Details are not yet fixed, except that the seminar will have a focus on how to build fancy indexes, the heart of every search engine. An example is the search on this page (just start typing something in the search field in the left column, slowly letter by letter, and see what's happening; reload to get the seminar page again). The format of the seminar will be similar to that of last year's seminar.
Tuesday morning 11.15 - 12.45 h in room 024 (Harald-Ganzinger Lecture Hall) of the MPII.
Here is the link to the seminar Wiki, which we will use for various discussions, asking questions, uploading stuff, etc.
