What is covered by the registration costs?
Accommodation for the whole week in shared rooms, breakfast and
lunch as well as an excursion on Wednesday. Students will only have
to pay for the cost of travel to Bertinoro and for their dinners in
the many cosy restaurants in the town.
When does the school start and end?
We start Sun May 19th at 13:30 and end on Fri 24th at
12:00. Students should have arrived in Bertinoro before 13:00 on
Sunday at the latest and are expected to stay the whole week.
Can I get support to attend the Summer School?
Yes! We canl pay you to attend the summer school. We have
funding from the following sources: ACM's SIGPLAN and the Office of Naval Reseaerch (ONR). These
sources come with their own restrictions: the ONR are
limited to students residing in the USA. SIGPLAN aims to support
diversity.
Do apply! Regardless of these limitations we
will try to support you. Please be modest in your requests and try
to save money wherever possible. If funded, check with the
organizers before booking.
Who can attend?
The main target audience are students interested in programming
languages. We are particularly interested in encouraging minorities and
also undergraduates. Anyone else is welcome space permitting.
Note: we won't accept previous attendees of PLISS, as we want
to maximise the number of people who can enjoy the PLISS experience.
How to apply?
Are there prerequisites?
An undergraduate programming language class and/or compiler class is all you need.
