Dear RT News subscriber,
Most of the ray-tracing talks at SIGGRAPH and HPG are pretty clear.
Here I wanted to pass on the less-publicized events. The Birds of a
Feather, in particular, is highly recommended if you want to see the
latest systems and meet researchers. Please let me know of any other
events worth passing on to all.

GPU Ray Tracing Birds of a Feather at Siggraph 2011 in Vancouver.
Wednesday, August 10, 2:00 to 3:30 in Waterfront Ballroom B at the
Fairmont Waterfront.
Join the third annual GPU Ray Tracing Birds of a Feather session. Show
off your demos. Share your use cases, ideas, news, and gripes. High-
performance CPU ray tracing is welcome, too.
Bring a machine to show a demo on. A display or projector will be
provided.

NVIDIA has two ray-tracing tech talks:
Monday, August 8
Location: West Building, Room 220
9:00-10:00 Advanced Rendering Solutions
Speaker: Phil Miller, Director of Software Product Management,
Professional Solutions Group, NVIDIA
The full range of advanced rendering solutions and frameworks from
NVIDIA will be jointly explained in this insightful product and
technology discussion and demonstration. Come learn about the latest
possibilities for incorporating advanced rendering – from leveraging
mental ray, adding iray, creating with OptiX, combining multiple
solutions, or building custom pipelines.
4:30- 5:30 GPU Ray Tracing
Speaker: Phil Miller, Director of Software Product Management,
Professional Solutions Group, NVIDIA
Learn the latest approaches in leveraging GPUs for the fastest
possible ray tracing results from experts developing and leveraging
the NVIDIA OptiX ray tracing engine, the team behind NVIDIA iray, and
those making custom renderers. Multiple rendering techniques, GPU
programming languages, and optimal hardware configurations will be
covered in this cutting-edge discussion.
