Call for Papers ???????????????????? GD 2019 ??????? 27th International Symposium on ??? Graph Drawing and Network Visualization ??? September 17-20, 2019 - Prague, Czech Republic ?????????? https://kam.mff.cuni.cz/gd2019/ ================================================================ PDF version: https://kam.mff.cuni.cz/gd2019/callForPapers.pdf ================================================================ Graph Drawing is concerned with the geometric representation of graphs and constitutes the algorithmic core of Network Visualization. Graph Drawing and Network Visualization are motivated by applications where it is crucial to visually analyze and interact with relational datasets. Examples of such application areas include data science, social sciences, web computing, information systems, biology, geography, business intelligence, information security, and software engineering. GD has been the main annual event in this area for more than 25 years. Its focus is on combinatorial and algorithmic aspects of graph drawing as well as the design of network visualization systems and interfaces. GD 2019 will take place September 17-20, 2019, at the Floret conference center in Pruhonice near Prague, Czech Republic. Researchers and practitioners working on any aspects of graph drawing and network visualization are invited to contribute papers and posters, and to participate in the symposium and the graph drawing contest PAPERS ------ We invite authors to submit papers describing original research of theoretical or practical significance to graph drawing and network visualization. Regular papers must be submitted explicitly to one of two distinct tracks described below. Papers submitted to one track will not compete with papers submitted to the other track. Track 1: Combinatorial and algorithmic aspects ---------------------------------------------- This track is mainly devoted to fundamental graph drawing advances, such as combinatorial aspects and algorithm design. The range of topics for this track includes (but is not limited to): * Design and analysis of graph drawing algorithms * Geometric and topological graph theory * Computational topology of graphs on surfaces * Geometric network design and optimization * Geometric computing Track 2: Experimental, applied, and network visualization aspects ----------------------------------------------------------------- This track is mainly devoted to the practical aspects of graph drawing, such as the development of network visualization systems and interfaces in different application areas. The range of topics for this track includes (but is not limited to): * Visualization of graphs and networks in real world applications, including big data analysis * Engineering of network visualization algorithms and systems * Experimental results in graph theory and algorithms * Benchmarks and experimental studies of network visualization systems and user interfaces * Cognitive studies on graph drawing readability and user interaction * Interfaces and methods for interacting with graphs Authors of applied papers will have the opportunity to show a demo of their software/system during the poster session. Short papers ------------ In addition to the above two tracks, there will be a separate category for short papers, describing theoretical or applied contributions of shorter length. Papers in this category will be assigned a shorter time for presentation during the conference. Submission format ----------------- All submissions must be formatted using the LaTeX style file for the conference series Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) provided by Springer. The default margins and fonts must not be modified; in particular, the use of packages such as times.sty is not allowed. Submissions that do not comply with this format risk rejection without consideration of their merits. The length of regular papers is limited to 12 pages (excluding references), while the length of short papers is limited to 6 pages (excluding references). The claims of the paper should be fully substantiated. If this information does not fit within the page limits, the authors should include it in a clearly marked appendix, whose length is not constrained and which the reviewers may read at their own discretion. All submissions will be handled through EasyChair at the web site https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=gd2019 Posters & Contest ----------------- Submissions of posters on graph drawing, network visualization, and related areas are solicited. The poster session will provide a forum for the communication of late-breaking research results (which may also appear elsewhere) to the GD community. Authors of posters should prepare an abstract (up to 2 pages in the LNCS style) that must be submitted together with the poster itself. Details about the traditional Graph Drawing Contest held at the conference are provided on the contest web site. ??? http://graphdrawing.de/contest2019/contest.html PUBLICATION ----------- All accepted papers (including the two-page poster abstracts) will appear in the conference proceedings, published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. The LNCS proceedings will be made freely accessible to the GD community upon publication and openly accessible to anyone after four years. Authors will be required to submit their accepted papers to the arXiv repository, in order to provide immediate and unrestricted open access to them. The self-archived arXiv papers shall consist of the LNCS proceedings version (identical, except for possibly changed references to the appendix resp. the arXiv version) plus an optional clearly marked appendix. Subsequent submissions of revised versions of the paper to the arXiv (known as arXiv "replacements") are allowed. Failure to comply with these guidelines will impede the publication of the paper. Each paper or poster must be presented at the conference by an author (barring unforeseen circumstances), otherwise the paper will not be included in the proceedings. Should any visa restriction prevent an author from attending the conference and presenting a paper, he/she will be given ways to participate and give the talk via electronic means. Selected papers from both tracks will be invited for submission to a special issue of the Journal of Graph Algorithms and Applications (JGAA). The authors of two selected papers in Track 2 will be invited to submit a substantially extended version of their work to IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics (TVCG). AWARDS ------ For each of the two tracks, the Program Committee of GD 2019 will give a Best Paper Award. In addition, to recognize the effort of participants to present their work and to prepare their posters in a clear and elegant way, there will be a Best Presentation Award and a Best Poster Award voted on by the GD 2019 attendees.

