Call for Contribution

 

The 9th Irish Workshop on Computer Graphics will take place at Trinity College Dublin on the 11th of December 2009. The special theme of the workshop will be "Animate & Illuminate", but we hope to bring together a diverse group of people interested in the theory and applications of Computer Graphics and its intersection with other areas, such as Perception, Games, Physics, Computer Vision, Audio, and Haptics. Please join us in Dublin to interact with academic and industry researchers from Ireland and abroad, share new results, and discuss emerging directions for the field.

 

Invited Speakers

 

Jan Kautz, Virtual Environments and Computer Graphics, University College London.

Bio: Jan is currently an Associate Professor at the University College London in the Virtual Environments and Computer Graphics Group. He received his undergraduate degree from the University of Erlangen-Nürnberg (1999), an MMath from the University of Waterloo (1999), and his PhD from the Max-Planck-Institut für Informatik (2003). He then spent over two and half years as a Post-Doc at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology until 2006, when he moved to UCL. He is particularly interested in real-time rendering, light transport, realistic materials, and image- and video-based rendering, on which he has published many articles at various conferences including ACM SIGGRAPH.

His talk is entitled: Real-Time Illumination.

Nick Gray, Havok, Ireland.

Bio: Nick graduated with a degree in Mathematics from TCD in 1996 and later completed a Research MSc in the Image Synthesis Group at the Computer Science Department in TCD. He joined Havok as programmer #5 in 1999, and over the last 10 years has been involved in core development on Havok's Physics, Animation and AI products, as well as being the Lead Architect on the Developer Relations team in Havok's San Francisco office for 4 years. He is currently a Senior Engineer on the AI team in Dublin and dreams about navigation meshes about once a week.

His talk is entitled: Getting it into the game - taking cutting edge technology from theory to practice.

 

Submission

 

Submissions relating to all aspects of Computer Graphics are invited. We invite papers, 6-8 pages long, in the categories of applications or research. High quality submissions describing work-in-progress will also be considered. Papers must be written and presented in English. The main contribution of the paper should not previously have appeared in, or be submitted to, any other conference or journal. If accepted, you will be expected to deliver an oral presentation at the workshop. All accepted papers will appear in the printed proceedings and there will be a prize for the best paper and the best presentation. Authors of some rejected papers with high potential will be invited to present their work as a poster.

Please send us your submissions in .pdf format by email to: egirl09@scss.tcd.ie. The subject of the email should be "EG Ireland 09 Submission".

The paper should be formatted according to the EG publication style.
