6th Eurographics Symposium on Parallel Graphics and Visualization: short papers

Abstract

This year the symposium received 30 submissions. These were reviewed by the 23 member program committee and by the editors. Most papers received three reviews, although a few received two. Every paper was also read by one or both editors. In the end the reviewer rankings correlated well with the editors feelings about the papers and the selection process was easy. The final program contains the 19 best submissions (as judged by us) for an acceptance rate of 2/3. As in recent years, this year most of the papers concerned scientific visualization of large data sets. Two sessions and the second keynote were devoted entirely to commodity visualization clusters, and many other papers generated results using clusters. Other sessions were on volume rendering, large data and visualization, and parallel rendering and animation.
