Timing
The workshop will start with a welcome reception on Sunday, June 21st, 2015. The scientific program will start on Monday morning and last until Wednesday afternoon. Departure is planned for Wednesday, June 24th, 2015 around 15.00.
Presentations
Invited talks of 30 minutes plus 15 minutes of discussion ensure the possibility of giving a comprehensive overview of the latest methods and results in each research area. Contributed participants will have 20 minute talks followed by 10 minutes of discussion. Additionally, we will have a flash poster session on Tuesday allowing the participants to present their research orally for 5 minutes followed by detailed discussions in a poster session.
