International Symposium on Smart Graphics
www.smartgraphics.org
March 21st-23rd 2001
IBM T.J. Watson Research Center
Hawthorne, NY, USA
Advances and breakthroughs in the area of Computer Graphics have made
visual media a major ingredient of the modern user interface, and it
is likely that graphics will play a dominant role in the way people
communicate and interact with computers in the future. Especially the
evolution of computing towards more and more pervasive and distributed
devices pose new and challenging problems for the effective use of
graphics. Intelligent behavior and graphics will provide the technical
core of next generation interfaces. But in order to make those
interfaces successful, principles and findings from Cognitive
Psychology and Graphics Design are equally important to reflect the
user's needs and abilities.
Until recently there has been very little overlap between the
Cognitive Psychology, Computer Graphics, AI and Graphics Design
communities. The Smart Graphics Symposium intends to close these gaps.
Recent advances in Computer Graphics have allowed AI researchers to
integrate graphics in their systems (without being burdened by low-
level issues such as image rendering) and graphics acceleration
hardware has become affordable and is now available for a broad range
of platforms. On the other hand, many AI techniques have matured to
the point of being usable by non specialists. Furthermore, these very
techniques are likely to be the vehicle by which both principles from
Graphics Design, and the results of research in cognitive aspects of
visual representations will be integrated in next generation graphical
interfaces.
