Day 1 (Monday, 28th March
In one of the early seminar sessions, we will have an introduction round with all participants / organizers introducing themselves.
Please prepare a brief presentation of roughly 10 minutes for that purpose, outlining yourself and your research interests. Please explain how your research currently relate to big data and disaster recovery. These introductions should provide some interesting problems or provide fruitful insights which can be used to start further discussions.
