^ACED organizes seminars on a regular basis and a conference once a year. Two types of seminars are distinguished: Brown Bag Brainstorm Sessions (3Bs) and full paper presentations. In the former extended abstracts are presented followed by a structured brainstorm to develop preliminary research ideas. In the latter, participants present more elaborated pieces of original research.

From October 2012: see W.I.P. (Work in Progress) sessions.
