Those submitting content to a SIGGRAPH conference have the option of donating materials of educational value to ACM SIGGRAPH online resources for the benefit of the education community. Learn more.

 

For more information about uploading files for your submission, please see Uploading Files.

 

For additional submission information, please see the FAQs.

Evaluation

All submissions will be reviewed by a jury of academic and industry professionals in computer graphics, animation, games, interactive techniques, art, and related fields. The Posters Committee is responsible for conducting the jury process in order to set up a high-quality program, with attractive posters sessions.

Notice To Contributors

All contributors to SIGGRAPH Asia Annual Conferences are now required to use ACM's rights management system to grant rights to publish accepted content rather than through the online submission system. Essentially, submission tracking, jury review, and acceptance remain the same, but now the rights management is through ACM, the parent organization of SIGGRAPH Asia.

You will be asked to complete an ACM rights management form, which includes permission to record and distribute the audio and video of your recorded presentation through official channels of ACM/SIGGRAPH Asia. For most content types, this will be a Permission and Release form, which allows authors to retain copyright.

More Information on these options (the FAQ is particularly useful)
Samples of the ACM Copyright Form and the ACM Publishing License

As a contributor to an ACM-sponsored event, the following expectations apply to you, should your content be accepted for presentation:

  • You have the permission to use everything that is in your presentation. This includes securing permission to use third-party material, and providing documentation of that permission to ACM. (More information on the proper use of third-party material in your presentation)
  • If you are using copyrighted musical compositions in your presentation, you must secure performing rights licenses.
  • You must have the authority to grant ACM the right to distribute your presentation.

Once your contribution is accepted, you will receive a link via email to the appropriate form for your contribution.

Upon Acceptance

If your work is accepted as a Poster, you will be required to prepare the final print-ready poster file following the specifications in the acceptance notification. Please note: The schedule to provide your final material after receiving the acceptance notification is very tight. Please plan your personal schedule accordingly.

During the poster presentation session, the poster must be staffed at all times by at least one person, and you are encouraged to bring a portable computer to demo your work. The computer should be well charged, because electrical power may not be available. Do not leave your computer or other equipment unattended with the poster. Posters are displayed in unsecured areas.

For instructions about preparation and delivery of your final content for publications, see the poster format examples. Please carefully follow the instructions in the acceptance letter.

You will be able to update your basic submission information and any final materials so that it can be included in the conference program and website. This information needs to be finalized one week after receipt of acceptance notifications. Please be prepared to deliver your final versions of your information and work on or before these dates.

 

Presenter and Contributor Recognition

Please see the Recognition Policy for a summary of what you will receive if your work and/or proposal are accepted by SIGGRAPH Asia 2015.

Presenters are expected to cover their own travel costs, which are not covered by SIGGRAPH Asia 2015. You can apply for a 25% discount per accepted submission via the submission system. One contributor per accepted Poster has to register with a Basic Conference or Full Conference registration in order for the work to be published and presented at SIGGRAPH Asia.

 

Publication

All work selected for the SIGGRAPH Asia 2015 Posters will be documented in the SIGGRAPH 2015 website and ACM Digital Library.

FAQs

 

Poster Submission
Poster Creation & Presentation

 

Poster Submission

 

Should I submit a digital version of the actual poster for jury review?

No, this is not necessary. Poster submissions are evaluated based on their abstracts, supporting material, and research value. If you would like to provide a digital version of your poster, you may do so as a supplementary image.

 

Should my poster abstract submission be author blind? Should I include line numbers?

No. Poster abstract submissions should include author name and affiliation, as well as title of the work. You can prepare your poster submission according to the ACM SIGGRAPH formatting instructions.

 

Can I include a supplementary video with my poster submission?

Yes! If your submission has an interactive, animation, or simulation component, we strongly encourage you to submit a video demonstrating your work in action, as it is very difficult to evaluate your work without this. Videos can be included as part of the poster presentation session.

 

The SIGGRAPH Asia 2015 English Review Service failed our schedule, so it is SIGGRAPH Asia's fault that our proposal is late. Can I have an extension?

No. The English Review Service makes no guarantee for service turn-around. It is also administered separately from the conference program. Please schedule your work appropriately. For the best chance of having your submission reviewed by the English Review Service, please make sure it is submitted and marked "complete" in the submission system at least 14 days before your program's submission deadline.

 

What does a one-page abstract submission look like? What does a poster look like?

Here are two examples of good posters and abstracts:

 

Example 1

siggraphposter1

 

Example 2

siggraphposter2

 

Poster authors should prepare their documents according to the ACM SIGGRAPH formatting instructions. Remember: the jury will review the abstract, but the poster is what you will display at the conference.

Poster Creation & Presentation

 

What are the maximum dimensions of poster prints?

Individual posters will be printed in A0 size (horizontal or vertical). The size should be 1188mmx840mm, bleed of 3mm aside to the above. Please provide a final high-resolution PDF file suitable for print with minimum 300dpi. You will receive detailed instructions on how to prepare your final print-ready file together with your acceptance notification.

 

Where in the convention center will my poster be located?

You will receive detailed information regarding the exact location of your poster at the convention center.

 

Will tables be provided for each poster?

The available space for tables varies from convention center to convention center and from year to year. While we try to cater some tables, we cannot promise every poster will get one.

 

My poster submission has been accepted, and I would like to give a demo of my work. Is this possible?

Poster submitters are encouraged to demo their work during the Poster Sessions using their own laptop equipment, in front of their Posters. We will aim to provide tables.

 

Will I have an internet connection for my laptop?

Wireless internet access will be available throughout the convention center.

 

Will AC power be available for my laptop or other devices?

We cannot promise that AC power outlets will be available for everyone. Charge your batteries before the session.

 

Can I leave my laptop or other equipment there before or after the session?

No! The poster sessions are in unsecured open areas. Take your laptop and all your gear with you.

 

I have travel conflicts, and I cannot attend the conference. Can I still submit work to the conference?

Yes, as long as one contributor per accepted poster is registered with a Full Conference registration and the poster can be presented by a representative of the author. If it is a collaborative submission, it is important that at least one of the authors attends the conference and presents the work. We expect poster authors to be present at the poster sessions.
