[DMANET] EuroCG 2021: 1st Call for Contributions

CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS

======================


EuroCG 2021 will be held April 7–9, 2021 in an online format due to the
COVID-19 pandemic (originally planned to take place in Saint Petersburg,
Russia). EuroCG is an annual workshop that combines a strong scientific
tradition with a friendly and informal atmosphere. The workshop is a forum
where established researchers and students can meet, discuss their work,
present their results, and launch scientific collaborations. We will do our
best to offer a platform for informal communication between the
participants as part of the online format. More information about the event
can be found at http://eurocg21.spbu.ru

Important dates

---------------

Submission deadline: January 11, 2021

Invited speakers

----------------

Anna Lubiw David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science, University of
Waterloo

Janos Pach Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics Hungarian Academy of
Sciences

Gaiane Panina St. Petersburg Institute for Informatics and Automation RAS,
St. Petersburg University

Topics of interest

------------------

Topics of interest cover all aspects of computational geometry, including
but not limited to the following:


- discrete and combinatorial geometry and topology,

- design and analysis of geometric algorithms and data structures,

- implementation and experimental evaluation of geometric algorithms,

- numerical and algebraic issues arising from implementations,

- analysis of geometric configurations,

- geometric modeling, visualization and simulation,

- combinatorial optimization,

- graph drawing,

- structural molecular biology,

- geometric puzzle analysis,

- geographic information systems,

- robotics and virtual worlds,

- computer-aided design and manufacturing.

Best Student Presentation Award

-------------------------------

To recognize the efforts of young researchers to present their work clearly
and elegantly, a Best Student Presentation Award will be voted on by the
EuroCG 2021 attendees.

Submission

----------

We invite authors to submit extended abstracts of their original research.
Submissions must be formatted in LaTeX using a supplied class file, and be
no longer than 175 lines of text. Submissions will be handled through
EasyChair. The submission link will be posted on the EuroCG'21 webpage one
month before the submission deadline.

Acceptance

----------

EuroCG is a non-competitive forum. We will accept all submissions that are
original, correct, well-presented, non-trivial, and in scope. Submissions
should include a sufficient level of detail that an attentive reviewer can
establish correctness of the results. To this end, full proofs can be
placed in a clearly marked appendix. A detailed acceptance policy will be
announced on the website.

Proceedings

-----------

EuroCG does not have formally reviewed proceedings. A booklet of abstracts,
without an ISBN, will be accessible online on the website for the benefit
of the community and must be regarded as a collection of preprints rather
than a formally reviewed selection of papers. Results presented at EuroCG
are expected to appear in other conferences with formal proceedings and/or
in journals. In particular, papers that have been submitted to other
formally reviewed conferences are eligible for presentation at EuroCG,
assuming they have not been presented at a conference or published in a
journal by the date of the conference. Authors of selected papers will be
invited to submit extended versions to a special issue of the Computational
Geometry: Theory and Applications journal.


Authors of accepted submissions are expected to present their work at the
online conference. Failure to do so may result in the removal of the
contribution from the abstract booklet and conference website.
