Message from the General Chair

I am honored to host the DSD/SEAA event in Verona, one of the most important cities in North-Eastern Italy. Verona is a splendid city of art, well-known through the Shakespearean tragedy of Romeo and Juliet. Roman ruins, medieval vestiges, Venetian and Austrian traces can be seen all across the city, as well as antique palaces, bridges and churches. For these reasons Verona is the fourth Italian city for the number of tourists and it is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Close to Verona, you can also visit Lake Garda, the greatest Italian lake, impressive mountains, and lovely hills full of vineyards.
