==================
Call for Contributions
==================

40th European Workshop on Computational Geometry
March 13-15 2024, Ioannina, Greece
https://eurocg2024.math.uoi.gr/

EuroCG 2024 will be held March 13-15, 2024 in Ioannina, Greece. 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.

===============
Important Dates
===============

Submission Deadline: January 10, 2024
Acceptance Notification: February 12, 2024
Early Registration ends:  February 21, 2024
Camera-ready version:  February 21, 2024
EuroCG 2024: March 13-15, 2024
All deadlines are 23:59 AoE.

===============
Invited speakers
===============

- Walter Didimo (University of Perugia, Italy)
- Ioannis Emiris (Athena Research Center / National & Kapodistrian
University of Athens, Greece)
- Xavier Goaoc (Université de Lorraine, Nancy, France)

===============
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.

===========
Submission
===========

We invite authors to submit extended abstracts of their 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.

Authors must use the LaTeX class files eurocg24 and eurocg24-submission,
which are based on the LIPICS class file. These class files 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. A zip file containing an example of how to
use the class file can be found here.

Your submission should provide a clear statement of your results including
proofs. The main (175 line) body of your submission should be
self-contained and contain a clear and succinct description of your
results. Content that does not fit in the main body due to space
restrictions must be placed into a clearly marked appendix, which will only
be read at the discretion of the program committee.

================
Acceptance Policy
================

EuroCG is a non-competitive forum. We will accept all submissions which are
original, correct, well-presented, non-trivial, and in scope. The program
committee judges submissions on these five criteria, each of which can lead
to rejection. If a submission satisfies all criteria, then it will be
accepted: there is no competition against other submissions.

- Originality. If a submission does not contain original research by the
authors, or if there is good reason to believe this is the case, this is a
reason for rejection. We do not accept submissions which have already been
accepted for publication elsewhere. However, we do explicitly allow
submissions that are under review at another conference or journal (at the
time of submission to EuroCG).

- Correctness. If the main / a major result of a submission is not correct,
this is a reason for rejection. If an attentive reviewer cannot establish
correctness of the results from the content of the submission, this is a
reason for rejection. However, an acceptance at EuroCG is no correctness
guarantee.

- Presentation. If a submission is written in a way that makes it
unreadable, or it does not follow the submission guidelines as listed in
the call for contributions, this is a reason for rejection.

- Technical Depth. If a submission is trivial, this is a reason for
rejection. However, there is no “minimum level” of technical depth required.

- Scope. If a submission is out of scope, this is a reason for rejection.
However, we wish to be inclusive in our interpretation of scope, which
includes but is not limited to the list of topics in the call for
contributions.

============
Proceedings
============

EuroCG does not have formally reviewed proceedings. A booklet of abstracts,
without ISBN, will be accessible online on the website 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 presentation 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 Computational Geometry
Theory and Applications (CGTA) journal.

Authors of accepted submissions are expected to present their work at the
conference (in-person). Failure to do so, may result in removal of the
contribution from the booklet of abstracts and conference website.

There will also be a voting for the Best Student Presentation.
