================
The Ken Brodlie Prize (worth £50 and a bottle of malt
whisky) will be awarded to the author(s) of the best paper
on the basis of both the written paper and its presentation.
The Terry Hewitt Prize for Best Research Student Paper
======================================================
Following the introduction of this new prize at the 2000
conference, the Terry Hewitt Prize will again be awarded to
the best research student on the basis of both the written
paper and its presentation. All papers submitted by Master
students and Ph.D students will be eligible for this prize.
Important Dates

January 10th - Submission Deadline
February 20th - Notification of Acceptance issued
March 14th - Submission of CRCs
2nd April - Early registration discounts available
