ʺFollowing a biennial tradition, the Classification and Data Analysis Group of the Italian Statistical Society ‐ CLADAG will have its international meeting in 2010 jointly with the German Classification Society ‐ GfKl. The conference serves the aim to deepen existing scientific cooperation between Italian and German data analysts, to establish new cooperation between members of the two societies, and to provide a forum for exchange of ideas between them. We do hope that this call will arouse your interest in taking part in the conference.ʺ Scientific Program Committee Antonio Giusti (co‐chair) Filippo Domma Luigi Fabbris Andrea Giommi Carlo Lauro Isabella Morlini Gabriele Soffritti Rosanna Verde Donatella Vicari Gunter Ritter (co‐chair) Daniel Baier Reinhold Decker Christian Hennig Berthold Lausen Hermann Locarek‐Junge Lars Schmidt‐Thieme Alfred Ultsch Claus Weihs Session arrangement Andrea Giommi (chairman) Bruno Bertaccini Matilde Bini Antonio Giusti Anna Gottard Leonardo Grilli Riccardo Innocenti Alessandra Mattei Alessandra Petrucci Carla Rampichini Emilia Rocco Registration Fees 1.
