Charter of the Informatics Section of Academia Europaea: The charter includes the propagation of awareness of the classical and emerging disciplines of informatics and their interfaces to other fields of science and humanities.
Target Audience: In line with the charter this symposium is "programmed" to be of interest to these groups of participants:
- Computer Scientists in General: We are in particular aiming also at researchers from Armenia, Belarus, Bulgaria, The Czech Republic, Croatia, Estonia, Georgia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia, Moldava, Montenegro, Poland, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Turkey and Ukraine. The Informatics Section shall endeavour to bring up to 40 such scholars (submit before August 20) to attend the symposium as Charles Simonyi Fellows.
- Members of other AE Sections: The first day (one topic) sessions and especially the second day (two topic) sessions ought appeal to the intellectual curiosity of members of other AE sections: Mathematics, Physics and Engineering, Linguistics, and the Biology sections.
Aims: For the first day to survey aims & objectives of the VSTTE effort. For the second day morning to highlight some esoteric new research avenues, and for the second day afternoon to highlight apparent seamless borders between computer science and mathematics.
Objectives: For the first day to ensure a Pan European VSTTE effort. For the second day morning to similarly broaden the scope of research in new areas, and for the second day afternoon to do likewise!
Implications: This is not a conventional computer/computing science/informatics symposium. Speakers are presenting overviews of recent years of their work. More details here
