Results and Impact An important activity of COMBINE is to organise common meetings, where the developers of the different standards can meet and work together. In 2010, we inaugurated a new, broader series of meetings to replace, the existing individual forums and hackathons. The new meetings are a recognition of the fact that there are multiple allied standardization efforts that should work together towards smooth interoperability. Moreover, we believe a joint meeting makes good economic sense: compared to multiple separate workshops, they reduce the overall number of meetings, travel, and money spent over the year.
Those events, as others related to our field of research are gathered in a calendar.
Annual COMBINE forums
The annual COMBINE forums are workshop-style events with oral presentations plus discussion, poster and breakout sessions. They are aimed at further developing the standards. The meetings cover the COMBINE standards and associated or related standardization efforts. The participants are everyone wishing to participate to the development of the standards.
