日本データベース学会の皆様、 お茶の水女子大学の伊藤貴之と申します。 （同じ文面を複数お受け取りになりましたらご容赦ください。） 10月13〜18日にフロリダで開催される可視化のトップ国際会議IEEE VIS (https://ieeevis.org/)にて、昨年に引き続き、Short Paper Co-chairを 担当しています。 ショートペーパー（4ページ＋レファレンス）の投稿期限は4月30日です。 可視化に関する幅広い内容の投稿を受け付けております。 URLは以下のとおりです。このメールの末尾にもCFPを転載します。 https://ieeevis.org/year/2024/info/call-participation/shortpapers 関係する研究に従事される方がいらっしゃいましたら、投稿や参加をご検討 頂けますと幸いです。 ---- Short Paper Call for Participation IEEE VIS 2024 solicits submissions in a short paper format. The Short Papers committee welcomes submissions describing original work. The work should focus on concise research contributions, incremental work such as follow-up extensions, evaluations of existing methods, replication studies, or exploratory work. The committee also welcomes papers describing new systems or tools that offer practical value. Short Papers often fall into one or more of five main categories: technique or algorithm, system or tool, application or design study, empirical study, theory, or model. The contributions of a short paper should be commensurate with the nature of the paper. Technique or algorithm papers should provide clear yet concise technical contributions. System or tool papers should state the value, articulate the target audience, and make an effort toward accessibility (e.g., software release). Papers focusing on visualization applications or design studies should demonstrate lessons learned or insights gleaned for visualization research on which future contributors can build. Empirical study papers should justify the validity and importance of the results, including, where appropriate, the definition of hypotheses, tasks, data sets, the rigorous collection and examination/analysis/coding of data, the selection of subjects and cases, as well as validation, discussion, and conclusions. Theory or model papers should illuminate how visualization techniques complement and exploit properties of human vision and cognition, as well as how researchers conduct effective and rigorous visualization studies. The short paper submission deadline is April 30, 2024, creating an opportunity to showcase late-breaking research results. Submission Guidelines: Short papers can be up to four pages plus up to one page of references. Submissions will be in the VGTC conference two-column format, in line with the IEEE VIS formatting guidelines. https://tc.computer.org/vgtc/publications/conference/ Short Papers allow single-blind (not anonymized) or double-blind (anonymized) submissions while reviewers’ identities are not revealed. Authors may choose whether to anonymize their submission or not. Double-blind submissions must NOT include author names or institutions on the cover page of the initial submission, and authors should make an effort to ensure that there is no revealing information in the text, such as apparent citations to authors’ previous work, or making acknowledgments to colleagues of long standing. Publication Details: Accepted short papers will be presented at the VIS conference. They will also be included in the conference proceedings and published in IEEE Xplore and assigned a DOI. Authors of accepted short papers may subsequently submit to TVCG a full paper on the same topic, consistent with the TVCG standard requiring that papers previously published in conference proceedings make additional substantial scientific contributions that build upon the material of the conference publication or include this material as a part of a larger research effort. The authors are encouraged to mention this in their cover letter, provide a copy of the previous conference submission, and outline the added contributions. Providing these materials will help TVCG reviewers to better gauge the scientific value of the work and defuse any possible misconceptions. TVCG papers, including the ones presented as VIS short papers, can be presented at IEEE VIS. Scientific work builds naturally on previous work, including work published as a short paper at VIS. Accepted VIS short papers can contribute to VIS full paper submissions in a future year. But, such submissions should not contain verbatim copies of previous content. Furthermore, any subsequent full paper submission to VIS must represent a novel scientific contribution. Important Dates: Submission Deadline: April 30, 2024 (no separate abstract deadline) Notification: June 15, 2024 Submission of Camera-Ready Final Version: August 8, 2024 All deadlines are at 11:59pm (23:59) AoE Anywhere on Earth (AoE).
