> 

> - Workshops

> Conference workshops typically provide valuable in-depth discussions of

> specific topics in computer entertainment technology. If you are working in

> an emerging area in entertainment computing, please consider organizing a

> community. These workshops may consist of both invited and contributed

> papers that will highlight exciting new developments and currents trends of

> research.

> - Tutorials

> Tutorial proposals will be considered for half-day and full-day tutorials.