As you know, the 27th International Symposium on Graph Drawing and Network Visualization will take place near Prague, Czech Republic, from September 17 to 20, 2019. As has been tradition since 1994, the symposium will be accompanied by a Graph Drawing Contest, allowing all community members to demonstrate their graph drawing skills in a fun competitive setting. The contest has two parts: the Creative Topics and the Live Challenge. 1) Creative Topics For your entertainment and inspiration, we have composed two nice graphs that you may draw with full artistic freedom. The first graph represents the appearances of 28 superheroes in 24 movies of the "Marvel Cinematic Universe". The second graph describes 151 food recipes and their ingredients extracted from the TheMealDB database. In both cases, you may visualize the graph in any way you like. Submissions will be judged on a list of criteria that includes, but is not limited to, readability, aesthetics, novelty, and design quality. The weighting of the criteria might be different for the two graphs. Submissions will be handled through EasyChair. For more details, visit http://graphdrawing.org/gdcontest/contest2019/topics.html Submission deadline: September 05 (23:59 PDT) 2) Live Challenge Following popular tradition, a live challenge will be held during the symposium in a format similar to a typical programming contest. Teams are presented with a collection of challenge graphs and have approximately one hour to submit their highest scoring drawings. This year, the challenge focuses on minimizing the number of crossings in a straight-line upward drawing on a fixed grid. Teams may either draw the graphs manually, or use their own customized tools. Remote participation will also be possible. For more details, visit http://graphdrawing.org/gdcontest/contest2019/challenge.html 3) Awards Thanks to our generous sponsors, a monetary prize will be awarded to up to three submissions in each of the four different categories. We are looking forward to your submissions!

Call for Papers ???????????????????? GD 2019 ??????? 27th International Symposium on ??? Graph Drawing and Network Visualization ??? September 17-20, 2019 - Prague, Czech Republic ?????????? https://kam.mff.cuni.cz/gd2019/ ================================================================ PDF version: https://kam.mff.cuni.cz/gd2019/callForPapers.pdf ================================================================ Graph Drawing is concerned with the geometric representation of graphs and constitutes the algorithmic core of Network Visualization. Graph Drawing and Network Visualization are motivated by applications where it is crucial to visually analyze and interact with relational datasets. Examples of such application areas include data science, social sciences, web computing, information systems, biology, geography, business intelligence, information security, and software engineering. GD has been the main annual event in this area for more than 25 years. Its focus is on combinatorial and algorithmic aspects of graph drawing as well as the design of network visualization systems and interfaces. GD 2019 will take place September 17-20, 2019, at the Floret conference center in Pruhonice near Prague, Czech Republic. Researchers and practitioners working on any aspects of graph drawing and network visualization are invited to contribute papers and posters, and to participate in the symposium and the graph drawing contest PAPERS ------ We invite authors to submit papers describing original research of theoretical or practical significance to graph drawing and network visualization. Regular papers must be submitted explicitly to one of two distinct tracks described below. Papers submitted to one track will not compete with papers submitted to the other track. Track 1: Combinatorial and algorithmic aspects ---------------------------------------------- This track is mainly devoted to fundamental graph drawing advances, such as combinatorial aspects and algorithm design. The range of topics for this track includes (but is not limited to): * Design and analysis of graph drawing algorithms * Geometric and topological graph theory * Computational topology of graphs on surfaces * Geometric network design and optimization * Geometric computing Track 2: Experimental, applied, and network visualization aspects ----------------------------------------------------------------- This track is mainly devoted to the practical