Invitation

Dear Colleagues,

we, the experiment control system group @ GSI, would like to invite you to a workshop dedicated to the CS framework. Please feel free to forward this information to other colleagues.

The main idea behind this workshop is to bring the users and developers of CS together to discuss about the present status and future developments.

This workshop will take place at GSI in "DVEE Besprechungsraum", SB2 2.239B, on
February 18, 2010, Thursday, 13:00 to 18:00 (evening: dinner)
February 19, 2010, Friday, 09:00 to 12:00.

We could run a Adobe Connect Web-Meeting in parallel, so that people from anywhere could join the workshop remotely. If you are interested to join via Web-Meeting, please tell HolgerBrand by February 12, 2010. We need some time to prepare. Especially we would need all talks in advance to upload them to the Webmeeting server.

• Join the Online-Meeting
• Informationen on Adobe Connect Meeting: http://webconf.vc.dfn.de/common/help/en/support/startmain.htm
• The Online-Meeting will be open half an hour before the start of the program.
• Please register yourself for remote participation by sending an e-mail to HolgerBrand by February 12, 2010

It would be nice if you could provide us with some suggestions about the topics you would like to be informed about and and/or the topics you would like to discuss. Please let us know, if you intend to come to the workshop or not.

Preliminary Agenda

Maybe it is a good idea to contribute to the list of feature requests or bug reports to enable us to derive an agenda.

This is a workshop: All attendees are cordially invited to contribute by presenting something.
In case we have too little contributions, Holger is threatening us with an in-depth course about mobile agents based on the HGF base class library using LabVIEW Object Oriented Programming (LVOOP) :-).

Authors are responsible for the contents of their own contributions.
