Dear Colleagues,

this is to announce that a 1-day school on transport simulations by DFT-Keldish methods has been appended to the coming network meeting at Balaton.

The school will take place on friday, 17th June, and will consist of a hand-on tutorial on the use of Smeagol.

The program will appear shortly at the network meeting web page.

To give a flavor of the topics covered in the school, please read below the current preliminary program:

 9:00-10:00     Brief primer of transport theory.
10:00-10:30     Primer on SIESTA
10:30-11:30     hands-on on SIESTA
11:30-12:00     Break
12:00-12:30     Primer on SMEAGOL
12:30-13:30     First Example: gold chain
13:30-15:00     Lunch
15:00-16:00     Second example: Au-BDT
16:00-16:30     FIREBALL and SMEAGOL
16:30-17:30     Example with FIREBALL
17:30-18:00     Break
18:00-19:00     Third example: graphene-something
19:00           Closure

Attendants to the school should bring a laptop, with some version of linux and a decent fortran compiler installed.
