ADFOCS is also part of the activities of the International Max-Planck Research School and of the EU Project DELIS. The scope of ADFOCS is international and it is addressed to young researchers at the PhD student or postdoc level. The goal of ADFOCS is to have hot topics from fundamental areas of computer science presented by top researchers in the field, bringing participants to the frontiers of current resarch.
