A small number of papers accepted for presentation at the annual ACM SIGGRAPH conference have been published in abstract form in the annual conference proceedings, and published in full in some other print publication. This page provides a list of those papers and their publication history. Thanks to Dr. Donald P. Greenberg for the suggestion.

ACM SIGGRAPH 74 Conference Proceedings

The proceedings of the first ACM SIGGRAPH conference consisted of the abstracts of all of the accepted papers. The papers were printed in the first volume of the journal Computers & Graphics.

ACM SIGGRAPH 77

An Interactive Computer Graphics Approach to Surface Representation

An abstract of this paper, authored by Wu, Abel and Greenberg, was published in the ACM SIGGRAPH 77 Conference Proceedings, and a preliminary version was published in the supplement to the ACM SIGGRAPH 77 Conference Proceedings. The complete version of this paper was published in Communications of the ACM 20(10), October 1977.

Optimal Surface Reconstruction from Planar Contours

An abstract of this paper, authored by Fuchs, Kedem and Uselton, was published in the ACM SIGGRAPH 77 Conference Proceedings, and a preliminary version was published in the supplement to the ACM SIGGRAPH 77 Conference Proceedings. The complete version of this paper was published in Communications of the ACM 20(10), October 1977.

ACM SIGGRAPH 78

Scan Line Methods for Displaying Parametrically Defined Surfaces

This paper is a combination of three papers: two papers presented at ACM SIGGRAPH 78 (and published, in preliminary form, in the supplement to the ACM SIGGRAPH 78 Conference Proceedings): A Scanline Algorithm for Computer Display of Curved Surfaces by Turner Whitted, and A Scan Line Algorithm for Displaying Parametrically Defined Surfaces by James F. Blinn, and A Scan Line Algorithm for the Display of Parametrically Defined Surfaces by Jeffrey M. Lane and Loren C. Carpenter. The complete version of this paper was published in Communications of the ACM, 23(1), January 1980.
