*SUBMISSIONS *

**

*PAPERS* presenting original work in 3D web research and application may 
be submitted in a long or short form (up to 9 or 4 pages, EXCLUSIVE of 
the page(s) devoted to bibliographic references and short appendices). 
Do include a full citation list. Submissions will be peer-reviewed. 
Accepted papers will be included in the ACM Digital Library and 
submitted to major indexing services, such as Web of Science, DBLP, and 
Scopus.

*POSTERS* present results of ongoing or recently completed work in 3D 
web research and application. The poster format offers the opportunity 
to interactively present and discuss interesting results to the Web3D 
community. Posters should be submitted in the form of abstracts (2 
pages), which after acceptance will be published in the conference 
proceedings. Accepted posters have the option of being presented in the 
general SIGGRAPH Poster Session.

*TUTORIALS* are an opportunity to present introductory and advanced 
applications of 3D web technologies to students and to experienced 
practitioners. Tutorial subjects can include practices for authoring 
interactive 3D scenes and in using 3D graphics in diverse application 
areas. Especially welcome are tutorials in the use of open-source 
software and web applications, which can be presented in hands-on 
sessions at the conference.

*WORKSHOPS* provide a forum for researchers and practitioners from both 
the web and 3D multimedia communities to discuss and exchange positions 
on current and emergent 3D web topics. Workshops may take the form of 
presentation sessions moderated by workshop organizers or open 
discussions of new knowledge on a specific topic of interest.

*DEMONSTRATIONS* enable artists, content designers, and developers to 
share their innovative 3D works at the conference. Artworks and 
applications developed for various platforms, including the web, 
desktop, mobile and VR/AR systems, are welcome. Demonstrations should be 
submitted in the form of short descriptions (2 pages), which after 
acceptance may be published in the conference proceedings.

*INDUSTRIAL USE CASES* enable practitioners to demonstrate how 3D web 
technologies may be used in industrial applications. A special track 
during Web3D 2018 will be devoted to industrial use cases to share 
inspiration, best practice and requirements of using 3D in various 
application domains.

*COMPETITION (H-ANIM)* This annual competition is dedicated to showing 
how H-Anim and X3D graphics standards can be used for creating animated 
music videos. The competition is organized by the Korean Standards 
Association (KSA) and The Web3D Consortium. For competitors, attendance 
at the conference is not mandatory, but is encouraged.

*Questions *about the program and conference topics can be sent to 
program@web3d2019.org <mailto:program@web3d2019.org>
