Programme & Speakers

Speakers

As in the previous editions, we would like to have a proper "workshop", with only a few invited talks, some open problem sessions, and some time for informal discussions.

The main speakers will be Jiří Adámek, Sandra Mantovani and Tim Van der Linden. They will give a 2-hour talk. Besides the three main speakers, there will be 1-hour talks by: Alessandro Ardizzoni, Carmelo Finocchiaro, Dirk Hofmann, Pierre-Alain Jacqmin, Pino Rosolini, Florence Sterck. Finally, Walter Tholen kindly accepted to close the workshop with the conclusive talk.
