SUBMISSION DEADLINE:
20 April 2016, 23:59 UTC/GMT (Workshops’ Proposals)
15 JULY 2016, 23:59 UTC/GMT (Workshops’ Papers)
SIGGRAPH Asia 2016 is now calling for paper submissions for workshops to be held in conjunction with the main conference. Workshops provide participants with the opportunity to present and discuss novel research ideas on active and emerging topics of computer graphics and interactive techniques. Each workshop should generate ideas that give the community a new, organized way of thinking about a specific topic, or ideas that suggest promising directions for future research. We particularly encourage the fostering of topics or communities that do not have a “home” in other venues. Arranging a workshop is an opportunity to move the existing field forward or to build a new community.
Workshops will take place on 5 December 2016, in The Venetian Macao, Macao. Two workshop formats will be available: half-day and full-day. Half-day workshops should be scheduled to have two 1.5-hour sessions, with one 15-minute break. Full-day workshops should be scheduled to have four 1.5-hour sessions, with a mid-morning break, a lunch break and a mid-afternoon break.
SIGGRAPH Asia 2016 is now calling for Paper Submissions to the following Workshops’ Topics which will be presented at the event.
- Virtual Reality meets Physical Reality: Modelling and Simulating Virtual Humans and Environments (Full Day)
- Crafting for Spirituality: A Pedagogic Project for Digital heritage: Digital Sculpting, Projection Mapping and Beyond (Half Day)
- Creating Virtual Environments with 3D Printing and Photogrammetry (Half Day)

Evaluation
All submissions will be reviewed by a jury of academic and industry professionals. The workshops Committee Members are responsible for conducting the jury process in order to set up a high-quality program, with exciting oral sessions.
Notice To Contributors
All contributors to SIGGRAPH Asia Annual Conferences are now required to use ACM's rights management system to grant rights to publish accepted content rather than through the online submission system. Essentially, submission tracking, jury review, and acceptance remain the same, but now the rights management is through ACM, the parent organization of SIGGRAPH Asia.
You will be asked to complete an ACM rights management form, which includes permission to record and distribute the audio and video of your recorded presentation through official channels of ACM/SIGGRAPH Asia. For most content types, this will be a Permission and Release form, which allows authors to retain copyright.
More Information on these options (the FAQ is particularly useful)
Samples of the ACM Copyright Form and the ACM Publishing License
As a contributor to an ACM-sponsored event, the following expectations apply to you, should your content be accepted for presentation:
- You have the permission to use everything that is in your presentation. This includes securing permission to use third-party material, and providing documentation of that permission to ACM. (More information on the proper use of third-party material in your presentation)
- If you are using copyrighted musical compositions in your presentation, you must secure performing rights licenses.
- You must have the authority to grant ACM the right to distribute your presentation.
Once your contribution is accepted, you will receive a link via email to the appropriate form for your contribution.
Upon Acceptance
Once your contribution is accepted, you will receive a link via email to the appropriate form for your contribution. You will be required to prepare the final print-ready file following the specifications in the acceptance notification.
Please note: The schedule to provide your final material after receiving the acceptance notification is very tight. Please plan your personal schedule accordingly.
For instructions about preparation and delivery of your final content for publications, please carefully follow the instructions in the acceptance letter.
You will be able to update your basic submission information and any final materials so that it can be included in the conference program and web site. This information needs to be finalized two weeks after receipt of acceptance notifications. Please be prepared to deliver your final versions of your information and work on or before these dates.
