The
2nd ACM Europe Summer School for Data Science will take place the following July (12-18/7) in the heart of Athens and invites researchers around the world to attend a series of interesting and constructive lectures by distinguished professors. The summer school is addressed to young Computer Science researchers and engineers, i.e. young faculty, postdocs, PhD candidates, young engineers from industry and in some special cases MSc students or even senior undergraduate students.
Lectures will be focused on Data Management and Analysis, Machine Learning and -more strictly on the side of computer sciences- Social Networking as well as Security and Privacy. Keynote lectures by major figures in the field will also be given at key points of the program. All courses will take place in the
Royal Olympic Hotel, which is located in the center of Athens right in the shadow of the Acropolis and next to the ruins of the imposing Temple of Zeus.
In the 1st ACM Europe Summer School sixty young computer science researchers and engineers from across Europe, young faculty, postdocs, PhD candidates and MSc students, arrived in Athens to attend an intense week of lectures, hands-on sessions and keynote talks from 9 distinguished scientists. Six subjects in Big Data and Data Science were selected to offer students the chance to develop skills and expertise, broaden their international experience and capitalize on this great knowledge opportunity.
