Sixth Eurographics Workshop on Graphics Hardware CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS Vienna - Austria 1 - 2 September 1991 Aims/Scope: Graphics hardware designers today have lots of different options for system design as offered by ASIC design tools and powerful general purpose modules. On the one hand, silicon compilers offer the short turn-around time of ASIC design and allow for an increased circuit complexity. On the other hand, general purpose hardware, as available today, offers economically state-of-the-art technologies and can be used to obtain ``cheap'' parallel systems. The aim of the workshop is to bring together leading workers in the field of graphics hardware design, to present their work and to discuss alternative design topics. Contributions are invited with respect to the following computer graphics areas: * architectures & interaction * innovative custom hardware * architectures & algorithmic aspects * innovative use of general-purpose hardware * VLSI design strategy for graphics * graphics for VLSI design To be accepted, authors are requested to send four copies of an extended abstract (up to 6 pages) to one of the below mentioned addresses. Abstracts submitted after the deadline will still be considered, but will have a lower priority for inclusion in the programme. Papers and discussions will be published by Springer Verlag in a book. Workshop Chairmen: Prof. A. Kaufman, State University of New York at Stony Brook, USA, and Dr. M. Mehl, FhG-AGD, Darmstadt, Germany. Programme Committee: Prof. R.L. Grimsdale (University of Sussex, UK), Dr. F. Kitson (HP Labs, Palo Alto, CA, USA), Dr. P. Leray (CCETT, France), Drs. A.A.M. Kuijk (Centre for Mathematics and Computer Science, Amsterdam, NL), Prof. W. Strassber (University of Tubingen, FRG), Dr. S. Molnar (University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, USA), Dr. J.R. Rossignac (IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center, USA), Dr. C. Shaw (University of Alberta, Canada). Local Organisation Chairman: Dr. M. Mehl (FhG-AGD, Darmstadt, Germany).
