Workshop activities and format

Three of of the accepted papers will be selected for presentations.

For the upcoming group discussions we will use the open space format which is governed by the "law of 2 feet". Either the foot of engagement gets fed or the foot of interest gets fed. If neither gets fed you move to another group. This ensures high energy and valuable discussions. The input and topics for these discussions will be the presented lightning talks, the submitted papers and the opinions and ideas of the participants.

Groups
