########################################################################

The European Workshop on Computational Geometry will be held in March
13-14-15 2000, at Eilat Club Hotel, Eilat, Israel.

The European Workshop on Computational Geometry is an important scientific
event in which established researchers from academia, R&D people from
industry, and research students and postdocs meet and present their current
work, establishing a scientific interaction and international collaboration.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
TOPICS:

The topics of interest include but are not limited to:

 Analysis of geometric algorithms and data structures,
 theoretical issues arising from implementations,
 geometric optimization,
 analysis of geometric configurations
And applications of computational geometry to
 robotics and virtual worlds,
 computer graphics,
 simulation and visualization,
 image processing,
 geometric and solid modeling,
 computer aided geometric design,
 manufacturing,
 geographical information systems, and
 structural molecular biology.


------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUBMISSIONS:

A title and a brief abstract (2-4 pages) should be submitted (either PS files
by email to cg2000 at cs.bgu.ac.il or camera-ready papers by regular mail to the
address below) before January 7th, 2000.  The abstracts will be collected
and distributed among the participants at the Workshop.

Deadline for submissions : January 7th, 2000

A special issue of ``Computational Geometry: Theory and Applications''
will be dedicated to outstanding works presented at the workshop.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
FINANCIAL SUPPORT:

The most important goal of the workshop is to allow  as many
young researchers --  European and Israeli PhD students and postdocs
--  to participate and intellectually profit from the workshop.
We are trying to get financial support to cover part of the travel from
Europe to Israel, and perhaps some of the hotel expences.
See below for deadline for support application.

EILAT

Eilat is a diving and snorkeling resort town, with wonderful beaches,
food and atmosphere.
The hotel is a new, large and luxurious five-star hotel, located in the North
beach of Eilat.  It is close to the town center and has many
recreation facilities.

PETRA

If there is a large enough number of people interested in going to ancient
Nabattian town, Petra, in the red mountains of Jordan, we will organize a one-day
excursion on the day following the meeting.
