SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS
XXII Brazilian Symposium on Computer Graphics and Image Processing

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
October 11-14, 2009

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The Brazilian Symposium on Computer Graphics and Image Processing,
SIBGRAPI 2009, will be held at the Pontifícia Universidade Católica do
Rio de Janeiro (PUC-Rio), Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil, between October
11th and 14th, 2009.

SIBGRAPI is the most important Brazilian meeting in Computer
Graphics, Image Processing, and Computer Vision. Started in 1988 with the
sponsorship of the Brazilian Computer Society, this will be its 22th
edition. IEEE CS Press has published the proceedings of SIBGRAPI since
1997. All full papers are double blindly reviewed by three experts in the topic
of the work, and all papers considered high quality will be accepted.
As in the previews SIBGRAPI editions, the authors of the best papers can be
invited to submit extended versions of their work to international
journals in the field (best computer graphics papers have been published in Computer
Graphics Forum and The Visual Computer Journal, whereas the best image processing and computer
vision papers have been published in Pattern Recognition Letters,
Image and Vision Computing and Computerized Medical Imaging and Graphics).
A novelty for this year is the beginning of a cooperation with the Eurographics Association, increasing
the visibility of the Brazilian symposium considerably.

SIBGRAPI 2009 will be organized in collaboration with SBGames, the
largest conference in South America for Digital Game and Entertainment (www.sbc.org.br/sbgames).

As invited speakers, we have the pleasure to announce the presence of:

Prof. Jean-Daniel Boissonnat (http://www-sop.inria.fr/geometrica/team/JeanDaniel.Boissonnat/),
Prof. Olga Sorkine (http://www.cs.nyu.edu/~sorkine/),
Prof. Janusz Konrad (http://iss.bu.edu/jkonrad/), and
Prof. Max A. Viergever (http://www.cs.uu.nl/staff/max.html).

Additional invited talks may be confirmed at a later date.

We invite you to participate by submitting your work in all areas of
Computer Graphics,Image Processing and Computer Vision.
The Full Papers are scheduled as oral presentations and published in the IEEE Proceedings
(see http://www.matmidia.mat.puc-rio.br/sibgrapi2009/index.php/calls-for-participation/full-papers
for details of how to submit the paper).
