The core of the Summer School is a set of comprehensive presentations, covering theoretical and practical background material. Material will be presented by recognized experts, with immediate discussion and feedback. 

The current list of speakers is as follows:

• Jürgen Quittek, NEC Eurolabs: Developments in hardware for programmable switches
• Hagen Woesner, BISDN: OF-DPA

plus presentations by the organizers (Karl, Kellerer, Zitterbart).

Participants' research 

Every participant will have the opportunity to present her or his incipient or on-going research project in a focused presentation. The goal is to provide early feedback to PhD projects that are still in an early phase. 

Since this is a voluntary part of the program, we ask you to inform us during registration whether you are interested to give such a presentation. 

(The originally intended hackathon had to be cancelled due to lack of interest.)

We shall leverage the unique opportunity offered by running the summer school in a sailing school for a one-day team building event. No specific equipment is required.
