The beautiful city of Wroclaw in Poland hosted this year the 10th edition of the European Computer Science Summit. ECSS is annually organized by Informatics Europe and a member institution; this year the co-organizing partner was the Institute of Computer Science, University of Wroclaw. Deans, department heads, research directors and senior academics from all over Europe joined to discuss highly relevant topics, share experiences and learn from distinguished colleagues in the field.
On October 13th academic leaders gathered for the traditional Workshop for Deans, Department Chairs and Research Directors where participants had as usual the opportunity to share their experiences, learn from colleagues in similar strategic roles, exchange best practices and build relationships among different European Informatics research and education institutions.
The main Summit on October 14th and 15th included the exciting keynote speeches delivered by Danny Dolev, Marta Kwiatkowska, Andreas Zeller, Eugene Spafford, Bart Preneel, Bertrand Meyer, Pierre Dillenbourg, Andre Richier and Jaan Tallinn. The audience had the opportunity to hear from these prominent speakers about issues of relevance not only to the Informatics community but also to society in general. Talks selected from submitted contributions, discussion panel, and the Informatics Europe Best Practices in Education Award Ceremony and General Assembly rounded the program.
In the memorable visit and dinner at the Museum of the University of Wroclaw participants were able to learn a bit more about the history of the institution and taste Polish culinary delights inside the breathtaking Oratorium Marianum with its exquisite frescoes and baroque architecture.
Overall the conference provided the participants with the unique opportunity to engage with their peers in extremely interesting discussions on topics of great relevance for the future development of the field. As remarked by many participants over the years, this unique forum provided yearly by Informatics Europe is of great importance to strength the European Informatics community and contribute to the future development of the research and education in the field.
