                  Call for Posters 
				 
                       GD 2016
					 
          24th International Symposium on 
      Graph Drawing and Network Visualization

       September 19-21, 2016 - Athens, Greece
          http://algo.math.ntua.gr/~gd2016/

===========================================================================

Graph Drawing is concerned with the geometric representation of graphs and
constitutes the algorithmic core of Network Visualization. Graph Drawing and
Network Visualization are motivated by applications where it is crucial to
visually analyze and interact with relational datasets. Examples of such
application areas include data science, social sciences, Web computing,
information systems, biology, geography, business intelligence, information
security and software engineering.

GD has been the main annual event in this area for more than 20 years. Its
focus is on combinatorial and algorithmic aspects of graph drawing as well as
the design of network visualization systems and interfaces. GD 2016 will be
hosted by the Institute of Communications and Computer Systems, an affiliate of
the National Technical University of Athens from September 19 to 21, 2016 in
Athens, Greece. Researchers and practitioners working on any aspect of graph
drawing and network visualization are invited to contribute papers and posters
and to participate in the symposium and the graph drawing contest.

POSTERS
-------

We invite authors to submit posters on graph drawing, network
visualization, and related areas. The poster session will provide a
forum for the communication of late-breaking research results (which
may also appear elsewhere) to the graph drawing and network
visualization community. Authors of posters should prepare an abstract
(up to two pages in unmodified LNCS style) that must be submitted
together with the poster. Abstracts of accepted posters will appear in
the conference proceedings (two pages), but will not be made available
for indexing. The maximum size for a poster is A0 (84.1 cm x 118.9
cm). The posters must be in portrait mode.

Poster Submissions
------------------

Each submission consists of two pdf files (the two-page abstract and
the poster) and must include names, email addresses and contact
information of the contributors. Contributions must be submitted via
EasyChair following the submission link provided on the conference web site.

Best Poster Award
-----------------

To recognize the effort of participants in preparing and presenting
their posters in a clear and elegant way, there will be a Best Poster
Award voted on by the GD 2016 attendees.
