Participation to associations

Dominique Bechmann is member of the board directors of the French Virtual and Augmented Reality Association (AFRV) - created in 2005 - and of the French Computer Graphics Association (AFIG).

Jean-Michel Dischler was vice-president of the EG french chapter and is now member of the promotional and professional boards of Eurographics association.

Participation to GDRs (Research Actions)

Dominique Bechmann is a member of the pilot committee of GDR IG « Informatique Graphique » (Graphics) launched in 2006 and responsible of the action « Réalité virtuelle et réalité augmentée » (Virtual and Augmented Reality) in collaboration with GDR ISIS. The whole research group is linked to this GDR (Research Action) through the workgroups « Modélisation Géométrique » (Geometric Modeling), « Visualisation et Rendu » (Visualization and Rendering) and « Animation et Simulation » (Animation and Simulation).

We are also linked to the GDR IM « Informatique Mathématiques » (Computer Science and Mathematics) via the workgroup « Modélisation Géométrique » (Geometric Modeling). We should also soon be linked to the new GDR GPL, in the new workgroup « Langages, Types et Preuves » (Languages, Types and Proofs).

Program committees, review committees and editorial boards

Jean-Michel Dischler was a member of the program committee of the international conference EUROGRAPHICS (2002-2006).

Dominique Bechmann is editor at the editorial board of the french online journal of "Informatique Graphique" (Graphics) since its creation in 2006 (co-editor from 2006 till 2008) and coordinator of the special issue AFIG 2005 of the journal "Techniques et Sciences Informatiques TSI" to appear in 2008.

Participation to the organization of colloquiums

Dominique Bechmann organized - with the help of all IGG team - the Week of Virtual Reality in 2005 in Strasbourg jointly with "les journées de l'AFIG" and the 2nd colloquium France-Asia in Virtual Reality.

Since 2006, Pascal Schreck is co-organizer together with Dominique Michelucci and Xiao-Shan Gao of a session dedicated to constraints and geometrical reasoning which is part of the conference ACM SAC (Symposium on Applied Computing). The 2008 edition of this session - called GCR08 - is described at this address : http://axis.u-strasbg.fr/gcr08 (see also [6-GMS07]).

Dominique Bechmann organized a Symposium at VRIC 2007 in « Réalité Virtuelle et Réalité Augmentée » (Virtual and Augmented Reality) in the scope of the action RV & RA of GDR IG and ISIS in 2007 at LAVAL.

Scientific vulgarization

Dominique Bechmann was coordinator - with Bernard Péroche from LIRIS - of two articles IC2 about "informatique graphique" (graphics), series "Traitement du signal et de l’image" (Signal and Image Processing) headed by Francis Castanié and Henri Maître, Hermès, 2007.
