Two workshops in Kazan and one in Moscow
are organized in conjunction with CSR-2010.
Pre-conference Workshop on Program Semantics, Specification and Verification:
Theory and Applications (PSSV 2010) in Kazan will be held on June 14-15.

Post-conference Workshop on High Productivity Computations (HPC 2010) in Kazan
will be held on June 21-22. It is intended to organize the discussions
about high productivity computing means and models, including but not
limited to high performance and quantum information processing.
