[Compgeom-announce] 16th Fall Workshop on Computational Geometry, Call for Papers

[Ileana Streinu <streinu@scinix.smith.edu>]

CALL FOR PAPERS.
16th Annual Fall Workshop on Computational Geometry
Nov 10-11, 2006 Smith College
URL: http://cs.smith.edu/~streinu/FwCG/

The aim of this workshop is to bring together students and researchers 
from academia and industry, to stimulate collaboration on problems of 
common interest arising in geometric computations. Topics to be covered 
include, but are not limited to:

	Algorithmic methods in geometry
	Animation of geometric algorithms
	Bio-geometry
	Combinatorial geometry
	Computer-aided design
	Computer graphics
	Computational topology
	Experimental studies of geometric algorithms
	Graph drawing
	Implementation issues for geometric algorithms
	Motion generation, folding and unfolding
	and more ... (see the web site)

Following the tradition of the previous Fall Workshops on Computational 
Geometry, the format of the workshop will be informal, extending over two 
days (Friday-Saturday), with several breaks scheduled for discussions. 
This year we also plan to include a Poster session. In addition, there 
will be a special event, a 3D Printer Demo run by Joe O'Rourke, an open 
problems session and several invited talks. We are also experimenting with 
offering an optional, additional event on the third day (Sunday 12 
November), by hosting a special Rigidity Theory Day.

Submission:

Authors are invited to submit abstracts for talks to be given at the 
workshop. Please send an abstract (up to 2 pages) and, if available, a 
draft of a paper. Because there are no formal proceedings for the 
workshop, submission of material submitted to a refereed conference is 
allowed and encouraged.

The 2-page abstract, describing the technical contributions of the paper, 
should be submitted by the deadline following the instructions posted on 
the Workshop's web site. In addition, and fully optional, the authors may 
submit a full paper, but not as a replacement for the 2-page abstract.


Important dates:

Submission Deadline:                    September 22
Announcement of accepted abstracts:     October 6
Final Abstracts and pre-registration:   October 27
