Overview
The departments of computer science at EPF Lausanne and ETH Zurich are taking the initiative of a first meeting of heads of departments in Europe.
Until now there hadn't been any effort, comparable to the Computing Research Association in the US with its annual "Snowbird" conference, to provide a forum where they could discuss these matters and coordinate their efforts. We feel it's time to start.
You can read more about the Summit here.
The first Summit took place at ETH Zurich on 20-21 October 2005, attended by heads CS departments throughout Europe (including Russia, Ukraine and representatives from Turkey, Israel, South Africa and the US).
We gratefully acknowledge the support of the SCOPES program from the Swiss National Science Foundation, allowing funding the participation of some representatives of Eastern European countries.
Please tell us of your interest by filling in the registration form.
