Autobóz 2022

18-24 September, Sobótka, Poland

Autobóz is a yearly week-long invitational research camp on Logic, Automata, and Games. We strive to find each year a remote location to allow a group of about 25 young researchers to work in a distraction-free environment.

Started as a workshop for PhD students in Warsaw, Autobóz has grown to include researchers from all over the world, and multiple publications are direct consequences of the interactions fostered during these meetings.

This year's Autobóz will return to Poland, taking place in the village of Sobótka. Autobóz will take place the week following CONCUR and CONFEST which will be held in Warsaw.

Getting there

Copernicus Airport Wrocław (WRO) connects to several European hubs, and connects to Wrocław Główny (Wrocław main station) by bus. One can also easily travel by train to Wrocław from Warsaw (for example, if also attending CONCUR).

From Wrocław there are two options:

  • Travel by train from Wrocław Główny to Sobótka + approx 2.3km walk. (Note that Sobótka Zachodnia (West) station is somewhat further!). Approx 13 PLN (3€).
  • Travel by bus lines 512 or 522. See the timetable here, refer to the timetable for Saturday and Sunday ('rozkład na soboty i niedziele'). Stop 'Sobótka - Pod Wieżyca' is <1km from Villa Sobótka. Buses stop more frequently at 'Sobótka - pętla koło kościoła' in the centre, which is approx 1.5km from Villa Sobótka. Approx 9 PLN (2€).

Travel is not included in the fee.

Participants

We will add confirmed participants here once replies are received.

Open Problems

The bread and butter of the attendees is formed by open problems in automata, logic, games, and related topics.

Participants are asked to bring along their favourite open problems (that they are happy to work on with the group), and be ready to present them in the first days.

We gather past problems on this website:
