The Computational Geometry Week 2020, with the 36th International
Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2020), was originally
planned to be held in Zurich, Switzerland. Due to the COVID-19
pandemic it will be an online event instead.

We invite all members of the community to participate.The scientific
program spans five days, from Mon, June 22, to Fri, June 26, 2020,
every day from around 14:00 CET to around 20:00 CET. The detailed
program is available at the conference website:
https://socg20.inf.ethz.ch/program

Invited speakers:
Olga Sorkine-Hornung (ETH Zurich)
Xavier Pennec (INRIA Sophia Antipolis)

Registration is open. Early registration (with lower fees) is still
available until June 14, 2020 (CET)

Format: We want to keep the talks to be live talks with the
possibility of direct interaction between speakers and audience. As a
platform we will use Zoom (https://zoom.us/), which provides
videoconferencing scaled for many participants with screen sharing for
slides, recording, etc., and is very easy to use, with an intuitive
interface.

Complementary to the live sessions, we plan to record the talks and
make them available to the participants for asynchronous viewing
during the week of CG Week 2020 and the following week. We also plan
to setup a persistent chat (independent from Zoom), for use both
during the live sessions and independently for asynchronous questions
and discussions.

Looking forward to see you at the first online CG Week!
/Michael
