Hi everyone,

All papers have been displayed on cms, and paper assignment starts. Please send your three choices (ranked by preference) to min.chen@cispa.saarland.

Besides, there won't be any student presentation next week, either we cancel the seminar or find some external person to give a talk. We will keep you guys updated by the middle of next week.

At last, we provide a doodle link for you to choose a possible time-slot for DAUD (for privacy, only TAs can see the results in the backend). https://doodle.com/poll/wku4ygbqn62achgt

Please vote ASAP.

Best regards,
