ASSEMBLY Summer 2009 - Computer Festival

ASSEMBLY Summer 2009 - Finland's largest computer festival in Helsinki, 6th to 9th of August 2009.

ASSEMBLY is a four day computer festival , in which thousands of people and their computers spend the long weekend by meeting friends, playing games, surfing on the net, talking on IRC and enjoying the great productions from the demoscene.

About KEEP session at the ASSEMBLY 2009:

For more than a decade emulators have been used widely within the gamer community to maintain access to old games independently of their original hardware. An European Community funded research project has now been established with the express purpose of harnessing experience in this area and utilizing emulation as a effective and practical component of the long-term preservation strategy of cultural heritage organizations.

The seminar is planned as an open forum to introduce KEEP (Keeping Emulation Environments Portable) and to discuss emulator-centric long-term preservation topics with emulator programmers and with a wider audience.
