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

The Eurographics Symposium on Parallel Graphics and Visualization 
(EGPGV) aims to foster the exchange of experiences and knowledge on 
exploiting and defining new trends in parallel graphics and 
visualization. This area is of growing importance due to the rapidly 
increasing availability of multi-core CPUs, GPUs, and cluster systems. 
Computationally demanding and data-intensive applications in graphics 
and visualization are strongly affected by this trend and require novel, 
efficient parallel solutions.

EGPGV 2020 will be collocated with Eurographics and EuroVis 2020, held 
May 25-29, 2020, in Norrköping, Sweden. The proceedings of EGPGV will be 
published in the Eurographics Proceedings Series and in the Eurographics 
Digital Library. Best papers from the EGPGV symposium will be invited to 
submit an extended journal version to IEEE Transactions on Visualization 
and Computer Graphics.

EGPGV seeks papers on graphics and visualization that involve any type 
of parallel computing, and/or focus on very large data sets. Papers on 
techniques, data structures, algorithms, systems, and applications are 
welcomed. Parallel computing is broadly defined, including 
high-performance computing and cloud environments, (multi-)GPU computing 
and heterogeneous, hybrid architectures, and shared and/or distributed 
memory architectures. Further, papers focused on processing very large 
data sets (either for visualization or graphics) are welcomed, even if 
they do not have a particular focus on parallelism.

Typical symposium topics include:
- Computationally and data intensive rendering
- Scientific visualization (e.g., volume rendering, flow, and tensor 
visualization)
- Information visualization and visual analytics
- In situ analytics and in situ visualization
- Out-of-core processing of large data sets for visualization or graphics
- Simulations for virtual environments (physics-based animation, 
collision detection, acoustics)
- Mesh processing, level-of-detail, and geometric methods
- Visual computing (image- and video-based rendering, image processing 
and exploitation, segmentation)
- Scheduling, memory management, and data coherence
- Parallelization approaches and algorithms, such as MapReduce
- Database-related methods, algorithms or approaches, and query-based 
visualization
- Advanced hardware for data handling or visualization
- Large and high resolution displays, virtual environments
- Scientific, engineering, and industrial applications
- Data analytics on large scientific data sets
- Machine learning as applied to parallel graphics, visualization, 
and/or large data analytics

In general, appropriate topics for the symposium fall into one of four 
categories:
   (1) parallel graphics,
   (2) rendering of very large data sets,
   (3) parallel visualization and analytics, and
   (4) processing of large data sets for visualization or analytics.

EGPGV again calls for Full Papers (8 to 10 pages) and Short Papers (up 
to 4 pages) in Eurographics format.
