[DMANET] Call for Papers: 26th Canadian Conference on Computational Geometry (CCCG 2014)

The 26th Canadian Conference on Computational Geometry will be held in
Halifax, Nova Scotia, on August 11-13, 2014.

SCOPE

CCCG focuses on the design of efficient algorithms, the development of
software, and the study of the mathematical foundations of
computational problems whose formulations involve geometric
constraints. The field of computational geometry is motivated by
problems from a broad range of application areas, as diverse as
computer graphics and animation, computer vision, computer-aided
design and manufacturing, geographic information systems, pattern
recognition, wireless communications, robotics, protein folding, urban
planning, graph drawing, or statistical analysis, to name just a few.
Authors are invited to submit papers describing original research of
theoretical or practical significance in computational, combinatorial
and discrete geometry, as well as related areas.

AUDIENCE

CCCG is an international forum, accessible to a broad community of
researchers, to disseminate and discuss new theoretical and applied
results in discrete and computational geometry. The intended audience
for this conference includes graduate and undergraduate students,
researchers in the area, and members of industry whose work involves
geometric computation.

SUBMISSION DETAILS

Submissions should not exceed six pages, must be submitted
electronically, and must be prepared using LaTeX. Authors who feel
that additional details are necessary should include a clearly marked
appendix, which will be read at the discretion of the Program
Committee. Submission details, including the appropriate LaTeX
template, are available on the conference website. Simultaneous
submission to another conference or journal is not allowed. Authors of
accepted papers are expected to present their papers at the
conference. Failure to do so will result in removal of the paper from
the proceedings.

PROCEEDINGS

Proceedings will be published online on the conference website. There
is no page limit for papers published in the proceedings.

SPECIAL ISSUE

Selected papers from the conference will be invited for submission to
a special issue of the journal Computational Geometry: Theory and
Applications.

STUDENT SUPPORT

CCCG has a tradition of being welcoming to students. It is expected
that there will be partial travel support for students and postdocs.
