INVITED LECTURES
It is a special pleasure to announce that
Alexander Schrijver (Amsterdam) and Eduard Groeller (Vienna)
have accepted our invitation to present invited lectures. Their talks
will mark extreme points of the wide spectrum of graph drawing, the
mathematical foundations and the computer graphics, respectively.
SUBMISSION OF PAPERS AND SOFTWARE
Most important: Please remember the submission deadline: May 28, 2001
The GD2001 web site is now fully set up to support comfortable
submission of papers and software. Indeed a number of submissions have
already been received.
There have been several requests concerning the software submission
rules. We found that requesting a poster by May 28 was not a good
idea, so we relax this requirement and redefine an acceptable
submission as follows:
* SOFTWARE: A contribution to the software exhibition consists of
the software in executable format for Windows, Linux, or Solaris
and a 2 page short description in Springer LNCS-style format,
including fax number and e-mail address. Accepted software will
have to be documented by a poster at the conference.
Participants and guests of GD2001 will have the opportunity to use the
software during the conference. In collaboration with the
authors/owners, the organizers guarantee that they will make sure that
the software is adequately protected and the production of
unauthorized copies is prevented.
GRAPH DRAWING CONTEST
The graph drawing competition and the nomination of the winners has
been among the highlights of the past graph drawing symposia. It's
both fun and a challenge and has inspired new research in graph
drawing. See the GD2001 web site for the complete set of challenges
and data.
REGISTRATION
Please register at the GD2001 web site at your earliest convenience.
ACCOMMODATION
September is high season in Vienna; it may be hard to get a hotel room
within walking distance after May 2001. Therefore, we recommend
reservation of a hotel room as soon as possible. The GD2001 web site
gives you support by listing several hotels you may want to consider.
CONFERENCE DINNER
The conference dinner will be at Stift Klosterneuburg near the city
of Vienna.
PLEASE VISIT THE GD2001 WEB SITE!
If you have not visited the GD2001 web site lately, please try: Many
new items have been added recently, and we'll keep it up-to-date.
SPECIAL FINANCIAL SUPPORT
The organizers have applied for funding the participation of young
researchers from eastern European countries. Please contact them if
you are eligible and interested.

*** Scope: ***
Theory - Algorithms - Software. The symposium is a forum for
researchers, practitioners, developers, and users working on all
aspects of graph visualization and representation. The range of
issues considered in graph drawing includes graph algorithms,
graph theory, computational geometry, topology, planarity issues,
combinatorics, optimization, heuristics, local search, computational
cartography, information visualization, visual languages, visual
perception, computer-human interaction, applications, and practical
systems.
Graph drawing is becoming increasingly important in many applications
including visualization tasks in software engineering (e.g., automatic
layout of UML-diagrams), business process modeling (e.g., organization
diagrams, event-driven process chains), and computational biology
(e.g., display of biochemical pathways). Researchers and practitioners
with an interest in these or other applications are especially welcome
to participate.
*** Software_Exhibition: ***
During the conference there will be a graph drawing software
exhibition for which we hope to attract all state-of-the-art software
tools in graph drawing. The software will be accessible for all
conference participants on computers in the hall of the conference
building.
*** Graph_Drawing_Contest: ***
See the GD 2001 web site.
*** Location: ***
The conference will take place in the building of the Austrian Academy
of Sciences (picture on the 100 schilling bank note) which is located
in the center of Vienna at Dr. Ignaz Seipel Platz 2 (about 3 minutes
walking distance from Stephansdom).
*** Call_for_Papers_and_Software: ***
* PAPERS: We invite papers describing original research of
theoretical or practical significance to graph drawing.
A submission consists of a standard PostScript or PDF file of
an extended abstract or full draft paper of at most 15 pages
in Springer LNCS-style format, including fax number and e-mail
address.
* SOFTWARE: A contribution to the software exhibition consists of
the software in executable format for Windows, Linux, or Solaris
and a 2 page short description in Springer LNCS-style format,
including fax number and e-mail address. Accepted software will
have to be documented by a poster shortly before the conference.
Please e-mail submissions to gd2001 at ads.tuwien.ac.at by May 28, 2001.
See http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html for Springer
LNCS-style format requirements.
*** Proceedings: ***
Accepted papers (at most 15 pages) and software (2 pages) will be
published in the conference proceedings, which will appear in the
series Lecture Notes in Computer Science of Springer-Verlag. The
camera-ready copy as well as electronic files of accepted papers and
software are due at the conference. A selection of the exhibited
software will be invited to contribute to a book on state-of-the-art
graph drawing software. This book will be one of the first volumes
in a new book series called "Mathematics and Visualization" that will
be launched by Springer-Verlag.
