The submission tool can be found here<https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/ICAT-EGVE_2018>. The Call For Papers in PDF format is available here<http://www.cyprusconferences.org/icat-egve2018/CfP_ICAT-EGVE2018.pdf>.

Note: Submissions should be original, unpublished work, and should not be in submission to other venues concurrently. Any dual submissions will be rejected outright without review.

For each accepted paper a registration at the conference is needed and at least one of the authors of each accepted paper is required to present their paper at the conference for the paper to be included in the proceedings.
International Conference on Artificial Reality and Telexistence (ICAT) and Eurographics Symposium on Virtual Environments (EGVE) are two of the oldest international conferences in the world on Artificial Reality and Virtual Environments, and provide a unique opportunity for researchers, developers, and users to share their experience and knowledge of Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, Mixed Reality and 3D User Interfaces. ICAT-EGVE 2018 is a great opportunity to renew old friendships, make new ones, and experience all that Cyprus has to offer.

Limassol, a city counting centuries of history, is located between two of the most renowned ancient kingdoms of the island, Amathus at the east and Kourion at the west. “Lemessos” as it is called by locals, is one of the fastest growing modern metropolises in Europe, with the most distinct project being the Limassol Marina. The beautiful coastline now covers a 15 kilometers distance, lined with hotels and beach bars and cafes, interspersed with eucalyptus groves and linked by a promenade popular with walkers and joggers. For more information see here<http://icat-egve2018.rise.org.cy/about-limassol/>. ICAT-EGVE 2018 is organized by the newly established RISE-Research Center on Interactive media, Smart systems and Emerging technologies which aims to become a Center of Excellence and a hub across the three continents bordering Cyprus, facilitating thus the local scientific, technological, and economic growth of the region. More information about the center can be found here<http://www.rise.org.cy/>.
