Introduction
We are pleased to announce High-Performance Graphics 2023. High-Performance Graphics is the leading international forum for performance-oriented graphics and imaging systems research including innovative algorithms, efficient implementations, languages, compilers, parallelism, and hardware architectures for high-performance graphics. 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.

Conference Info
High-Performance Graphics is co-sponsored by ACM SIGGRAPH and Eurographics. The program features three days of paper and industry presentations.

The conference will be in-person this year (with an online component) and will take place from June 26-28, 2023 in Delft, Netherlands — co-sited with Eurographics Symposium on Rendering Techniques.

Papers Track
We invite original and innovative performance-oriented contributions to the design of algorithms and hardware architectures, for all areas of graphics in the broadest sense, including rendering, virtual and augmented reality, ray tracing, physics, and animation. We also invite contributions to the emerging areas in visual computing such as high-performance computer vision, and machine learning as well as topics on compiler and language technology. Topics include (but are not limited to):

Hardware and systems for high-performance graphics
Graphics hardware simulation, optimization, and performance measurement
Shading architectures
Novel fixed-function hardware design
Hardware design for mobile, embedded, integrated devices
Streaming, caching, and out-of-core techniques
Cloud-accelerated graphics systems
Green computing and rendering on low-power devices
Real-time and interactive ray tracing hardware or software
Novel Acceleration data structures
Novel BVH construction, traversal and optimization techniques
Ray traversal, sorting, batching and intersection techniques
Scheduling and shading for ray tracing
Hybrid rendering with rasterization and ray tracing
Hardware-acceleration for ray tracing
Novel use cases of ray tracing hardware (e.g., audio and physics)
Rendering algorithms

Paper Length and Format
Published proceedings will be archived in the ACM and Eurographics Digital Libraries. Furthermore, a curated selection of accepted papers will be featured in a special issue of the Eurographics Computer Graphics Forum (CGF) journal. CGF papers will be selected based on reviewer recommendations, the outcome of a second review cycle, and HPG Committee deliberation.

There is no fixed maximum length for a paper. However, the magnitude of the contribution must be proportional to the length of the paper. Papers longer than ten typeset pages in the final format must make a very significant contribution to be accepted. Writing plays an important role in the assessment. Omitting important details or tampering with formatting rules may cause a paper to be graded lower than a longer paper that is clearly written, without being repetitive or verbose. Papers of four or fewer pages are considered under the short paper track.

Submission Guidelines
Submissions should use SRM, which includes format information for Eurographics. These format requirements match that of Computer Graphics Forum, so curated papers should not need modification before publication.

We try to be as permissive as possible while still taking all reasonable steps to preserve anonymity during the review process. Please do not make public statements on the submission status of your paper until acceptance has been confirmed. Before your paper is accepted:

You may upload a version of your submission, for example as a technical report or to arXiv (or similar services), but please do not mention HPG.
You may give presentations about your work, without saying it is submitted to HPG.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us via papers@highperformancegraphics.org.

Hot 3D Systems Track
We invite vendors in the graphics industry to submit presentations of their latest and greatest graphics chips, high-performance software, and system designs. Presentations should be 20 minutes long, with a focus on technical aspects of real products (marketing-oriented talks will not be accepted). Hot 3D presentations are not considered archival publications for the purposes of future submission to peer-reviewed venues.

For further information please contact: hot3d@highperformancegraphics.org.

Posters
We also invite the submission of posters describing ongoing or late-breaking work. Please note that posters are not considered archival publications and thus should not prevent submitting the work therein to other publication venues.

Poster submissions should be sent directly to the following email address: posters@highperformancegraphics.org.
