The Conference consists of 7 invited lectures (one hour each), 43 contribution presentations (20 minutes each on a podium or as a poster), panel discussion on "Thinking with diagrams", computer arts presentation and exhibition, presentation of recent experimental results (as in an open session) and editorial exhibition. These presentations may be accompanied by short videos and computer demonstrations. Registration to them will be also possible during the Conference. The Conference will be held at the hotel OSTANIEC situated in the midst of rocky Cracow-Czestochowa Jura - one of the most wonderful and interesting touristic regions of Poland, about 220 km south-west of Warsaw, 50 km east from Czestochowa, and 80 km from Katowice - which have regular bus and railway connections with Warsaw.
