Euler diagrams represent relationships between sets, including intersection, containment, and disjointness. These diagrams have become the foundations of various visual languages and have notably facilitated  the modelling of, and logical reasoning about, complex systems. Over the years, they have been extensively used in areas such as biosciences, business, criminology and national security to intuitively visualize relationships and relative cardinalities of sets.  This widespread adoption has allowed analysis of complex collections of data.

CALL FOR PAPERS


Euler Diagrams 2012: 3rd International Workshop on Euler Diagrams

Held in conjunction with Diagrams 2012 July 2, 2012 Canterbury, UK

Website: http://www.diagrams-conference.org/2012/content/3rd-international-workshop-euler-diagrams

Abstract submission deadline: Friday, March 30, 2012 Paper submission deadline: Friday, April 6, 2012




Euler diagrams represent relationships between sets, including intersection, containment, and disjointness. These diagrams have become the foundations of various visual languages and have notably facilitated the modelling of, and logical reasoning about, complex systems. Over the years, they have been extensively used in areas such as biosciences, business, criminology and national security to intuitively visualize relationships and relative cardinalities of sets. This widespread adoption has allowed analysis of complex collections of data.


The workshop will cover all aspects of Euler diagram research, including, but not limited to:


  • theoretical advances: drawability, layouts, logic, reasoning
  • software support: diagram generation, automated reasoning, data exploration
  • real-world applications: system modelling, information visualization, education
  • cognition and perceptual principles: readability, aesthetics, evaluation including comparison to other representations.


Recently, there have been significant advances in all of the above areas. This workshop of peer-reviewed submissions will afford the growing Euler diagrams community the opportunity to present and discuss new research, and share expertise. It is envisaged that this will stimulate collaborations on current and future research needs. This will be the third Euler diagrams workshop (after two successful workshops in 2004 and 2005) and will again bring together researchers with diverse backgrounds, from both academic and industry including: mathematicians, computer scientists, artificial intelligence experts, information designers, visualization experts, human-computer interaction experts and users from various application areas.


SUBMISSIONS

We solicit submission of:

- full papers (page limit to be announced), consisting of original research and surveys,

- short papers (page limit to be announced), consisting of systems descriptions, software demonstrations, and position statements, as well as original research contributions.

The formatting style and page limits will be announced. Papers should be submitted via EasyChair (https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ed2012).


PROCEEDINGS

Negotiations are ongoing for the formal publication of the proceedings. In addition, a special issue of a journal for extended versions of the best workshop papers is anticipated.
