Plenary Lectures
The scientific programme will be
particularly highlighted by Plenary Lectures presented by
renowned personalities from both industry and academia. The
Plenary Lectures will take place at a lecture building of
the University of Lausanne, the Collège Propédeutique
(CP at UNIL), adjacent to EPFL, in about 10 minutes walking
distance from the Congress Centre. Those who arrive there
by Metro from downtown Lausanne should get off one stop before
EPFL at "UNIL Sorge". After a coffee break, the
lecture programme will be continued at EPFL.
