About PATAT2020

Dear all,

Due to the continued spread of COVID-19, the local organizing committee has taken the difficult decision to postpone the 13th International Conference on the Practice and Theory of Automated Timetabling to 23-26 August 2022 (click to go to the PATAT 2022 website).

We are aware that an internationally oriented scientific and technical conference has implications for transmission of the infection and therefore, in the best interests of everyone’s health, we felt that it was our responsibility to postpone the conference.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience that this decision may cause, and we want to stress that we did not take this decision lightly. We hope we can welcome you in 2022 in Bruges, and thank everyone for their support.

Sincerely,
Professor Patrick De Causmaecker and Professor Greet Vanden Berghe, on behalf of the Local Organizing Committee
