In contrast to previous years, double-blind reviewing is optional, not required: authors may choose to disclose their identities to the reviewers. The reviewing process does not consider anonymity as a factor. The process will attempt to preserve anonymity of authors of anonymized submissions. However, the program committee, which is responsible for half of the reviews, will know the authors of submissions reviewed by them. This is required for selecting reviewers without conflict of interests. Authors have the option of submitting additional material with their submissions. Supplementary materials, such as videos and supporting data, are encouraged. For papers that have previously been reviewed for other venues and have been rejected or withdrawn, the authors are strongly encouraged to provide the original submission with a cover letter describing the changes they have made to comply with reviewers' comments and requests. All full papers accepted to EuroVis appear in a special issue of Computer Graphics Forum, containing the conference proceedings, and will appear at the same time in the Eurographics digital library. EuroVis submissions and papers are subject to the pre-print and self-archiving policies of the Computer Graphics Forum journal. Details are available from the journal web site: https://authorservices.wiley.com/author-resources/Journal-Authors/open-acce… Plan S Compliance EuroVis publishes all its material in the Eurographics Digital Library, and some material also in cooperation with Wiley Computer Graphics Forum (Full Papers, STAR Reports). The Eurographics Publication Board, Eurovis Steering Committee, and Eurovis Full Paper Chairs are aware of these questions, and state the following: * Publishing in the Eurographics Digital Library is Plan-S compliant. * Publishing with Wiley Computer Graphics Forum is Plan-S compliant in many cases, due to so-called transformational agreements between Wiley and national funding agencies and/or universities. In case of questions for clarification, please contact plan-S(a)eurovis.org and we will help to find a solution. We look forward very much to receiving your work for EuroVis. Abstracts and full papers are submitted using the Precision Conference System (PCS): https://new.precisionconference.com/eurovis24a. Please select Society: Eurographics, Conference/Journal: EuroVis 2024, Track: EuroVis 2024 Papers. Submission of an abstract is mandatory by the abstract deadline, with completed papers due on by the full paper deadline. Submissions will not be accepted if an abstract is not submitted by the abstract deadline. Abstract submissions require the title, authors, paper type, abstract, and keywords in the form. The paper title and authors may not be changed after the abstract deadline. The remaining fields (the document, additional material) are submitted by the full paper deadline. Please note that EuroVis accepted full papers are published as a regular-length journal article, so submitting just an abstract is not sufficient. Submitters need to choose keywords and categories appropriate for their paper as this information is used in reviewer selection. New to EuroVis 2024. In contrast to the previous edition, we will no longer have a rebuttal phase for the full paper track. However, authors have the opportunity to reach out to the paper chairs after the first round reviews in case reviewers have made clear errors or if the reasons for rejection are not provided.

EuroVis 2024 - Call for State of the Art Reports (STARs)
by Andreas Kerren 25 Sep '23

