ECACOMSIG - the European Crystallographic Association's Computing Special Interest Group

Dates: The European Crystallographic Computing Forum will be held in Melk (Lower Austria) from the 14th to 17th of August 2019, immediately preceding the European Crystallographic Meeting ECM32.

The European Crystallographic Computing Forum is a participant driven event. We encourage informal tutorials between participants. Participants can bring small software projects and work on them together with other participants in teams, being helped by the invited tutors and each other.

Mornings will be filled with plenary discussions and lectures on topics of general interest to computing in all disciplines of crystallography, afternoons and evenings will be run code-camp style, intersparsed with tutorials as needed.

Beginning time: Beginning time of the forum is on 14-Aug at 18:00h.

Location: The Forum will be held in Melk (Lower Austria), which is 85 km from Vienna. There are regular train connections from Vienna to Melk. At the end of the Forum we will organize a bus travel to the ECM congress in Vienna.
