Home < 2008 June Workshop Germany- Still tentative, pending approval
- When: June 15-17
- Where: Germany, IHK Akademie Westerham
- Application deadline (extended): May 1st, 2008.
Introduction
This is a hands-on workshop about the NA-MIC kit. The workshop is intended for participants from within Germany and it is expected to be sponsored by the DFG. The target audience for this workshop are scientists with an engineering background who are considering using the NA-MIC kit as their software platform for research. The NA-MIC kit consists of free open source software without restrictions on use and without a give-back requirement. The NA-MIC kit is well-suited for both academic and commercial activities.
The participants will receive an overview of the software libraries, the end-user applications, and documentation that comprise the NA-MIC kit. The curriculum is hands-on which means that participants are required to attend the workshop with a suitable laptop, preloaded with the software and sample data as specified below. Attendance is limited in order to ensure quality interactions between the faculty and participants.
Venue and Logistics
The workshop will take place at the IHK Akademie Westerham on June the 16th and 17th, 2008 which is located south-east of Munich. Faculty and participants are expected to arrive at the venue on Sunday the 15th to allow the workshop to begin on time on Monday morning.
All participants will receive a letter of invitation from the DFG. In addition to the workshop program the letter will contain a form that needs to be filled out and sent back to the DFG in order to get reimbursed for travel and accommodation costs.
Prerequisites
- This workshop is a hands-on workshop!
- A working knowledge of C++ is a prerequisite for benefiting from the full curriculum.
- You will be expected bring a computer with you with a minimum of 1 GB of RAM and a dedicated graphic accelerator with 128 MB of on-board graphic memory. You will need to compile the software before coming to the meeting. The NA-MIC kit is tested for multiple platforms including Linux, Windows XP and Mac OSX. Either of those platforms are acceptable and welcome for the work during the workshop.
Application
Due to the fact that the workshop is mainly supported by the DFG, only applications from within Germany can be considered. German citizenship is not required. Multiple applications from single institutes are possible but the primary intention is to achieve a wide-spread distribution over many institutes. Finally each person attending, will have to pay 120€ for participating. This fee will be used for partially covering the costs for food.
The applications should include:
- Name
- Address (to which the invitation will be sent)
- Field of research/work
- Previous experience with the NA-MIC kit
Schedule
- March - Web site, Call for application
- April - announcement in Nassir's talk
- May 5 - DFG deadline for list of participants
- Workshop: (arrival on the 15th) 16 and 17

Travel Information
In regard to the ticket you need for local travel: you have two options depending on the size of the traveling group. You can either go for a partner day ticket (18 €, all zones/Gesamtnetz) or a single day ticket (10 €, all zones/Gesamtnetz).
Coming from the Munich Airport
When going to the subway station at the airport you can choose between any of the two subways, either S1 (west route) or S8 (east route) though the S8 is probably beneficial in terms of journey time (approx. 35 minutes).
With both trains you should travel to the station Ostbahnhof.
At Ostbahnhof you need to change to the S6 (direction Giesing) and leave the train at the terminal stop Kreuzstraße.
Coming from the Central Station
At central station you can directly enter the S6 (direction Karlsplatz/Stachus or Marienplatz) and leave the train at the terminal stop Kreuzstraße. The traveling time is around 50 minutes.
The last meters
At Kreuzstraße you need to change into a regional express (e.g. RB30239, RB30245, RB30247, direction Bad Aibling) which you will leave at the fist stop in Westerham. This final train trip requires an extra ticket which costs around 2€.