25 Sep '23

Dear colleagues, apologies for cross-posting. We invite submissions of high-quality State of the Art Reports (STAR) to be presented at the EuroVis 2024 conference (https://eurovis.org/) and published in the Computer Graphics Forum journal. The EuroVis 2024 conference will be held in Odense, Denmark on May 27-31, 2024; please see https://www.eurovis.org/eurovis/tracks-and-submissions for additional details. The STAR submissions go through a two-stage process, and the deadline for the first stage, i.e., submissions of STAR sketches of two pages (+references, +bibliography), is just around the corner on October 16, 2023, and we look forward to receiving your submissions, details below. For any questions, please contact us at stars(a)eurovis.org Best wishes, Christoph, Andreas, and Renata - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - EuroVis 2024 - Call for State of the Art Reports (STARs) ** Submissions (STAR sketches) due: October 16, 2023 ** State-of-the-Art Reports (STARs) are intended to provide up-to-date and comprehensive surveys on topics of interest to the visualization research community. We encourage the submission of STARs on topics that have not yet been covered in any recent STAR or other survey [1]. We welcome submissions that introduce emerging areas of research that are of relevance and interest to visualization research, as well as proposals on more traditional visualization topics. We also welcome contributions from related disciplines and application areas demonstrating contributions to, or benefits from, the area of visualization including, but not limited to, visual computing, computer graphics, human-computer interaction, virtual reality, image processing, computer vision, psychology, geography, chemistry, computational fluid dynamics, data analysis, computational sciences, medicine, biology, economy, social science, etc. All accepted EuroVis STAR reports will be published in the Computer Graphics Forum journal. ** Important Dates ** - Submission of STAR Sketch: October 16, 2023 (two pages, +references, +bibliography) - Invitation for full STAR submission: November 6, 2023 - Submission of full STAR: January 8, 2024 - Full STAR notification: March 4, 2024 - Second round submission: March 25, 2024 - Second review notification: April 8, 2024 - Camera-ready deadline: April 22, 2024 All deadlines are at 23:59 GMT on the date indicated. ** Instructions ** As part of the acceptance process for Computer Graphics Forum, STARs will undergo a multi-stage review process where authors first submit a 2-page STAR Sketch that they receive preliminary feedback on, followed by a full STAR submission. Submission of the STAR Sketch and full report is mandatory and will be conducted using the Precision Conference System (PCS). For detailed paper preparation and submission instructions please refer to the submission guidelines below. Upon acceptance, we aim to schedule each STAR as an approximately 45 minute presentation (subject to the schedule management of the EuroVis 2024 program). In any circumstance, a STAR presentation will be given a longer time slot than that of a full paper. ** STAR Sketch Submission ** A STAR Sketch briefly describes the planned STAR by outlining the topic, discussing its relevance to the visualization community, providing the planned structure and outline of the STAR together with all key references, and short biographies of the authors. The length of a STAR Sketch main text is limited to two pages. To demonstrate the relevant expertise needed to produce the proposed STAR, brief biographies of all authors are required as supplementary material. References and short biographies are considered supplementary pages and are not counted within the two page limit. Authors receive feedback on their sketches to help improve the submission and to inform their decisions whether to progress to the Full STAR submission stage. ** Full STAR Submission ** In the next stage, authors are required to submit a full STAR. There is no strict maximum length for full submissions. However, it is unusual for STARs to exceed 20 pages (excluding references). Full STAR submissions will then undergo a single blind, two-stage review process, similar to that of regular papers submitted to Computer Graphics Forum, where 3-4 external experts on the respective topic will evaluate the STAR. ** STAR Chairs ** - Christoph Garth, University of Kaiserslautern-Landau, Germany - Andreas Kerren, Linköping University, Sweden - Renata G. Raidou, TU Wien, Austria For any questions concerning State-of-the-Art Report submissions, please contact the STAR chairs at stars(a)eurovis.org. ** Submission Guidelines ** Since all accepted STARs will be published in Computer Graphics Forum, the submission process uses a multiple-stage reviewing process. The submission procedure is as follows: - Submit a STAR Sketch by October 16th, 2023. The length of a STAR Sketch main text is limited to 2 pages. References and short biographies are considered supplementary pages and are not counted within the two-page limit. The format of the sketch should follow the format specified in the formatting instructions for the STAR below. STAR Sketches will be reviewed by the STAR IPC and comments on suitability and relevance will be provided on November 6th, 2023. According to the feedback given by the IPC members, the authors can submit a full STAR by January 8th, 2024. The requirements for EuroVis 2024 STARs follow the EUROGRAPHICS policy on STAR length. We do not impose strict maximum lengths for submitted STARs. However, it is unusual for STARs to exceed 20 pages (in CGF latex style) including all figures and tables, but excluding references. There is no limit as to the number of references or the number of pages for references. STARs should only be as long as their content justifies. Reviewers might rate a submission lower if it is perceived as being unnecessarily long. Authors are encouraged to use supplementary documents to provide extra content. To submit, please go to “submissions in progress” on PCS. Full STAR submissions will then undergo a single blind, two-stage review process, similar to that of regular papers submitted to Computer Graphics Forum, where 3-4 external experts on the respective topic will evaluate the STAR. Once your full STAR submission has been accepted or conditionally accepted, submit your revised version together with a cover letter detailing your changes by March 25th, 2024. To do so, please go to “submissions in progress” in PCS. The camera-ready version is due on April 22nd, 2024. ** Formatting Instructions ** The sketch as well as the full version submission of the STAR should be submitted as a PDF file using the EuroVis 2024 LaTeX2e Style template. The template will be made available soon. On Overleaf, this template can be imported easily by selecting “New Project” -> “Upload Project” and uploading the zip file. Use EGauthorGuidelines-eurovis24-star.tex for your submission. Please make sure that images embedded in your paper do not contain transparent pixels (i.e., an alpha channel of a transparent color), because this will lead to problems when the resulting PDF is displayed or printed. Submissions can also include supplementary material such as videos or executable programs. The server will accept uploads of at most 200 MB, so multiple files of over 200 MB must be submitted separately. Please use only the most common video codecs (e.g., MP4 format using the H.264 codec) to maximize the chances that the reviewers can see it. STAR Sketches and full STARs are submitted using the Precision Conference Submission System (PCS). **** Camera Ready Version **** In order to submit the camera ready version to EuroVis 2024, authors should prepare their submissions as a PDF file using the EuroVis 2024 LaTeX2e Style. Please ensure that the option \SpecialIssuePaper is used. Authors of accepted papers are also requested to fill in the Exclusive License Agreement (one per paper) and send the signed document to s.behnke(a)eg.org. Common mistakes when creating the final version of the paper are: Headlines are too long: besides the running headlines, there has to be space for the page numbers. Please shorten the headline to accommodate for page numbers. Formatting of figure captions: “Figure <number>:” should be bold, and the caption should be set in italics. This is often caused by overwriting the default settings when using the figure, caption, or subfigure packages. Try using \captionsetup{labelfont=bf,textfont=it}) ** Author Guidelines ** A state-of-the-art report submitted to EuroVis 2024 must be original, unpublished work. Any work that has previously been published or has simultaneously been submitted in a substantially similar form to any other conference or journal will be rejected. All STARs accepted to EuroVis 2024 appear in a special issue of Computer Graphics Forum, containing the conference proceedings, and will appear at the same time in the Eurographics Digital Library. At EuroVis 2024, the authors of a STAR will be invited to present their report at a level that also allows non-experts in the particular domain to follow. We plan to schedule each STAR as an approximate 45-minute presentation (subject to the schedule management of the EuroVis 2024 program, but ensuring that STAR presentations will be given a longer time slot than those of full papers). At least one author of an accepted paper must register and attend the conference to present the work, and authors will also be required to submit a 25-second video preview summarizing their work and eventually present a brief (less than one-minute) summary of their talk at the opening papers preview session (also called papers fast-forward). Contributions must be written and presented in English. ** References ** [1] L. McNabb and R.S.
