This site presents a list of papers published at Eurographics because
it's Eurographics website.
I didn't reply the OP since he didn't which paper in the list he had
difficulty with, and in what consists the difficulty.

Unfortunately, once the research is published, the copyright belongs to
the publisher. Hence, here, the copyright belong to this website
(Eurographics).
However, they often tolerate violation of the copyright (even
officially)... so you'll also find such listings on other websites. For
example, there is Kesen Huang's website listing "all" the published
papers in computer graphics. Also, for example, they often allow the
authors to have their paper on the authors own websites although the
authors don't own the copyright (I always put my papers on my website,
and I would find it scandalous if the publisher asked me to remove it,
since the research was done with public money).
And yes, this is kind of screwed up.
