Third Eurographics Workshop on Graphics Hardware FINAL CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS Nice - France 11-12 September 1988 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 complex- ity. On the other hand, general purpose hardware, as avail- able today, offers economically state-of-the-art technolo- gies 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 options. Contributions are invited with respect to the following areas: * architectures & interaction * architectures & algorithmic aspects * innovative custom hardware * innovative use of general purpose hardware * VLSI design strategy To be accepted, authors are requested to send preferably extended abstracts (up to 6 pages) to one of the below men- tioned addresses. Abstracts submitted after the deadline will still be considered, but will have a lower priority for inclusion in the programme. Workshop Chairman: Drs A.A.M.
