> AIMS AND SCOPE:
> 
> The Eurographics workshop on Virtual Environments is an
> international forum of high quality for exchanging experience and 
> knowledge between people representing the Virtual Reality / 
> Virtual Environment (VR / VE) communities.
> 
> Virtual Environments are regarded as one significant step in Man
> Maschine Communication. Following non-interactive, command-driven
> and graphical-interactive sytems, virtual environments now allow
> an easy-to-understand presentation and more intuitive interaction
> with computer internal worlds. Simulation of physical phenomena, 
> visual and auditory presentation and as well as intuitive interaction
> are required in realtime. Concepts and techniques to improve the
> illusion of presence in VEs are still under investigation.
> 
> The second Eurographics workshop aims to provide a forum for a scientific
> discussion on Realism vs. Realtime. The main topics of this workshop
> include:
> 
>         - realtime rendering,
>         - visual effects,
>         - auralization,
>         - synchronization of visual and auditive presentations,
>         - physical based modeling and simulation,
>         - natural phenomena in realtime,
>         - immersion, navigation, interaction, feedback
>         - human behaviour in shared worlds,
>         - the perfect illusion
>         - realistic vs. artificial virtual worlds,
>         - performance with 'real world problems',
>         - application experience in various fields
> 
> 
> CONTIBUTIONS:
> 
> Authors are invited to send four copies of an extended abstract
> (4-6 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.

> SCHEDULE:
> 
> November 21st, '94: deadline for extended abstract
> December  5th, '94: notification of acceptance for the workshop
> January  15th, '95: full papers

> 
> VENUE AND FEE:
> 
> The workshop will be held in Monte Carlo (Monaco) together with the
> annual IMAGINA conference (1-3 February 1995). Participation is
> limited to 60 persons to encourage discussions after each session.
> Selection of participants will take place on the basis of extended
> abstracts reviewed by the programme committee. Participation without
> submitting a paper may be possible in few cases if a position paper
> is submitted.
> 
> Full versions of all accepted papers will be published as Eurographics
> Technical Report and distributed among the participants as workshop
> proceedings. It is intended to publish the workshop proceedings.
> Invitations to submit a revised version of the full papers will
> depend on the quality of the contributions.
> 
> Attendance fees will cover the meeting facilities, coffee breaks
> and the workshop proceedings. The fees will be about 180 ECU for
> EG members and 240 ECU for non EG-members.
