Agenda

It is assumed that all participants are sufficiently knowledgeable about object oriented programming in C++, Java and/or python and familiar with CORBA. Links to relevant information can be found in the reference documentation (see below). The course is based on previous experiences that have been organized since 2004 and consists of a technical hands-on course using the ALMA Common Software (ACS) framework, alternated with short technical talks and discussions.
