An International Journal of Systems & Applications in Computer Graphics

Computers & Graphics is dedicated to disseminate information on research and applications of computer graphics (CG) techniques. The journal encourages articles on:
1. Research and applications of interactive computer graphics. We are particularly interested in novel interaction techniques and applications of CG to problem domains.
2. State-of-the-art papers on late-breaking, cutting-edge research on CG.
3. Information on innovative uses of graphics principles and technologies.
4. Tutorial papers on both teaching CG principles and innovative uses of CG in education.

Computers & Graphics provides a medium to communicate information concerning interactive CG and CG applications. The journal focuses on interactive computer graphics, visualization and novel input modalities including virtual environments, and, within this scope, on graphical models, data structures, languages, picture manipulation algorithms and related software.

Replicability Badge and Software Publication
Computers and Graphics is collaborating with the GRSI (Graphics Replicability Stamp Initiative), an independent group of volunteers who help the community by enabling sharing of code and data as a community resource for non-commercial use. The volunteers review the submitted code (and data) and certify its replicability. Note that an accepted paper will be published independently of the GRSI application outcome. However, if the paper receives the Replicability Stamp, it will be given additional exposure by having an attached Replicability Badge, and by being listed on the Replicability Stamp website. See http://www.replicabilitystamp.org for further information.

We invite you to convert your open source software with GRSI Badge into an additional journal publication in Software Impacts, a multi-disciplinary open access journal. Software Impacts provides a scholarly reference to software that has been used to address a research challenge. The journal disseminates impactful and re-usable scientific software through Original Software Publications which describe the application of the software to research and the published outputs.

Special Issue on the 29th International ACM Conference on 3D Web Technology
提出日: 2025-02-01

The 29th International ACM Conference on 3D Web Technology (Web3D 2024) is a major annual event for the 3D Web community. Sponsored by ACM SIGGRAPH, in cooperation with Web3D Consortium and supported by Eurographics. This conference is hosted by the CCG/ZGDV Institute in Guimarães, on the Azurém Campus of the University of Minho. The purpose of the Conference is to study and share the principles of the latest advancements in interactive 3D technologies, including the Metaverse.

The conference will bring together experts from around the world to discuss the latest research, development, and practices related to these technologies. This year’s conference theme is “The Metaverse Workplace'' an integration of virtual reality, augmented reality, and other immersive technologies into the traditional workplace, creating a digital environment to collaborate, communicate, and work together.

Special Issue on Smart Tools and Applications in Graphics (STAG 2024)
提出日: 2025-03-28

This special section features a selection of the best papers presented at the 2024 edition of the international conference Smart Tools and Applications in Graphics (STAG), the annual event of the Eurographics Italian Chapter (EG-IT). STAG 2024 is organized by the University of Verona and held in Verona (Italy) on 14-15 November 2024. The conference focus is on novel research ideas and applications in Computer Graphics, Geometric Modeling and Visual Computing. The selection process was based on the conference reviewers' comments and collegial discussions by the Program Chairs and a small committee of IPC members. The authors of the selected papers were invited to submit a significantly extended and revised version of their papers to C&G which were subjected to a further review cycle.
