Call for Workshop Proposals

SIBGRAPI - Conference on Graphics, Patterns and Images (formerly Brazilian Symposium on Computer Graphics and Image Processing) is a traditional forum bringing together researchers, students and professionals in Computer Graphics, Image Processing, Computer Vision, Pattern Recognition and related areas. It is annually promoted by the Brazilian Computer Society (SBC) through its CEGRAPI committee. The conference started in 1988 as a small symposium and has grown in importance along the years.

The 27th SIBGRAPI is being organized by EMAp/FGV, the School of Applied Mathematics of Getúlio Vargas Foundation, and will be held on August 27-30, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

We are inviting proposals for workshops, to be held as special sessions of the conference.

The purpose of these workshops is to provide participants with an informal setting for discussing innovative work on important new technical directions. Workshops should last 4-6 hours, and will be scheduled for August 30th. Although the organizers determine the format of the workshop, it is recommended to reserve substantial time for discussion, and that aspect will be considered in the selection process.

Proposals for workshops should be at most 2-3 pages in length and should contain:

  • Title
  • Area of interest
  • A brief description of the workshop technical issues
  • The relevance and novelty of the workshop
  • Contact information of the organizing committee. This committee should consist of at least three experts in the field, not all from the same institution. One of the members should be identified as the contact person.
  • Estimate of the audience size and composition, including background.
  • Format and agenda.
  • Procedures for selecting papers or other types of work, if applicable.
  • A list of audio-visual or technical requirements.
  • The budget of the workshop: it should include information about existing funding for the planned activities and what have to be included in the SIBGRAPI general budget.

Workshops proposals should be submitted as a pdf file sent by e-mail to the chairs:

  • Carla Freitas (<script type='text/javascript'>var a = new Array('s.br','carla@i','nf.ufrg');document.write(""+a[1]+a[2]+a[0]+"");</script>)
  • Fabio Cappabianco (<script type='text/javascript'>var a = new Array('o@unifesp.','cappabianc','br');document.write(""+a[1]+a[0]+a[2]+"");</script>)

Important Dates (for workshops proposals)

  • Submission deadline: December 20th, 2013.
  • Notification of acceptance: January 15th, 2014.

Evaluation Process

The chairs will review the proposals regarding: overall quality, attractiveness, relevance and benefits to the SIBGRAPI attendees; expertise of organizers in the subject area; format and agenda.

For further questions, please, send e-mail to <script type='text/javascript'>var a = new Array('.br','rgs','.uf','inf','la@','car');document.write(""+a[5]+a[4]+a[3]+a[2]+a[1]+a[0]+"");</script> and <script type='text/javascript'>var a = new Array('cappabian','co@unifes','p.br');document.write(""+a[0]+a[1]+a[2]+"");</script>.