aspects of graph drawing, such as the development of network visualization systems and interfaces in different application areas. The range of topics for this track includes (but is not limited to): * Visualization of graphs and networks in real world applications, including big data analysis * Engineering of network visualization algorithms and systems * Experimental results in graph theory and algorithms * Benchmarks and experimental studies of network visualization systems and user interfaces * Cognitive studies on graph drawing readability and user interaction * Interfaces and methods for interacting with graphs Authors of applied papers will have the opportunity to show a demo of their software/system during the poster session. Short papers ------------ In addition to the above two tracks, there will be a separate category for short papers, describing theoretical or applied contributions of shorter length. Papers in this category will be assigned a shorter time for presentation during the conference. Submission format ----------------- All submissions must be formatted using the LaTeX style file for the conference series Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) provided by Springer. The default margins and fonts must not be modified; in particular, the use of packages such as times.sty is not allowed. Submissions that do not comply with this format risk rejection without consideration of their merits. The length of regular papers is limited to 12 pages (excluding references), while the length of short papers is limited to 6 pages (excluding references). The claims of the paper should be fully substantiated. If this information does not fit within the page limits, the authors should include it in a clearly marked appendix, whose length is not constrained and which the reviewers may read at their own discretion. All submissions will be handled through EasyChair at the web site https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=gd2019 Posters & Contest ----------------- Submissions of posters on graph drawing, network visualization, and related areas are solicited. The poster session will provide a forum for the communication of late-breaking research results (which may also appear elsewhere) to the GD community. Authors of posters should prepare an abstract (up to 2 pages in the LNCS style) that must be submitted together with the poster itself. Details about the traditional Graph Drawing Contest held at the conference are provided on the contest web site. ??? http://graphdrawing.de/contest2019/contest.html PUBLICATION ----------- All accepted papers (including the two-page poster abstracts) will appear in the conference proceedings, published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. The LNCS proceedings will be made freely accessible to the GD community upon publication and openly accessible to anyone after four years. Authors will be required to submit their accepted papers to the arXiv repository, in order to provide immediate and unrestricted open access to them. The self-archived arXiv papers shall consist of the LNCS proceedings version (identical, except for possibly changed references to the appendix resp. the arXiv version) plus an optional clearly marked appendix. Subsequent submissions of revised versions of the paper to the arXiv (known as arXiv "replacements") are allowed. Failure to comply with these guidelines will impede the publication of the paper. Each paper or poster must be presented at the conference by an author (barring unforeseen circumstances), otherwise the paper will not be included in the proceedings. Should any visa restriction prevent an author from attending the conference and presenting a paper, he/she will be given ways to participate and give the talk via electronic means. Selected papers from both tracks will be invited for submission to a special issue of the Journal of Graph Algorithms and Applications (JGAA). The authors of two selected papers in Track 2 will be invited to submit a substantially extended version of their work to IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics (TVCG). AWARDS ------ For each of the two tracks, the Program Committee of GD 2019 will give a Best Paper Award. In addition, to recognize the effort of participants to present their work and to prepare their posters in a clear and elegant way, there will be a Best Presentation Award and a Best Poster Award voted on by the GD 2019 attendees.

