Details
We are very thankful to the Department of Econometrics and in particular to Professor Christophe Croux and Jonathan Cornelissen for inviting us. PARKING: The group of Prof. Croux arranged to have free access to the parking inside the building of the Faculty of Business and Economics. You can enter that parking in the Vlamingenstraat: http://goo.gl/maps/vZh5J . Then move to the building closest to Naamsestraat. Alternatively, there is a paying parking "Parking Heilig Hart" at Naamsestraat: http://goo.gl/maps/WtcqZ
FOOD/DRINKS: Don't worry. There will be all you need ;). It is also provided by Prof. Croux.
TALKS: ** Jonathan Cornelissen - DataMind
Discover DataMind, a new online learning platform for data analysis and R, developed by a group of Belgian R enthusiasts!
** Tobias Verbeke (OpenAnalytics) - The R Service Bus
R is the statistical computing environment of choice but in many contexts statistical analyses need to be triggered in automated business processes or workflows.
The R Service Bus is a communication middleware and work manager for R that allows to plug R into such processes independently of the technology used. Several use cases will be demonstrated where the R Service Bus has proven its value, and some technical details will be given on how integration exercises have been tackled in industry.
