ISVC provides a common forum for researchers, scientists, engineers and
practitioners to present their latest research findings, ideas,
developments and applications in visual computing. We seek papers
contributing to the state of the art and practice in any of the four main
areas of visual computing: (1) computer vision, (2) computer graphics, (3)
virtual reality, and (4) visualization. A "best paper" award ($500) will
be sponsored by industry (TBA). The symposium's proceedings will be
published by Springer-Verlag in Lecture Notes in Computer Science.
