 CERG Activities

CERG Meetings. Meetings of all CERG members take place each week.  Each week, a CERG member usually presents research in progress or we review a paper. As needed, we review CERG publication and proposal progress, discuss practical issues relating to operations in the UQUL, and schedule more focused meetings around emerging needs, visitors, or other opportunities.

All discussions are part of CERG meetings on Monday mornings at 9 am in MC109 (the Key Centre meeting room), unless otherwise noted.

Week Date Format Presenter Topic
Most meetings are now being listed under the NICTA COSE initiative.
