Seminars 2012
In SACHI we are having around 20 seminars in 2012 as part of our new informal seminar series here in St Andrews.
This is an open and friendly forum for sharing ideas. We welcome anyone in Computer Science, St Andrews or SICSA to attend. Some seminars are reflecting on areas we are already exploring but some will be from people external to SACHI to help ferment new ideas, new avenues of research, or simply to help us reflect on our own research here. Please note, if you are presenting or attending for the first time these are brown bag seminars and are typically held on Tuesdays from 1pm – 2pm (unless otherwise noted) in the Jack Cole building in 1.33a (see directions here). Our seminar coordinator is Mr Jakub Dostal (who maintains these pages and seminar annoucements), if you have any questions please contact him.
