ESTC 2024

SEPTEMBER 11–13, 2024 BERLIN, GERMANY

Technical Program Committee

The Technical Program Committee plays an important role in ensuring the quality of ESTC. Reviewing the submitted abstracts and papers and finally compiling an interesting and high-class technical program is only possible based on expert driven subcommittees.

The Technical Program Chair, coordinating the work of the subcommittees, changes from one ESTC to the next, while most of the subcommittee members already support ESTC for a long time. There is one subcommittee for each of the conference topics and one additional subcommittee responsible for the poster presentations.
