[Infovis] Call for Posters (EuroVis)

[Tobias Isenberg]

Call for EuroVis 2017 Posters
=============================

URL: http://eurovis2017.virvig.es/index.php/for-submitters/posters

The posters track of the 2017 European Conference on Visualization 
(EuroVis) will present late-breaking results, work in progress, and 
follow-up extensions or evaluations of existing methods. In particular, 
it provides young researchers, especially postgraduate students, with 
valuable opportunities to receive feedback from other researchers and 
engage in stimulating discussions. A EuroVis poster may describe a piece 
of work in any aspect of visualization. For directly submitted posters, 
we particularly encourage summary reports of collaborative projects, 
work in progress, and application case studies.

Important Dates
---------------

Submission deadline:      April 7, 2017
Notification deadline:    April 21, 2017
Camera-ready deadline:    April 28, 2017
Conference:               June, 12-16

Submission
----------

We solicit poster submissions in the form of a sketch (i.e., an extended 
abstract of at most 2 pages in the EuroVis poster format, with an 
additional page allowed for references only; download the LaTeX2e 
template here). Please make sure that an image embedded in your abstract 
or poster does not contain transparent pixels (i.e., an alpha channel of 
a transparent color) because this may lead to problems when the 
resulting PDF is displayed or printed.

The poster draft can be added as additional material but is not 
mandatory for the submission. Submissions can also include supplementary 
material such as videos or executable programs, up to a limit of 50MB 
for the entire submission, including the PDF files. We encourage the use 
of digital videos to support poster submissions, particularly if part 
of, or all of the work covers interactive techniques. Please use only 
the most common video codecs such as MP4 to maximize the chances that 
the reviewers can view it.

You also need to provide a complete list of authors when submitting your 
poster so that members of the program committee can avoid conflicts of 
interest during reviewer assignment. All authors must be specified in 
the submission system at the time of the submission.

Posters are to be submitted using the PCS submission system at 
https://precisionconference.com/~vgtc/.

The posters will be peer-reviewed in a one-stage single-blind process. 
We expect that the submissions will clearly discuss novel and 
significant contributions. The reviewing will be based primarily on the 
sketch content but will consider other materials if provided.

Poster presentation
-------------------

Accepted poster will be presented at the poster session of the 
conference. The final posters should be printed on paper no larger than 
paper size A0 portrait (84.1 cm x 118.9 cm = 33.1 in x 46.8 in, cf. 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_size). At least one author of an 
accepted poster must register for and attend the conference to present 
the work. Authors will also be required to present a brief half-minute 
summary of their talk at the opening fast-forward session.

Poster/abstract publication
---------------------------

Both a PDF version of the poster and the extended abstract will be 
included on the conference USB stick and also in the EG digital library 
with a DOI. However, publication in the EG digital library can be 
omitted on request.

Traditionally, the material in a poster/sketch can later be reused by 
the original authors for a more extensive publication (e.g., a full 
paper) with more detailed content and mature results. This should not be 
considered self-plagiarism. However, as posters/sketches are citable, 
researchers are encouraged to acknowledge novel ideas and results 
presented in posters/sketches.
