4th International Conference on Research and Development in Imaging, Nanotechnology, Industrial Design and Robotics ( RDINIDR 2018 )
Athens – Greece
October 8 – 10, 2018

RDINIDR 2018 will be composed of research presentations, keynote lectures, invited presentations, workshops, doctoral consortium, demo session, research-in-progress, poster presentations, etc.

The works must be submitted following the instructions found on the submission of papers section. All accepted works will be published in the respective conference proceedings (in printed book form, CD/DVD and magazine) by international and prestigious publishing houses in America and Europe:
http://www.alaipo.com/RDINIDR-2018/conference_RDINIDR_2018_publications.html

Post-conference publishing Handbook of Research. IGI Global –www.igi-global.com: Hershey, Pennsylvania – USA (Publications have been indexed in a number of prestigious indices such as Thomson Reuters, DBLP, ACM Digital Library, ERIC, and the Australian Education Index).

The contributions are will be submitted for indexation by EI Compendex, Thomson Reuters, Scopus, IET Inspec and dblp.Uni-Trie.de.

Very Important: The authors can present more than one paper/demo/poster, etc. with only one registration (maximum 3 contributions) with only one registration (i.e. papers = 18 pages each one of them). More information: http://www.alaipo.com/RDINIDR-2018/conference_RDINIDR_2018_paper.html

All contributions -papers, workshops, demos, doctoral consortium, etc., should be of high quality, originality, clarity, significance and impact. Our main goal is to create a real space for the constructive debate and interchange of theoretical ideas, practical aspects, experiment results, conclusions, learned lessons and very specially the future lines of research. The great areas are imaging, nanotechnology, industrial design, R&D, robotics, hardware and computing engineering. which will be presented next, and broken down in accordance to the division of the topics. Finally, the current listing (alphabetical order) doesn’t mean that other issues of general or particular interest are excluded currently, or in coming editions of the event. In other words, the authors are free to present other topics which may enrich the content of the conference. More information: http://www.alaipo.com/RDINIDR-2018/conference_RDINIDR_2018_topics.html

An extensive listing connotes and reflects the requirement and also skill necessary to find intersection zones of the disciplines among the different domains, fields, and specialities; which at the same time potentially boosts and merges the formerly different scientific views.

All submitted papers, demos, posters, etc., will be reviewed by a double-blind (at least three reviewers), non-blind, and participative peer review. These three kinds of review will support the selection process of those that will be accepted for their presentation at the international conference. Authors of accepted contributions who registered in the conference can have access to the evaluations and possible feedback provided by the reviewers who recommended the acceptance of their papers, so they can accordingly improve the final version of their works.

ACM SIGGRAPH Announces Slate of Candidates

ACM SIGGRAPH Announces Slate of Candidates

The ACM SIGGRAPH has announced the slate of Executive Committee candidates for the 2018 election.  Below are the candidates for the positions of Treasurer and the two Director at Large positions.  Voting will begin in June, with the new Members taking office in September.

Treasurer

  • Brad Lawrence
  • David Spoelstra


Director At Large (Two positions)

  • Evan Hirsch
  • Mashhuda Glencross
  • Paul Strauss
  • Terrence Masson

ACM SIGGRAPH candidate petition dates for this election which are: 31 March 2018 (intent to petition) and 16 April 2018 (petition submission deadline).

Anyone interested in petitioning must inform ACM Headquarters, Pat Ryan and the ACM SIGGRAPH President, Jessica Hodgins of their intent to petition by the date specified above.

ACM SIGGRAPH is managed by a nine-person Executive Committee (EC): three officers (President, Vice President, and Treasurer) and six Directors at Large. Members of the EC are elected by the ACM SIGGRAPH membership and serve three-year terms. Elections are conducted annually to fill open positions; this process is led by the chair of the Nominations Committee. All officers and directors are required to be members of ACM and ACM SIGGRAPH.

Nominations for the ACM SIGGRAPH Executive Committee may be submitted in July of the year prior to the beginning of the position term. To submit a nomination, contact the ACM SIGGRAPH Nominations Committee Chair.

For more information, visit the ACM SIGGRAPH elections page of our website.

 

Congratulations to the New Class of ACM Fellows!

Congratulations to the New Class of ACM Fellows!

Three ACM SIGGRAPH members were recently named to the 2017 class of ACM Fellows and will be honored at the annual awards banquet June 23 in San Francisco. ACM fellows represent less than one percent of the organization’s overall membership of talented and inventive researchers and academicians in the wide-ranging computer science field. To be elected an ACM fellow is a testament to that individual’s hard work and pioneering contributions in computing.

This year, SIGGRAPH members Michael Kass, Ravi Ramamoorthi, and Steve Seitz join the new class of ACM fellows, 54 members in total, recognized for their seminal and innovative work in computer optimization and simulation (Kass); computer graphics rendering and advances in physics-based computer vision (Ramamoorthi); and computer vision and computer graphics (Seitz).
