ARCHIMEDES proudly supports the European Summer School on Artificial Intelligence (ESSAI), the premier school on Artificial Intelligence in Europe. The School is held every year by theEuropean Association for Artificial Intelligence (EurAI)together with the Advanced Course on Artificial Intelligence (ACAI), and it will be organized jointly with the 4thTAILORSummer School on Artificial Intelligence.

The local organization of ESSAI & ACAI 2024 is led by theArtificial Intelligence Teamof theDept. of Informatics and Telecommunications of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, in collaboration with theHellenic Artificial Intelligence Society.

ESSAI 2024 will offer many courses covering all areas of Artificial Intelligence and being taught by top experts in the field. Every course will consist of 5 lectures of 90 minutes each spread over one week. The courses will be solicited through an open call for proposals and will be selected by an international program committee. ACAI 2024 will offer invited tutorials (of 2x90min each) on a topic to be announced.

ESSAI & ACAI 2024 continue a tradition started by ACAI in 1985. Last year,ESSAI & ACAI took place in Lublijana, Slovenia. It was an immensely successful event which attracted more than 500 students.
