The school will be held in two phases:

• September 11th and 12th in Verona, at the Industrial Computer Engineering (ICE) Laboratory of the University of Verona. The first phase will focus on modeling languages (e.g., AutomationML, SysML, etc.) for modeling industrial cyber-physical systems. The students will also have the chance to experience the smart manufacturing systems available in the ICE laboratory.
• September 13th to 15th in Torino, collocated with the Forum on Design and specification Language. During the second phase, the students will attend a series of guest lectures, hands-on tutorials and career panels. Furthermore, the students will participate in networking events, collocated with the forum, where they will have the chance to discuss their research with experts in their fields, and companies operating in the field of manufacturing, cyber-physical systems, IoT, etc.

The application process for candidate attendees starts by filling out the application form. The registration will be restricted to 30 attendees, selected based on their curriculum. In case of equal curriculum, the organizing committee will consider criteria, such as gender and provenance balanced representation.
Once the process of admission is completed successfully, for which you will receive a notification via email, you will be allowed to register and pay for the fees within the deadline specified in the notification.

• FDL Reception on Thursday;
• Transportation from Verona to Turin on September 12 (only for registrations completed before August 21).

The applicant to the summer school are also encourage to apply at the FDL 2023 Ph.D. Forum. The Ph.D. Forum at FDL 2023 will be a poster session giving Ph.D. students the opportunity to present their ongoing research to various experts from industry and academia operating in languages, tools, and techniques for hardware and software system development. During the poster session, senior faculties and researchers from the industry will provide the selected student with valuable feedback about their ongoing research. The forum can also help the students to establish contacts with second reviewers or to enter the job market.

The summer school is organized in two phases: the first phase will be held in Verona, while the second phase will be held in Torino. The transfer between the two venues will be organized by the school.

Verona

The first phase of the summer summerschool.htmlschool will be held at the ICE Laboratory of the University of Verona. The ICE Laboratory was set up to promote synergy between the technological innovation of Industry 4.0 and the education and research centers located in the Verona area. The facility serves as a technological demonstrator, functional to reconfigure industrial processes such as additive and subtractive manufacturing, quality control, assembly, and parts storage.



The laboratory is located nearby the city center of Verona. The city worldwide known as the place where William Shakespeare decided to lay the scene of its most famous tragedy: Romeo and Juliet.



More information about how to reach the location, and hotels nearby, will be provided to the accepted applicants.

Torino

The second phase of the summer school will be co-located with the Forum on design and Specification Languages. More information are available here.

The Ph.D. School on Design and Specification Languages is organized in the context of the European Project DeFacto – Design Automation for Smart Factories. This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant agreement No. 894237.
