SPM 2017 - 2017 Symposium on Solid and Physical Modeling

The Symposium on Solid and Physical Modeling (SPM-2017) will be co-located with Shape Modeling International (SMI-2017) Symposium as part of the International Convention on Shape, Solid, Structure, & Physical Modeling (S3PM-2017) in Berkeley, California.
SPM seeks high quality, original research contributions that strive to advance all aspects of geometric and physical modeling, and their application in design, analysis and manufacturing, as well as in biomedical, geophysical, digital entertainment, and other areas. The symposium is organized with the support of the Solid Modeling Association (SMA), which will award the 2017 Pierre Bézier Prize for contributions to solid, shape, and physical modeling during the conference.
Accepted full-length papers will be published in a special issue of the Journal of Computer-Aided Design (Elsevier) after a rigorous double-blind review process.