Travel Support -------------- Thanks to the main sponsor, the German Science Foundation (DFG), the organizers will be able to offer limited travel support for a small number of participants. Submission ---------- We invite authors to submit extended abstracts of original research. Submissions must be formatted in LaTeX using a supplied class file, and not be longer than 175 lines of text. Submissions will be handled through EasyChair. https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=eurocg2020 Authors must use the LaTeX class file eurocg2020, which is based on the LIPIcs class file. Links to the class file, as well as a formatted example submission, can be found on the website. http://www1.pub.informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de/eurocg2020/index.php?id=call-for-papers The class file should automatically count all lines containing text, excluding title and references, and excluding figures. Authors are expected to make reasonable effort to make sure all lines that contain text are counted: the class file should be considered an aid, and the responsibility of correctly counting lines remains with the authors. For more detailed information about the change to line counting, please refer to the following page. http://www1.pub.informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de/eurocg2020/index.php?id=line-counting The main (175 line) body of your submission should be self-contained, and provide a clear and succinct description of your results. Your submission may include a clearly marked appendix with more details. An appendix is not required and will only be read at the discretion of the program committee. Acceptance ---------- EuroCG is a non-competitive forum. We will accept all submissions which are original, correct, well-presented, non-trivial, and in scope. For a detailed acceptance policy as used by the program committee, please refer to the following page. http://www1.pub.informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de/eurocg2020/index.php?id=acceptance-policy Proceedings ----------- EuroCG does not have formally reviewed proceedings. A booklet of abstracts, without ISBN, will be accessible online from the webpage for the benefit of the community and must be regarded as a collection of preprints rather than a formally reviewed selection of papers. Results presented at EuroCG are expected to appear in other conferences with formal proceedings and/or in journals. In particular, papers that have been submitted to other formally reviewed conferences are eligible for being presented at EuroCG, assuming they have not been presented at a conference or published in a journal by the time of the conference. Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit extended versions to a special issue of the journal Computational Geometry: Theory and Applications. Authors of accepted submissions are expected to present their work at the conference. Failure to do so may result in removal of the contribution from the abstract booklet and conference website. Authors from countries where obtaining a visa for Germany is difficult and/or time-consuming are asked to contact the PC chairs when submitting their paper. We strongly encourage these authors to arrange for dates at the German embassy /before/ the submission deadline. If necessary, the PC chairs will try to speed up the review process for the respective papers.

Both the steering committee as well as a large majority of the participants of the business meeting were supportive of GD joining this initiative and its growing list of participating conferences. One step in implementing an anti-harassment policy for GD is to nominate a number of so-called SafeToC advocates (see [2] for a description of their role), who are community volunteers serving for a few years as contact persons during the conferences and helping to set up a code of conduct for GD from 2020 onward. This is a call for indications of interest to everyone who is interested in serving as such an advocate for GD and who is regularly attending the GD conferences. If this applies to you, please contact the steering committee chair Stephen Kobourov by October 31, 2019.

The goal is to present recent results and to identify and explore directions for future research. Submitted papers should describe original results in any aspects of graph theory related to computer science, including but not restricted to: :: design and analysis of sequential, parallel, randomized, parameterized, and distributed graph and network algorithms, :: structural graph theory with algorithmic or complexity applications, :: computational complexity of graph and network problems, :: graph grammars, graph rewriting systems and graph modelling, :: graph drawing and layouts, :: computational geometry, :: computational biology, :: random graphs and models of the web and scale-free networks, and :: support of these concepts by suitable implementations and applications. Submissions and Proceedings Contributors are invited to submit an extended abstract of at most 12 pages Springer LNCS format including title, abstract, and references, without changes to the settings of margins and vertical spacing, and with numbered pages. To submissions with more than one page of references a bound of 11 LNCS-pages applies, including title and abstract, but excluding references. Proofs omitted due to space restrictions must be placed in an appendix, to be read by program committee members at their discretion. Simultaneous submission of papers to any other conference with proceedings published or made publicly available, or submitting papers previously accepted for journal publication is not allowed. Accepted contributions will be published in the conference proceedings in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series of Springer-Verlag.

