CALL FOR CONTEST SUBMISSIONS
============================

IEEE Symposium on Large-Scale Data Analysis and Visualization (LDAV)
VisWeek 2012 in Seattle, Washington
14-15 October 2012

LDAV
The Symposium on Large-Scale Data Analysis and Visualization (LDAV) brings together domain scientists,  data analytics and visualization researchers, HPC specialists, and database technology providers, fostering innovative solutions to the unique problems encountered in analysis and visualization of extremely large-scale data. 

The LDAV Visualization Contest focuses on the area of visualization of extremely large datasets. The goal is to device a visualization or a visualization algorithm that allows exploration of a chosen HPC dataset. The primary challenges will the size of the computational grid, the number of co-located variables, and the time series.

The contest aims at demonstrating how visualization algorithms can be scaled to very large computational infrastructures and handle extremely large datasets. It shows how techniques at the forefront of visualization research can have practical impacts upon real world problems.

PARTICIPATION

The contest is open to everyone except contest organizers, judges, and sponsors. We invite submissions from individuals or teams, from industry or academia. See the http://www.ldav.org/viscontest.html web page for details on submission requirements.

Chris Johnson and Mike Papka - Symposium Co-Chairs

Roger Barga, Hanspeter Pfister, and David Rogers - Program Co-Chairs

Sean Ahern, Oliver Rübel - Visualization Co-Chairs
