2014 Program

This year we received 17 submissions, each one was reviewed by three members of the program committee; and the chairs accepted 11 papers for presentation at EuroVA. The papers are four page short-papers with one extra page for references prepared using the EuroVis formatting guidelines. Authors of accepted papers give an oral presentation and the Proceedings are published by the Eurographics Association.

We take this opportunity to thank the program committee for all their time and effort reviewing the papers. As always deadlines are tight and therefore we are thankful to all the reviewers for getting their reviews back to us on time.

Finally, we are delighted to welcome Professor William Wong from Middlesex University to deliver the keynote address, and also Dr. Petra Insenberg from INRIA  the AVIZ research group who will provide our capstone address.
