Conference name: International Conference on Computer Graphics Theory and Applications (GRAPP) 

Venue: Rome-Italy


Event Date: 24-26 February, 2012

Scope

The International Conference on Computer Graphics Theory and Applications aims at becoming a major point of contact between researchers, engineers and practitioners in Computer Graphics. The conference will be structured along five main tracks, covering different aspects related to Computer Graphics, from Modelling to Rendering, including Animation, Interactive Environments and Social Agents In Computer Graphics.
