IEEE International Conference on Shape Modeling and Applications 2008 (Shape Modeling International 2008 or SMI'08) will be held on June 4-6, 2008, in Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, New York, USA.

The IEEE International Conference on Shape Modeling and Applications (Shape Modeling International, or SMI) provides a premium international forum for the dissemination of new mathematical theories and novel computational techniques for modeling, simulating, and processing digital representations of shapes and their properties to a community of researchers, developers, practitioners, and students in academia and industry across a wide range of fields.

In 2001, SMI has merged with the Implicit Surface Workshop and is now run as an annual event alternating between Asia, Europe, and America. SMI'08 will immediately follow the ACM Solid and Physical Modeling Symposium 2008 (SPM'08), to be held on June 2-4, 2008, in Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, New York, USA. Both SPM'08 and SMI'08 events will be co-located in Stony Brook, and are parts of the 2008 Stony Brook Modeling Week that features International Joint Convention on Shapes and Solids (ICSS'08). Stony Brook Modeling Week will be hosted by the Center for Visual Computing (CVC) and Computer Science Department of Stony Brook University and will be chaired by Professor Hong Qin.
