Registration on Monday morning

We meet for the first time on Monday morning on the ground floor of the MPI. The registration desk there will be open between 8:00 and 8:45 am. All lectures take place in room HS001 ('Hoersaal 1') of the computer-science building right next to the MPI, where we meet at 8:45 for a short welcome before the first lecture.

Accompanying literature available

For accompanying literature have a look at the abstracts of the lectures.

School dinner and excursion

The school dinner on Tuesday will take place at a restaurant with a sports field next to it. Besides eating and drinking and sitting together we plan to play some volleyball, frisbee, badminton etc. If you are interested in these sporting activities don't forget to wear adequate clothes.

For the excursion on Wednesday we plan a trip to the old castle in Kirkel where we will first do some guided hiking in the forest nearby and afterwards have a crossbow contest at the castle together with a knight-feast. For the hiking please wear sturdy shoes.

For those of you who are not familiar with German temperatures. We are supposed to have summer these days, and though it does not look like that right now, the weather forecast predicts sunshine and temperatures of up to 30° celsius (86° farenheit) for the ADFOCS week.
