SweConsNet Workshop 2011, announcement

The 10th Workshop of the Network of Sweden-based researchers and practitioners of Constraint programming (SweConsNet) will be held May 30th, 2011 - Örebro University (Sweden).

Here is the current info from the SweConsNet Workshop 2011 page. Please note that the speaker list is preliminary and will change.

Originally I had planned to talk about CP and Answer Set Programming but due to certain circumstances I will not be able to do that. So I'll just be in the audience this time.

About the Workshop

The Network for Sweden-based researchers and practitioners of Constraint technology (SweConsNet) invites all researchers and practitioners to participate in the yearly SweConsNet Workshop. The purpose of the workshop is to learn about ongoing research in Constraint Programming, existing projects and products, and further development of the network. SweConsNet Workshop 2011 is the 10th edition of this annual event.

The workshop is open to everybody interested in the theory and practice of constraint programming, whether based in Sweden or elsewhere. The scope of the workshop spans all areas of Constraint Programming, and is open to presentations and discussions addressing topics related to both theory and application.

Participation and registration

We highly encourage interested individuals to submit a proposal for a presentation of ongoing work and/or recent results, or of a discussion topic. There are no paper submissions, reviews, or proceedings, hence recent conference/journal papers may also be presented. To register, please send a brief statement of intent, and desirably the title and abstract of your talk, to Federico Pecora. A preliminary list of speakers is provided below, and several time slots remain available.

In order to facilitate organization, please notify us of your intention to participate as soon as possible, and at the latest before May 16th. The workshop does not have a registration fee.
