+title: Call for Workshop of Theses and Dissertations(WTD)
+---
+
+The Workshop of Theses and Dissertations (WTD) aims to  motivate  discussions  about the graduate-level research on  topics covered by SIBGRAPI among graduate students, recently graduated students, and senior researchers.
+Researchers who have recently concluded their graduate studies are cordially invited to submit a paper to the SIBGRAPI WTD. Graduate works in progress are welcome for submission to the Workshop of Works in Progress (WIP).
+Accepted works will be presented in poster sessions and published in the SIBGRAPI electronic proceedings (with ISSN), provided that at least one of the authors is registered to the event.
+
+###Important Dates:
+
+- Paper submission deadline: **May 9th, 2014**
+- Notification of acceptance: June 23th, 2014
+- Camera ready: July 14th, 2014
+
+###Who can submit?
+
+Students who defended their M.Sc or Ph.D. after 01/01/2013 and did not present their final work at previous editions of the SIBGRAPI WTD.
+
+###Selection criteria
+
+The WTD program committee will evaluate the submitted works with respect to the following criteria: originality, technical quality, contribution to the research area, and clarity of presentation.
+
+###Best work awards
+
+A number of awards for the best Ph.D. and M.Sc. works will be given based on the selected work grades and on the opinion of a small committee that will evaluate the poster presentations during the event. In order to participate of the contest for the best work awards, the paper must be written in English.
+
+###Instruction to the authors
+
+Submissions related to M.Sc. work may be written in Portuguese or English, using the IEEE Latex file format. However, we strongly recommend paper submission in English. Submissions related to Ph.D. work must be written in English using the IEEE Latex file format (the template will be available soon). The text should follow the SIBGRAPI formatting guidelines, but with the following adjustments:
+- The names of the authors should not be omitted, disregarding the requirement of anonymity for the articles. In particular, students must appear as the first author and the advisor as the last author, with eventual co-advisors and other collaborators in the middle.
+- Texts in Portuguese (only M.Sc.work) should include, besides the abstract in Portuguese, also an abstract in English.
+- The articles are limited to 6 – double-column pages.
+- The text should indicate, by a footnote on the first page, whether the work relates to a M.Sc. dissertation or a Ph.D. thesis.
+- Awards, patents, publications or possible distinctions achieved as a result of the M.Sc. dissertation or the Ph.D. thesis should be listed in the last section of the paper.
+- The papers should be submitted through the [CMT system](https://cmt2.research.microsoft.com/WTD20142014/Default.aspx).
+
+For further questions, please, contact the WTD chairs:
+

+title: Call for Tutorial Proposals
+---
+
+SIBGRAPI 2014 welcomes submissions of tutorials in all areas related to Computer Graphics (CG), Computer Vision (CV), Image Processing (IP), and Pattern Recognition (PR). 
+
+All tutorials will take place in the first day of the conference (August 27th). A tutorial can take the whole day (6 hours long) or just half day (3 hours long), and can be elementary, intermediate, or advanced: 
+
+- **Elementary tutorials** should complement the basic undergraduate curriculum in Computer Science, Engineering, and related areas, to introduce students into the selected topics. Instructors should not assume that the audience has basic knowledge in these areas. 
+
+- **Intermediate tutorials** are targeted to students, professionals, and researchers who wish to learn specific techniques in CG, CV, IP, and PR. Instructors may assume that the attendees are familiar with basic notions of mathematics and programming related to the subject.
+
+- **Advanced tutorials** should cover state-of-the-art research, recent developments, emerging topics, and novel applications in CG, CV, IP, and PR.
+
+###Important Dates:
+
+- Submission deadline: **March 25th, 2014**
+- Notification of acceptance: January 15th, 2014
+- Camera-ready survey paper: August 10th
+- Handouts: August 20th
+
+###Tutorial Selection
+
+All proposals will be reviewed by at least two experts in the topic and will be judged by: 
+
+-	Relevance for the conference; 
+-	Expected size of the audience; 
+-	Potential to attract participants to the conference;
+-	Originality;
+-	Qualification of the instructor(s) in the topic of the tutorial;
+
+###Author's Instructions 
+
+Tutorial proposals should be submitted through JEMS. The JEMS entry for tutorials will be available soon. Please, send your proposal up to 8 pages in PDF format using the SIBGRAPI IEEE LaTeX template available at the papers submission instructions page, disregarding recommendations for anonymity. The proposals should be written in Portuguese (elementary tutorials only) or English, and contain the following information:
+
+-	Title
+-	Level (elementary, intermediate or advanced)
+-	How many hours will be required (3h or 6h);
+-	Abstract;
+-	Motivation;
+-	Target audience;
+-	Interest for the CV, IP, CG and PR community;
+-	List of the topics to be presented, including:
+-	Estimated duration, 
+-	Subtopics, 
+-	Relevant literature;
+-	Presentation requirements: equipment and/or software;
+-	Short biography of the instructors, including relevant experience in the topic of the tutorial;
+-	Plan for presentation (include information on who will present the tutorial if more than one author).
+
+Regarding the support for tutorials presenters, the organization intends to cover part of the hotel expenses, as well as the registration fee. 
+
+###Presentation
+
+Each tutorial must be presented by at least one of the authors (please include this information in the submission). Handouts must be prepared to be ready for distribution to the tutorials' participants. Instructions for the creation of the handouts will be given to the authors of the accepted tutorials at a later date.
+
+###Publication of selected tutorial survey paper
+
+Authors of the selected tutorials will be invited to prepare a survey paper, in the tutorial's topic, for the electronic version of the conference proceedings. We expect a survey paper in the form of a manuscript with an introduction, a structured presentation of the topic, and conclusions indicating trends, applications, and directions for future work. This paper will be peer reviewed for publication in a special issue of the journal RITA – Revista de Informática Teórica e Aplicada (see www.seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/rita/).  
+
+For tutorials of previous years published by IEEE CPS please check: [2009](http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/mostRecentIssue.jsp?punumber=5394477), [2010](http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/mostRecentIssue.jsp?punumber=5756311),[2011](http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/mostRecentIssue.jsp?reload=true&punumber=6075047),[2012](http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/mostRecentIssue.jsp?punumber=6380642).
