Day 3 - Hackathon
On the third day of the Pangalactic BOINC Workshop 2020 we will have three rooms available to be used for separate work sessions: the lecture hall plus two slightly smaller seminar rooms (all equipped wit the full presentation equipment and audio facilities). During the first two workshop days, we will collect ideas for suitable topics to be worked on during the hackathon sessions on day three. Experience from previous BOINC workshops shows that the presentation sessions and the discussions during the coffee breaks and food sessions usually lead to spark fruitful ideas.
