CALL FOR PAPERS
2006 International Conference on CYBERWORLDS
November 28-30, 2006, Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland
Organized by EPFL VRlab
In cooperation with ACM SIGGRAPH, ACM SIGWEB, EUROGRAPHICS, CUSO, and INTUITION EU Network of Excellence
Cyberworlds are information worlds being formed on Internet either intentionally or spontaneously, with or without design. As information worlds, they are either virtual or real, and can be both. In terms of information modelling, the theoretical ground for the Cyberworlds is far above the level of integrating spatial database models and temporal database models. This conference will deal with large distributed information worlds on Internet as well as methods and tools used for creating such worlds.
CONFERENCE TOPICS
The conference topics include but are not limited to the following areas.
- Philosophy, Evolution, and Ethics of Cyberworlds - Cyberworlds and their impact on the real worlds - Cyberethics and Cyberlaws - Cybersecurity - Visual Cyberworlds - Human animation in Cyberworlds - Virtual Reality in Cyberworlds - Computer vision and augmented reality for Cyberworlds - Intelligent agents in Cyberworlds - Communication in Cyberworlds - Distributed virtual environments - Shared virtual worlds - Data mining and warehousing in Cyberworlds - Bioinformatics for Cyberlife and medicine - Healthcare in Cyberworlds - Cyberworlds for bioengineering - Cyberinformation systems - E-business in Cyberworlds - Cyberworlds for education - Collaborative work using Cyberworlds - Cyberworlds for manufacturing - Cyber fairs and Cyber museums - Multi-user web games
CW2006 will provide an opportunity for scientists, engineers, and researchers from around the world to share the latest research, ideas, and developments in these fields. The conference will consist of formal paper sessions and hands-on demonstrations where research groups and vendors will show the state-of-the-art in the field.
IMPORTANT DATES Paper Due: 24th May 2006 Notice of Acceptance: 1st July 2006 Camera Ready Due: 28th July 2006 Conference: 28-30 Nov 2006
