Practical details
Registration
The registration is closed.
To facilitate the participation of young researchers, no registration fees will be asked. However, accommodation will not be provided but must be arranged independently by the participants.
Location of the mini-school
The mini-school will take place on the Pierre et Marie Curie (or Jussieu) campus of Sorbonne Université, 4 place Jussieu, 75005 Paris.

From the main entrance of the campus, go to Tower 16. Take the stairs or the elevator to the third level. Find corridor 15-16, and then the room 309. This is the seminar room of Laboratoire Jacques-Louis Lions. All the lectures will take place in this seminar room.
The special colloquium given by Jack Dongarra will take place on Tuesday 6 June, 14:00-15:00, Amphi 24 (near Tower 24).
Lunches
