The Eighth IEEE/SIGGRAPH Symposium on Volume Visualization and Graphics (VolVis '02) will be held October 2002 in conjunction with IEEE Visualization '2002. Papers containing original work in all areas of volume visualization and graphics are solicited. Of special interest are papers dealing with very large volumes and papers dealing with volume graphics modeling and rendering.
 

Critical Dates

March 29	Papers Due by midnight
June 6	Notification of acceptance
August 05	Final papers due to Production Editor
October 28	Symposium commences

Advanced program for the Symposium, as well as the Conference, can be found here.

The deadline for submissions is March 29, 2002. Final papers will be limited to 9 pages: 8 proceedings pages plus one page with color figures. In the printed version of the proceedings these 8 proceedings pages will appear in greylevel. However, you are strongly encouraged to submit a full color version as well, to be included in the digital proceedings on the conference CD-ROM and to be published in the ACM and IEEE Digital Library. You may choose to follow the paper format guidelines specified at the ACM SIGGRAPH "Document Preparation for Conference Proceedings". A VolVis style file for LaTex, slightly modified from SIGGRAPH style (by Stefan Roettger, University of Stuttgart), together with an example file can be downloaded here . There are two alternative ways to submit a contribution.

The preferred method is to submit all your material over the web via http://www.cs.sunysb.edu/~volvis02/START/www/submit.html. Videos should be in MPEG format and images in JPEG or TIFF.

Or, you may choose to send five copies with any accompanying NTSC video to the following postal address :
