The consortium of Italian Computer Science PhD granting institutions under the auspices of GRIN, organizes an annual school offering three graduate-level courses aimed at first-year PhD students in Computer Science. In addition to introducing students to timely research topics, the school is meant to promote acquaintance and collaboration among young European researchers. The 2015 edition of the School is the 21th in the series. The school will offer 3 courses each consisting of 13 hours of lectures:

– Game Theory: Models, Numerical Methods, and Applications (University of Palermo),
– Protection of sensitive information Catuscia Palamidessi (INRIA Saclay and LIX),
– Introduction to Modern Cryptography (University of Salerno)

A final evaluation for each course is possible through a final exam or project as determined by the instructor. The daily schedule admits laboratory and/or working group activities to be organized in addition to the lectures.
