Dear Colleagues,
The 8th international conference on Scalable Vector Graphics will
take place from August 30 to September 2, in Paris, France, hosted by
Telecom ParisTech. At this conference you can learn about subjects
varying from specialized technical visualizations to interactive
multimedia art. On the program there are presentations, beginner and
advanced level workshops, and the opportunity to meet people from the
SVG community, industry and the W3C SVG Working Group.
The SVG Open 2010 organizing committee is looking for contributors
presenting a paper or teaching a course. Presenters are asked to
submit an extended abstract in English with an approximate length of
400 to 800 words by March 31 to http://www.svgopen.org/2010/. The
abstracts are reviewed by a reviewing committee and presenters will be
informed about acceptance on or before May 12. If your abstract is
accepted, you will be asked to submit your full paper by July 31,
according to instructions that will be sent to you. Accepted
abstracts, papers and presentations will be published in web
proceedings.
Following is a list of potential presentation topics:
• Mobile (handheld, in-car) Solutions
• SVG Authoring Tools
• Publishing and Printing with SVG
• SVG Text and Internationalization
• Accessibility Issues with SVG
• Location-based Services
• Business Cases and Case Studies
• Workflow for Creating and Using SVG
• SVG and Digital Television
• Graphic Design with SVG
• SVG for Webmapping and Online GIS/GML
• SVG for Multimedia Presentations

• GUI Frameworks for Web Applications
• File Format Conversion
• Case Studies
• SVG Wow!
Potential course instructors are asked to submit a course outline by
march 31. The outlines will be reviewed by a committee and
instructors will be informed about acceptance on or before May 12.
Accepted course instructors will receive a free conference pass and
admission to the dinner event. Accepted course outlines will be
published as course descriptions in the program. Therefore they
should be directed at those who might register for the course rather
than the reviewers. Courses are 150 minutes in length, scheduled for
the morning and afternoon at the day before or after the main
conference. We are interested in proposals for both beginner courses
and advanced courses to cater to the diverse interests of all
conference attendees. Here is a list of topics of potential interest
for courses. Feel free to either volunteer for one of these or
propose your own topic.
• Introduction to SVG
• SVG Authoring Techniques
• Creating Mobile SVG content
• UI Design
• Using SVG Tools
• CSS
• XSLT
• SMIL Animation
• ECMAScript and the DOM
• Graphic Design
• SVG Filter Effects
• Rendering Algorithms
• Generating SVG from Database Content
Thank you for considering a paper or course abstract submission.
Looking forward to seeing you in Paris!
The SVG Open 2010 organizing committee.
