tracks as well as invited presentations. We do offer all invited
speakers, papers, projects and our appreciated sponsors the possibility
to go into depth or debate with the audience on the after conference on

will organize specific in depth events for (their) developers and coding
marathons. We expect to see that more marvelous contributions and
results will be created on the spot.
