Saarbruecken, Germany. It is organized as part of the activities of the
MPII, in particular the International Max Planck Research School (IMPRS),
MPII's graduate program. The purpose of this summer school is to introduce
young researchers to topics which are the focus of current research in
theoretical computer science. We bring together leading researchers in the
field and international participants at the graduate level and above. This
year's focus is on:

*** Market Design and Computational Fair Division ***
