From lindac at dimacs.rutgers.edu Thu Jul 1 14:45:40 2004 From: lindac at dimacs.rutgers.edu (Linda Casals) Date: Thu, 1 Jul 2004 14:45:40 -0400 (EDT) Subject: [Sy-cg-global] [Publicity-list] Symposium: 12th International Symposium on Graph Drawing Message-ID: <200407011845.OAA18602@dimacs.rutgers.edu> *********************************************************** Symposium: 12th International Symposium on Graph Drawing Dates: September 29 - October 2, 2004 Location: City College, CUNY, New York City, New York Organizers: Gary Bloom , City College, CUNY Peter Brab, City College, CUNY, co-chair Janos Pach, City College, CUNY, chair Farhad Shahrokhi, University of North Texas, co-chair Presented under the auspices of the Special Focus on Computational Geometry and Applications. **DIMACS co-sponsored event **************************************************************** Graph Drawing is concerned with the geometric representation of graphs and networks and is motivated by those applications where it is crucial to visualize structural information as graphs. Bridging the gap between theoretical advances and implemented solutions is an important aspect of the conference. Indeed, advances in graph drawing are a key factor in such technological areas as Web computing, e-commerce, VLSI circuit design, information systems, software engineering, computational cartography, bioinformatics, and networking. Researchers and practitioners working on theoretical and practical aspects of graph drawing are welcome to participate. Scope. The range of topics that are within the scope of the International Symposium on Graph Drawing includes (but is not limited to): * Visualization of computer networks and Web maps * Graph algorithms * Visualization of software engineering diagrams * Geometric graph theory and geometric computing * Software systems for graph visualization * Topology and planarity * Visualization of database schemas * Graph theory and optimization * Visualization of chemical structures and molecules Invited Speakers: Erik Demaine (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) Paul Seymour (Princeton University) ************************************************************************ Information on participation, registration, accomodations, and travel can be found at: http://dimacs.rutgers.edu/Workshops/GraphDrawings/ and http://www.gd2004.org/ For more information and questions about GD2004 please send email to chair at gd2004.org ********************************************************************
