SCOPE
The International Conference on Information Visualization Theory and
Applications aims at becoming a major point of contact between
researchers, engineers and practitioners in Information Visualization.
The conference will be structured along several topics related to
Information Visualization.
We welcome papers describing original work in any of the topics
listed below. Papers describing advanced prototypes, systems, tools and
techniques as well as general survey papers indicating future directions
are also encouraged. Paper acceptance will be based on quality,
relevance to the conference theme and originality. The conference
program will include both oral and poster presentations.
Special sessions, dedicated to case-studies and commercial
presentations, as well as technical tutorials, dedicated to
technical/scientific topics, are also envisaged. Companies interested in
presenting their products/methodologies or researchers interested in
lecturing a tutorial are invited to contact the conference secretariat.

PAPER SUBMISSION
Authors should submit a paper in English, carefully checked for
correct grammar and spelling, addressing one or several of the
conference areas or topics. Each paper should clearly indicate the
nature of its technical/scientific contribution, and the problems,
domains or environments to which it is applicable. To facilitate the
double-blind paper evaluation method, authors are kindly requested to
produce and provide the paper WITHOUT any reference to any of the
authors, including the authors’ personal details, the acknowledgments
section of the paper and any other reference that may disclose the
authors’ identity.
Only original papers should be submitted. Authors are advised to
read INSTICC's ethical norms regarding plagiarism and self-plagiarism
thoroughly before submitting and must make sure that their submissions
do not substantially overlap work which has been published elsewhere or
simultaneously submitted to a journal or another conference with
proceedings. Papers that contain any form of plagiarism will be rejected
without reviews.
Authors can submit their work in the form of a Regular Paper,
representing completed and validated research, or as a Position Paper,
portraying a short report of work in progress or an arguable opinion
about an issue discussing ideas, facts, situations, methods, procedures
or results of scientific research focused on one of the conference topic
areas. All papers must be submitted through the online submission
platform PRIMORIS and should follow the instructions and templates that
can be found under Guidelines and Templates. After the paper submission
has been successfully completed, authors will receive an automatic
confirmation e-mail.
PUBLICATIONS
All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on paper and on CD-ROM support.
SCITEPRESS is a member of CrossRef (http://www.crossref.org/) and every paper is given a DOI (Digital Object Identifier).
All papers presented at the conference venue will be available at the SCITEPRESS Digital Library.
The proceedings will be submitted for indexation by Thomson Reuters
Conference Proceedings Citation Index (ISI), INSPEC, DBLP, EI (Elsevier
Engineering Village Index) and Scopus.
