ESAW'02: Workshop Schedule

Invited Speaker: Marco Dorigo

The ESAW'02 Workshop will be located in Room 003 of the Aulario I building (see the very bottom of the Location Information page), on the campus of the Universidad Rey Juan Carlos.

Every presentation slot consists of 20 minutes for the talk and 5 minutes for questions closely related to the particular presentation (e.g. to clarify understanding). Any ideas for discussion of a wider/broader kind should be taken down and brought up in that session's wrap-up slot.

Sessions were assembled so as to include a broader theoretical contribution, presentations on specific technical and engineering issues, and reports on practical experience with applications. This structure shall facilitate and encourage discussions across individual individual domains in the session wrap-ups. The various areas will be revisited in the different sessions, offering the opportunity to reconsider pertinent topics and extend related discussions.
