High-Performance Graphics 2014
High-Performance Graphics is the leading international forum for performance-oriented graphics and imaging systems research including innovative algorithms, efficient implementations, languages, parallelism, compilers, parallelism, hardware and architectures for high-performance graphics. High-Performance Graphics was founded in 2009 to synthesize and broaden two important and well-respected conferences in computer graphics:
Graphics Hardware and Interactive Ray Tracing. The conference brings together researchers, engineers, and architects to discuss the complex interactions of parallel hardware, novel programming models, and efficient algorithms in the design of systems for current and future graphics and visual computing applications.
Topics include (but are not limited to):
Hardware and systems for high-performance graphics and visual computing
Graphics hardware simulation, optimization, and performance measurement
Shading architectures
Novel fixed-function hardware design
Hardware for accelerating computer
Hardware design for mobile, embedded, integrated, and low-power devices
Cloud-accelerated graphics systems
Novel display technologies
Virtual and augmented reality systems
High-performance computer vision and image processing techniques
High-performance algorithms for computational photography, video, and computer vision
Hardware architectures for image and signal processors (ISPs)
