he ACSD is an annual event that brings together computer scientists from all over Austria. The day serves as networking opportunity, a day to exchange research ideas and introduces new and established talents. ACSD 2025 will take place all day on Friday 6 June in the Aula and we are particularly pleased to announce Bruno Buchberger, an ‘Innsbrucker’ with an international reputation, as keynote speaker.

The 18th HLPP symposium will be held as a two-day event, hosted by the Computer Science Department of the University of Innsbruck in Austria. It focuses on high-level parallel programming of multi-/many-core platforms, accelerator architectures, heterogeneous compute clusters, and highly parallel or distributed infrastructures.

GraphSys-2025 will be a full-day (in-person only) workshop, running a single track (i..e, no parallel sessions) in Dresden, Germany. Radu Prodan is the General Chair among other organisations.

Pascal Knierim is a co-organizer of the tutorials and workshops at the ACM International Conference on Mobile Human-Computer Interaction (MobileHCI) which will take place in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt.

The "Advancing Software Resilience in the Age of LLM - Testing, Quality Assurance, and Metrics for Robust Engineering Minitrack" which is co-organized by Philipp Zech is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of research and practice in software testing, QA, and metrics, particularly in the context of resilience engineering. By fostering collaboration and innovation, the minitrack aims to address the pressing challenges of ensuring software systems can withstand, adapt to, and recover from disruptions in a wide range of operational environments. We encourage submissions that span theoretical advances, methodological developments, empirical studies, and industrial case studies, highlighting the multifaceted aspects of resilience-focused engineering.

RoboCupJunior is an internationally organized educational initiative. The aim is to introduce young people to robots in a playful way, to awaken their interest in science and technology, and to enable exciting knowledge acquisition in the classroom. The hands-on component is important in RoboCupJunior. Therefore, the participants build and program small robots for special tasks and then show them in presentations and competitions.