EuroCG is an annual workshop that combines a strong scientific tradition with a friendly and informal atmosphere. The workshop is a forum where established researchers and students can meet, discuss their work, present their results, and establish scientific collaborations.? More information about the event can be found on the following page. http://go.uniwue.de/eurocg20 Important Dates --------------- Submission Deadline:???? January? 09, 2020 Acceptance Notification: February 13, 2020 Early Registration:????? February 20, 2020 Camera-ready version:??? February 27, 2020 EuroCG 2020:???????????? March 16-18, 2020 PhD School:????????????? March 19-20, 2020 All deadlines are 23:59 AoE Invited Speakers ---------------- Monique Teillaud, INRIA Nancy - Grand Est, LORIA Otfried Cheong, SCALGO and KAIST Erin Wolf Chambers, Saint Louis University Topics of Interest ------------------ Topics of interest cover all aspects of computational geometry, including but not limited to the following: - discrete and combinatorial geometry and topology, - design and analysis of geometric algorithms and data structures, - implementation and experimental evaluation of geometric algorithms, - numerical and algebraic issues arising from implementations, - analysis of geometric configurations, - geometric modeling, visualization and simulation, - combinatorial optimization, - graph drawing, - structural molecular biology, - geometric puzzle analysis, - geographic information systems, - robotics and virtual worlds, and - computer-aided design and manufacturing. PhD School "Geometry and Graphs" -------------------------------- The workshop will be followed by a two-day PhD school on "Geometry and Graphs" (March 19-20, 2020).? The program of the PhD school will consist of a mixture of tutorials and exercise sessions. The speakers will be Markus Chimani, Marc van Kreveld, G?nter Rote, Vera Sacrist?n, and Pavel Valtr. http://www1.pub.informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de/eurocg2020/index.php?id=phd-school Best Student Presentation Award ------------------------------- To recognize the effort of young researchers to present their work in a clear and elegant way, there will be a Best Student Presentation Award voted on by the EuroCG 2020 attendees. Travel Support -------------- Thanks to the main sponsor, the German Science Foundation (DFG), the organizers will be able to offer limited travel support for a small number of participants. Submission ---------- We invite authors to submit extended abstracts of original research. Submissions must be formatted in LaTeX using a supplied class file, and not be longer than 175 lines of text.? Submissions will be handled through EasyChair. https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=eurocg2020 Authors must use the LaTeX class file eurocg2020, which is based on the LIPIcs class file.? Links to the class file, as well as a formatted example submission, can be found on the website. http://www1.pub.informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de/eurocg2020/index.php?id=call-for-papers The class file should automatically count all lines containing text, excluding title and references, and excluding figures. Authors are expected to make reasonable effort to make sure all lines that contain text are counted: the class file should be considered an aid, and the responsibility of correctly counting lines remains with the authors. For more detailed information about the change to line counting, please refer to the following page. http://www1.pub.informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de/eurocg2020/index.php?id=line-counting The main (175 line) body of your submission should be self-contained, and provide a clear and succinct description of your results.? Your submission may include a clearly marked appendix with more details. An appendix is not required and will only be read at the discretion of the program committee. Acceptance ---------- EuroCG is a non-competitive forum.? We will accept all submissions which are original, correct, well-presented, non-trivial, and in scope.? For a detailed acceptance policy as used by the program committee, please refer to the following page. http://www1.pub.informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de/eurocg2020/index.php?id=acceptance-policy Proceedings ----------- EuroCG does not have formally reviewed proceedings.? A booklet of abstracts, without ISBN, will be accessible online from the webpage for the benefit of the community and must be regarded as a collection of preprints rather than a formally reviewed selection of papers. Results presented at EuroCG are expected to appear in other conferences with formal proceedings and/or in journals. In particular, papers that have been submitted to other formally reviewed conferences are eligible for being presented at EuroCG, assuming they have not been presented at a conference or published in a journal by the time of the conference.? Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit extended versions to a special issue of the journal Computational Geometry: Theory and Applications. Authors of accepted submissions are expected to present their work at the conference.? Failure to do so may result in removal of the contribution from the abstract booklet and conference website. Authors from countries where obtaining a visa for Germany is difficult and/or time-consuming are asked to contact the PC chairs when submitting their paper.? We strongly encourage these authors to arrange for dates at the German embassy /before/ the submission deadline.? If necessary, the PC chairs will try to speed up the review process for the respective papers.
