INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON "DIGITAL AND COMPUTATIONAL VIDEO" DCV'01 - Call for papers http://ee.eng.usf.edu/DCV01 February 9, 2001 Embassy Suites Hotel, USF Tampa, Florida, U.S.A. GENERAL DESCRIPTION The Second International Workshop on Digital and Computational Video (DCV'01) presents and explores the trends in digital and computational video including, but not limited to, the applications, technology and mathematical aspects of this 21st century area. This one-day workshop aims to bring together researchers and users to share their experiences, vision and methodologies. By providing a forum which would include experts from mathematical sciences, medicine, engineering, computer science, education, fine arts and television, it intends to cross-fertilize ideas and to bridge cross-cultural differences. The workshop will include keynote presentations and regular paper presentations on topics including, but not limited to: o Telemedicine o Stereo vision o Digital television o Computed medical imaging o Standards conversion o Mass communications o Motion estimation o Mathematical morphology and compensation o Networked video o 3D modeling o Distance learning o Digital arts and animation o Camera on a chip o Algorithms and software o Microelectronics for Video LOCATION The workshop will be held in Tampa, on Florida's west coast. It is widely known that two of the best beaches in the world are located on this coast; therefore the Tampa Bay area is an exceptional vacation destination, or for that matter a conference destination. The workshop site is next door to the famous Busch Gardens, and only an hour away from the Walt Disney World. Tampa is also the home to the University of South Florida, the intellectual and technological center for nearly four million people. The weather in early February is usually mild and very pleasant. PAPERS The program committee invites authors to submit a three to four page summary of their paper. Papers should clearly describe the nature of the work, explain its significance, highlight its novel features, and project its scientific, medical, industrial or other applications significance. Authors of selected papers will be requested to prepare a manuscript for the workshop proceedings, which will be published and mailed to the participants after the workshop. Final paper length should not exceed ten (10) pages. o Summaries due October 27, 2000 o Notification of acceptance November 24, 2000 o Final camera ready manuscript due Feb. 9, 2001 Submit all summaries by email to: For General Information, contact: M.
