On this seminar, we had the opportunity to find out a lot about the works of Elaa Teftef from team ECUADOR which concerns adjoint Fixed-Point loops.
Elaa gaves us her presentation slides, which you can find here. She suggests the following ressources for those who want to know more on the subject:

Then, Nathalie Gayraud from team ATHENA showed us some communication and scientific dissemination techniques, following the 2-day workshop of Mr. Claude Vadel, recently realized in the premises of Inria. For those of you who are interested, information on the next such workshop will be following soon.
