CONFERENCE THEME
----------------
An unstoppable revolution is underway, made possible by the
technological developments that enable computing with visuals.
This new revolution is about real time access and sharing of digital
information consisting not only of texts and sounds but powerful
realistic or imagined visuals and explorable 3D worlds, enabling
truly interactive multiparticipant, multisensory, multimodal and
multimedia communication. The next generation of computers will
build in audio, visual and 3D graphics processing capabilities at
the core level. This international conference in India will bring
together renowned world experts both from the academic and industrial
fields, providing participants with the unique opportunity of
acquiring exciting technological know-how.
The primary theme of the conference is "Visual Computing" covering
all aspects and domains -- 3D Geometry, Image-based Techniques,
Animation, Virtual Environments, User-interfaces, Web-based Graphics,
Hardware and Multimedia. ICVC99 is structured around a number of
theme programmes, with equal emphasis on technical content in each.
CONFERENCE TOPICS
Papers are solicited on conference topics listed below and also on
any other topics that fall within the theme of the conference.

ABOUT THE LOCATION -- GOA
-------------------------
Goa shines brightly on the tourist map of the world. Not only does it
offer the Sun, Sea and the Sand - but gleaming whitewashed churches with
Portuguese-style facades pepper the hillsides, rice paddies and dense
coconut palm groves, while crumbling forts guard rocky capes and estuary
entrances.
Goa's 105 km coastline with it's 40 beaches, broken up with idyllic palm
fringed beaches, pose a delight for swimmers, anglers, watersport buffs
and sunbathers. Aside from all these - Goa is also known for the oldest
church in Asia coupled with ancient Indian temples which present an
amalgam of cultures seldom found anywhere else. Goa's well known for its
exotic fresh spices and its cuisine is well known for it's spice and variety
in every corner of the world.
VENUE (tentative)
Cidade de Goa Beach Resort is a luxury beach resort designed like a
Portugese Hill town in a Goan setting. It is built in 5 split levels
immediately overlooking the sea and an exclusive beach private in character.
Bordering the beach are 22 acres of extensive lawns with nature trails,
hammocks, two garden restaurants, tennis courts and an exclusive health
farm. The ambience is ideal for a relaxed conference or a holiday.
