AIMS AND SCOPE:

Following the successful workshop on animation and simulation,
September 91 in Vienna, we announce a third workshop on Animation and
Simulation. As with the previous two workshops, the purpose is to improve
the exchange of experience and knowledge between people representing
the animation and simulation communities on the general themes of modeling,
animation, motion control, simulation and visualization of dynamic
scenes.

The main topics of this workshop are :

        - hardware and software for animation
        - motion control
        - physically  based modeling
        - simulation of dynamic natural phenomena
        - animation languages and systems
        - character animation, human animation, synthetic actors
        - behavioral animation
        - animator interface
        - flight and driving simulators
        - real time animation/simulation
        - graphical simulation
        - motion blur and temporal antialiasing
        - temporal coherence

CONTIBUTIONS:

Authors are invited to send four copies of an extended abstract (up to
6 pages) to the workshop secretariat (see below for relevant
deadlines). Abstracts submitted after the deadline will still be
considered, but will have a lower priority for inclusion in the
programme. Invitations to submit revised versions for a book (in the
Eurographics Seminar Series or the EG Technical Series) will depend on
the quality of the contributions.


SCHEDULE:

May  1        : deadline for extended abstract

June 1        : notification of acceptance for the workshop

July 15	      : full papers

September 5-6 : workshop


PROGRAM COMMITTEE CHAIRMEN :
 David Forsey (Canada), Gerard Hegron (France)

PROGRAM COMMITTEE :

Bruno Arnaldi (F), Norman Badler (USA), Sabine Coquillart (F),
Terry Hewitt (UK), J. Kearney (USA), Annie Luciani (F),
Nadia Magnenat-Thalmann (CH),  Claude Puech (F), Daniel Thalmann (CH),
G. Vanecek (USA), Jane Wilhelms (USA),  Brian Wyvill (Canada),


LOCATION AND ORGANIZATION :


The workshop will be held at Cambridge (UK) just before the annual
Eurpgraphics Conference. The local organizer is Terry Hewitt. The workshop
is an
activity of the Eurographics Working Group on Animation and Simulation.

Attendance fees will be charged and will cover the meeting facilities,
lunch on both days, and accommodation in Queens' College, Cambridge on Sat
5th Sept with breakfast. They do not cover dinners for which personal
arrangements should be made or accommodation on Fri 4th Sept (although this
may be booked as an extra). The fees are 125 UK pounds for EG members and
160 UK pounds for non-members.

If spare capacity is available (above the numbers submitting papers) there may
be limited opportunities for those not presenting papers to participate.
Contact the local organiser (hewitt@uk.ac.mcc.cgu) for more information.
