IEEE PacificVis 2013
Sydney, Australia, February 27 to March 1, 2013

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

The 6th PacificVis Symposium (Pacific Visualization) will be held in
Sydney, Australia from February 27 to March 1, 2013. As part of
PacificVis, workshop/tutorial sessions will be held on February 26.
PacificVis is an IEEE sponsored international visualization symposium
held in the Asia-Pacific region, with the objective to foster greater
exchange between visualization researchers and practitioners, and to
draw more researchers in the Asia-Pacific region to enter this rapidly
growing area of research.

PacificVis 2013 is soliciting high quality poster proposals. The
PacificVis 2013 poster program offers an opportunity to present
innovative techniques in commercial products, work in progress, student
projects, or non-traditional research. We especially welcome
presentations of novel interface and interaction techniques for
visualization. The objective is to foster exchange between researchers
and practitioners in the fields of visualization and HCI.

Important Dates:

Poster submission deadline: 	December 17, 2012, 11:59pm (PDT)
Notification of acceptance:  	January 8, 2013
Camera-ready version due:     	January 21, 2013
Symposium: 			February 27 - March 1, 2013
Workshop/Tutorial: 		February 26

   *   linking+brushing
   *   labeling, editing, and annotation
   *   collaborative

   *   cognition and perception
   *   presentation and storytelling, usability studies
   *   validation and verification
   *   color, texture, scene and motion perception

System focused visualization research

   *   taxonomies and models
   *   methodologies and frameworks
   *   visualization system and toolkit design
   *   illustrative visualization
   *   database visualization
   *   collaborative visualization

Hardware, display and interaction technology
   *   large and high-resolution displays
   *   stereo displays; immersive and virtual environments
   *   multimodal input
   *   GPU and multi-core architectures
   *   CPU and GPU clusters
   *   grid and cloud environments

Visualization application areas
   *   visualization in mathematics, financial, security, and business
visualization, geo-visualization, biomedical visualization, text and
documents, visualization for education, multimedia visualization, social
media visualization and health


An interactive poster session will be held to allow plenty of
opportunities for one-on-one dialogue and small group discussion in a
casual setting. Extended abstracts of the accepted posters will be
distributed at the conference, but these abstracts will NOT be included
in the symposium proceedings and will NOT be considered publications.
The same work can therefore be submitted to a journal or conference later.

Posters should present at least partial results achieved with a new
technique. Submissions describing unsubstantiated ideas for future
research will not be accepted. Based on the results of paper review
process, the PacificVis 2013 program committee will also decide to offer
several authors to present their work as invited posters and we expect
to build a high quality poster program based on these core
contributions. Posters will be evaluated by the PacificVis 2013 Poster
Co-Chairs based on the level of contribution, validity of the results,
originality, and clarity of presentation.


Submission Instructions

Posters of up to 2 pages (two-column, single-spaced, 10 point font,
including figures, tables and references) are invited. Manuscripts must
be written in English, and follow the formatting guidelines. DOC and
LaTeX templates are available at
http://www.cs.sfu.ca/~vis/Track/pacvis.html.

Submissions should be made electronically in Adobe PDF (no paper copy
will be accepted) by e-mailing it to the Poster Co-Chairs
(pvispstr at it.usyd.edu.au) by the deadline specified below. File name
should start with primary author's full last name followed by an
underscore and arbitrary poster name, for example
smith_graph_drawing.pdf. Please do NOT use paper submission system for
anything related to posters. Even if the PacificVis 2013 program
committee offered you to present an invited poster based on your earlier
paper submission, please send the new 2-page version to the Poster
Co-Chairs (pvispstr at it.usyd.edu.au) by the deadline specified below.
This will serve as an indication that you accept the invitation and are
willing to present your work as a poster at the conference.

Contact Email: pvispstr at it.usyd.edu.au

Poster Co-Chairs:

Shixia Liu, Microsoft Research Asia
Quang Vinh Nguyen, University of Western Sydney
Shigeo Takahashi, University of Tokyo
