State-of-the-Art Reports
State-of-the-Art Reports (STARs) that provide an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of a special topic of current interest that is related to Computer Graphics will be included in the Eurographics 2010 conference programme. We encourage the submission of STAR proposals on topics that have not yet been covered in any recent previous STAR. A STAR can also address the use of Computer Graphics techniques in a different scientific discipline or in industrial practice. For examples of suitable STAR topics, take a look at the proceedings of recent Eurographics conferences.
At Eurographics 2010, the authors of a STAR will be
given 90 minutes to present the report at a level that
also allows non-experts in the particular domain to
follow this presentation. The conference registration
fee will be waived for one author per accepted STAR.
Authors will be encouraged to subsequently submit the
STAR as a regular contribution to Computer Graphics
Forum.
For any question concerning STAR submissions please
contact the STARs co-chairs by e-mail at
.
Authors should expect to receive a confirmation of
receipt of their proposal and should request
confirmation if one is not received within a day or
two. Some problems have been reported with large
e-mailed attachments (over 3Mb in size). Submitters
might be better advised to e-mail a link to a location
from which the larger document can be downloaded.
Submission Details
STAR proposals (in PDF) should be submitted via email to the STARs co-chairs.
The deadline for the submission of STAR proposals is
October 9th, 2009, with notification of
acceptance on December 8th, 2009. Final versions of
the STARs will have to be due 1st of March, 2010.
A STAR proposal should be, in essence, a short version
of the planned STAR, outlining the topic, documenting
its relation and relevance to computer graphics,
including a planned table of contents and a major
subset of the targeted literature references, as well
as including brief biographies of the authors,
demonstrating their qualification to produce the
proposed STAR. Such a proposal should be 3-5 pages
in length. If the authors have already prepared a
longer version of their intended STAR, they may
contact the STARs co-chairs ahead of the submission
deadline to check for the opportunity of submitting a
longer STAR proposal (in principal appreciated!).
