[compgeom-announce] CFP ISVD 2009 - Sixth Annual International Symposium on Voronoi Diagrams in Science and Engineering, Technical University of Denmark, Kongens Lyngby, Denmark



Dear Colleagues,

Please find below the Call For Papers for the Sixth Annual  
International Symposium on Voronoi Diagrams in Science and Engineering  
(ISVD 2009), to be held at the Technical University of Denmark,  
Kongens Lyngby, Denmark, from the 23rd to the 26th of June 2009.

We would appreciate it greatly, if you would distribute it to your  
colleagues and/or graduate students.

Many thanks in advance.

Yours truly,

François Anton and Jakob Andreas Bærentzen.

CALL FOR PAPERS:
The International Symposium on Voronoi Diagrams in Science and  
Engineering (ISVD) is the premier conference on Voronoi diagrams and  
their applications to many different scientific and engineering  
disciplines to solve real-world problems.

Authors are invited to submit papers (up to 10 pages) describing  
original research related to the following topics:
- Mathematical aspects of Voronoi diagrams and Delaunay graphs,
- Generalizations of Voronoi diagrams and Delaunay graph,
- Algorithms and implementation of Voronoi diagrams/Delaunay graphs,
- Conceptual and logical data models based on Voronoi diagrams,
- Terrain modeling and meshes using Delaunay graphs,
- Visualization, animation and morphing using Voronoi diagrams,
- Pattern analysis and recognition using Voronoi diagrams,
- Motion planning, navigation, collision detection and obstacle  
avoidance using Voronoi diagrams,
- Network analysis and communi-cation using Voronoi diagrams,
- Clustering using nearest-neighbor approach and weighted distance  
function and Voronoi diagram,
- Computer modeling and simulation using Voronoi diagrams,
- Spatial and temporal statistics using Voronoi diagrams,
- Image processing using Voronoi diagrams,
- Biological, molecular and physical modeling using Voronoi diagrams,
- Voronoi diagrams in astronomy, bioinformatics, geography, chemistry,  
material science, renewable energy, location science, solid modeling  
and operations research.

Authors are also invited to submit papers (up to 10 pages) describing  
original research in bioinformatics related to Voronoi diagrams,  
Delaunay graphs or more generally computational geometry and topology.
These papers will be presented at a special session on bioinformatics,  
which will be held the full day of June 25th, that will be chaired by  
Associate Professor Thomas Hamelryck, who is the group leader of the  
Structural Bioinformatics research group in the Bioinformatics Center  
of the University of Copenhagen.
Authors are also invited to submit Voronoi art posters (up to A0  
format) or videos exhibiting nice applications of Voronoi diagrams to  
be presented on June 26th as a special Voronoi art exhibition.

All submitted papers will be referred for quality, originality and  
relevance by the International Programme Committee (scientific  
committee).
All submissions will be done online using the EasyChair conference  
system. A link will be available from the symposium web page.

All accepted papers will be published in the proceedings of the  
symposium (with ISBN), to be published by the IEEE Computer Society.  
They will be available at a later date than the date of the symposium.
Abstracts of the accepted and invited contributions will be available  
at the Symposium. All papers will be available online.

ISVD 2009 will take place at the Technical University of Denmark,  
Kongens Lyngby, Denmark.

Organisers: François Anton and Jakob Andreas Bærentzen (DTU- 
Informatics).

The International Symposium on Voronoi Diagrams in Science and  
Engineering was initiated in 2004 by Professor Kokichi Sugihara,  
University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan. Since then, the ISVD conference has  
taken place every year: in Seoul, Korea; Banff, Alberta, Canada;  
Glamorgan, Wales, U.K. and Kiev, Ukraine.
