Program


About the format

The workshop format is designed to encourage interactions and collaborations, with a significant fraction of the time dedicated to unconference sessions, which are dynamic participant-driven sessions covering discussions, informal presentations, collaborative work sessions, and tutorials (for instance on how to use specific visualization tools), and the remainder of the time is dedicated to formal talks as well as plenary discussion sessions. Unconference sessions are proposed for and voted on by participants at the meeting itself, ensuring a dynamic program.
