The SIGGRAPH Asia Symposium on Mobile Graphics and Interactive Applications

The increased power, portability, and ubiquitous connectivity of mobile devices are causing a fundamental shift in how we interact with digital content. The graphics and interactivity that once was only possible with desktop computers is now in the palm of the hand, and can be experienced almost anywhere. Increasingly sophisticated development environments, easy market access through application stores, and widespread device availability are creating new opportunities for a wide range of developers to participate in a global market growing to more than $35 billion annually. The Symposium on Mobile Graphics and Interactive Applications (MGIA) at SIGGRAPH Asia 2016 in Macao, China is a venue for both industry and academia to explore the opportunities and challenges of mobile applications relevant to the global graphics community. The program aims to cover the development, technology, and marketing of mobile graphics and interactive applications. It will especially highlight novel uses of graphics and interactivity on mobile devices. Attendees can expect to be exposed to the latest in mobile graphics and interactive applications through expert keynote talks, paper presentations, panel discussions, industry case studies, and hands-on demonstrations.
