ADBIS 2012 - 15th East-European Conference on Advances in Databases and Information Systems

The conference will be held in the campus of the Poznan University of Technology. All the conference events will be held in the modern Lecture and Conference Center, located near a historic island where the Cathedral was built. The construction of the whole Conference Center was finished in 2011. It has around 30 lecture halls with the capacity ranging from 30 up to 600 people. The Conference Center includes multiple computer labs equipped with workstations of the capacity from 15 to 30 units. All the lecture halls and labs are air-conditioned and equipped with state-of-the-art audio-visual equipment allowing to display presentations either from desktop PCs or to plug in private laptops.
