PAPER SUBMISSION IS OVER

Call for papers

Eleventh in the series, the 2006 International Web3D Symposium will address a wide range of 3D technologies on the Internet, ranging from languages, tools and high performance 3D graphics to human-computer interaction issues and the latest mobile applications.

The annual Web3D Symposium is a major event which unites researchers, developers, experimenters, and content creators in a dynamic learning environment. Attendees share and explore methods of using, enhancing, or creating new 3D Web technology, such as X3D, VRML, MPEG4, OpenHSF, and Java3D.

Authors are invited to submit their work for review by the international Program Committee. Both research and applications papers are of interest to Web3D 2006. The papers must be innovative and contribute to the advancement of 3D technologies on the Web. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

• 3D graphics for wireless PDAs and cellular phones.
• Animated humanoids and complex reactive characters.
• Computer Aided Design in Web3D settings.
• High-performance 3D graphics for distributed environments and tele-operation systems.
• Innovative user-interface paradigms for navigating real-time 3D graphics environments and Web3D worlds.
• Interaction methods for Web-based 3D graphics systems.
• Methods for designing, representing, interacting with, and visualizing complex geometry, structure and behaviors.
• Multimodal user interaction in Web3D worlds.
• Web3D content for medical education, training and simulation.
• Innovative applications using 3D graphics on the Web and on mobile devices.
• Integration and interoperation with other XML-based Web standards. (CAD) technology and methods for lossless cross-application data exchange.
• Geometry/object behaviors

Submission instructions

Authors are invited to submit short papers of up to 4 pages (including figures and references) in PDF format via the Symposium Submission Site. Regular papers of up to 9 pages will continue to be accepted until the short paper submission deadline. Papers must be formatted using the document templates for conferences sponsored by ACM SIGGRAPH. After acceptance, the final revised paper is required also in electronic form. Accepted papers will appear in the Symposium Proceedings, published by ACM Press.
