IWOCA OPEN PROBLEMS SESSION
=============================
Since its earliest gatherings, IWOCA has had collaborative problem solving
as an essential part of its meetings. This takes place alongside the formal
program of invited and contributed talks, although there is now one
timetabled meeting to fire-up activity, which this year is on Tuesday.
If you have an open problem you would like to present, or have presented,
at the conference, please write to the IWOCA Problem Session Chairs:
Alessio Conte (conte@di.unipi.it) and Gabriele Fici (gabriele.fici@unipa.it).
Open problems are collected and documented on the IWOCA homepage:
https://nms.kcl.ac.uk/iwoca/index_problems.html

=============================
SATELLITE WORKSHOPS July 8
=============================
GraphMasters Open workshop (http://graphmasters.di.unipi.it/) and
StringMasters workshop ( https://nms.kcl.ac.uk/stringmasters/)
will be on July 8, 2021, following IWOCA 2021. They are informal,
collaborative and open to everyone with no registration fee.
