Schloss Dagstuhl - Leibniz Center for Informatics (German: Schloss Dagstuhl - Leibniz-Zentrum für Informatik GmbH) is the world's premier venue for informatics. It enables the international elite, promising young researchers and practicians alike to gather together to discuss their views and research findings.
The Center promotes fundamental and applied research, continuing and advanced academic education, and the transfer of knowledge between those involved in the research side and application side of informatics.
