We are excited to welcome you to 2017, a new conference
focused on everything to do with programming. It takes place at the
Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium on April 3-6. The
conference is closely associated with the open-access journal "The Art,
Science, and Engineering of Programming". The journal's first two
issues form the conference's research track, which means you can freely
access all papers presented at the conference before it even starts!
Along with the research track, 2017 features a program
with two main keynotes, two symposia, eight workshops, a coding dojo, a
demo track, and a student research competition.
To catch a glimpse of what 2017 has to offer, feel free to
have a look at our overview video:

About Brussels
***
Brussels is the capital of Belgium, and home to the headquarters of the
European Union. Despite its European nature and all the different
languages spoken on every street corner, Brussels still has a very
"village-like" character. It's well known for its Grand-Place, its
Atomium, its Manneken-Pis, its Gueuze and its Kriek, its waffles and its
chocolates. Be sure to take some time off to soak up the special
atmosphere of its many different districts: Take a stroll to Rue
Dansaert, Halles Saint-Géry, and Place Sainte-Catherine. Head for
Saint-Boniface, Châtelain, or Flagey. In other words, go ahead and
relish Brussels, a fine and beautiful city to explore and discover.
