Graph Drawing is concerned with the geometric representation of graphs
and networks and is motivated by those applications where it is crucial
to visualize structural information as graphs.
Since graph drawing methods form the algorithmic core of network
visualization, bridging the gap between theoretical advances and
implemented solutions is an important aspect of the conference.
Indeed, advances in graph drawing are important in several technological
areas such as Web computing, e-commerce, VLSI circuit design,
information systems, software engineering, computational cartography,
visual interfaces, bioinformatics, and networking.
Researchers and practitioners working on any aspect of graph drawing
are invited to contribute and participate.
The range of topics includes, but is not limited to:
* visualization of networks from application areas such as the
life sciences, social sciences, geography, engineering,
business intelligence, or communications
* software systems for graph visualization
* interfaces for interacting with graphs
* graph drawing algorithms
* geometric graphs
* planarity and topological graph theory
* graph theory and optimization on graphs
Invited Speakers:
-----------------
Peter Eades, University of Sydney, Australia
Carsten Thomassen, Technical University of Denmark, Lyngby, Denmark
Accepted Papers:
----------------
A list of accepted papers and the preliminary program can be found on
the conference Web site at http://www.graphdrawing.org/gd2010/
Call for Participation:
-----------------------
GD will take place on the campus of the University of Konstanz, overseeing
beautiful Lake Constance. In addition to the main conference, a satellite
event will be held on Tuesday, September 21. This is
Call for Posters:
-----------------
Submissions of posters on graph drawing and related areas are also
solicited. The poster session will provide a forum for the communication
of late-breaking research results (which may also appear elsewhere) to
the graph drawing community. Posters should be accompanied by an abstract
(up to 2 pages); abstracts of accepted posters will be included in the
conference proceedings.
Call for PhD Colloquium submissions:
------------------------------------
PhD students will have an opportunity to present and exhibit their ongoing
or planned work in a dedicated workshop prior to the main conference.
We solicit submissions consisting of a poster and a status summary of
two pages. See http://www.graphdrawing.org/gd2010/progd.html for details.
Call for GD Contest submissions:
--------------------------------
Following the tradition of previous conferences, a graph drawing contest
will be held. See http://www.graphdrawing.de/contest2010/ for details.
