Call for Papers
The 2nd International Symposium on Voronoi Diagrams in Science and Engineering (http://voronoi.hanyang.ac.kr/vd2005/)
October 10 - 13, 2005 Hanyang University, Seoul, Korea
----------------- Goal and Fields ----------------- The concept of the Voronoi diagram as well as its dual structure, the Delaunay diagram, is one of the most fundamental geometric big ideas, and has been discovered and re-discovered repeatedly in the history of many fields of science and engineering. This concept has become even more important because recent development of computational methods enables us to compute large-scale Voronoi diagrams in a robust manner, and consequently enables us to apply this idea to practical problems arising in real worlds.
While the contributions from theoreticians of Voronoi diagrams are and will be important, the discoveries of important real world problems where the Voronoi/Delaunay diagram can contribute will be even more important driving forces for the evolution of Voronoi/Delaunay diagrams.
The goal of this symposium is to exchange ideas among different disciplines and different fields of science and engineering. In particular, the interactions and collaborations between theoretical computational geometers and researchers from various domains in science and engineering will be highly encouraged.
In this year, the symposium extends its scope even further to cover a rather new field of Voronoi diagram, the Voronoi Art. Since the concept of Voronoi is universal, it is not surprising to find this concept in not only science and engineering but also arts and literatures.
----------------- Invited Speakers ----------------- Aurenhammer, Franz (Technische Universitaet Graz, Austria) Medvedev, Nikolai N. (Institute of Chemical Kinetics and Combustion, Russian Academy of Science) (A biologist is being contacted for the invitation.)
-------- Topics --------
Expected topics include, but not restricted to,
Theoretical aspects of Voronoi/Delaunay diagrams Computational and implementational aspects of Voronoi/Delaunay diagrams Generalizaion of the Voronoi/Delaunay diagrams Voronoi Arts Applications of the Voronoi/Delaunay diagrams to Biology Chemistry Physics Material science Geography Location science Geographic information systems Mesh generation Geometric algorithms Solid modeling Computer graphics Pattern analysis and recognition Space analysis Motion analysis and planning Collision detection and avoidance Interpolation Operations research and others
------------------- Paper Submissions ------------------- Official language is English. Full papers (up to 12 pages in length) are invited from a wide varity of topics related to the Voronoi diagrams, the Delaunay diagrams, their extensions and applications. Submissions will be evaluated mainly on relevance, and also on technical quality and exposition. Authors should submit full papers by e-mail (PDF or postscript) to:
vd2005@voronoi.hanyang.ac.kr
------------- Publications ------------- Accepted papers will appear in the proceedings of the symposium. Selected papers will be invited for consideration for publication in special issues of International Journal of Computational Geometry & Applications (IJCGA) and Journal of Ceramics Processing Research (JCPR).
The submissions of art works on Voronoi Art will be also separately published, and authors are recommened to consult to the website for the details.
----------------- Important Dates ----------------- Paper submission: July 1, 2005 Notification of the acceptance: August 1, 2005 Final manuscript: September 1, 2005 Symposium: October 10-13, 2005
--------------------- Paper Review Policy --------------------- The goal of the symposium is to exchange ideas among different disciplines and fields, and hence the research areas will diverge. So, we place emphasis on gathering papers from a wide range of different research fields and will select papers mainly from the viewpoint of relevance of the topics.
