A group of German software engineering professors share Dagstuhl with us this week. They are meeting to discuss future directions of German software engineering research and to find ways to increase student enrollment. The drop in students desiring a computer science degree is not just an American phenomenon.

Back in Dagstuhl
I'm back in Dagstuhl for the workshop on Algebraic Methods
in Computational Complexity. The
roof looks great. I have attended several Dagstuhl workshops for
over twelve years now since the workshop on Structure and
Complexity Theory in 1992. I have seen Dagstuhl expand and evolve over
these years and this is the first time I feel that Dagstuhl has
achieved its completed state. I love coming here; Dagstuhl has a
contained environment in a pretty but boring part of Germany where we
complexity theorists give seminars, eat and drink together and talk
science and other stuff. Politics and baseball seem to dominate the
discussions this week.

Why bother? Is it not true that there is a glut of such graduates?
