cyberoid@milton.u.washington.edu (Robert Jacobson) (03/08/91)

                           CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

                               VISUALIZATION '91
                    Sponsored by  IEEE Computer Society,
                 Technical Committee on Computer Graphics.
                October 22-25, 1991   San Diego, California

This second conference will continue to explore how visualization is
being used to extract knowledge from data.  The conference is
concerned with all aspects of visualization, with a focus on
interdisciplinary techniques.  The conference will allow a dialogue to
occur between the developers of visualization methods and visualization
users across the full spectrum of science, engineering and  business.

                 Paper Submission (due April 15, 1991)

Original papers for the conference proceedings should be limited to
5000 words.  Where appropriate, the use of video as part of the paper is
strongly encouraged.   Videos should be submitted for review with
papers.  Contact either co-chair for  information.  Four copies of each
paper and ntsc-vhs video should be submitted  to Gregory Nielson,
papers co-chair.

Panel Proposals (due April 15, 1991)
Proposals for panels are solicited.  These should emphasize the
application of scientific visualization to problems in research,
development, demonstration, or business.  The panels will be presented
in parallel with papers and the case studies during the conference.  A
six page summary or position statements will be published in the
proceedings which will be available at the conference.
