Design

The following themes were selected for the current edition:

  • Modern programming models for parallelism and concurrency
  • Applications of cluster analysis in computer science
  • Foundations and applications of incremental algorithms

The hidden key subject is parallelism and concurrency.

The other topics feed into the discussion as algorithmic domains that challenge parallelism.

Overall, the topics were selected on the grounds of discussion and interests of all participants incl. the prof.

See "How to ...?" for a general guide.
