IFIP Working Group 2.11, Twenty-second Meeting

April 3rd–4th 2023 in Delft, The Netherlands

The meeting will be hosted by Peter Mosses.

The meeting will last 2 full days; it will be followed by EVCS: Eelco Visser Commemorative Symposium on April 5th.

EVCS: Eelco Visser Commemorative Symposium

A commemorative symposium for Eelco Visser is to be held on April 5th 2023: the first anniversary of his untimely passing. It will bring together colleagues from various communities, with presentations of papers on topics related to his research and his other academic activities.

For further details, see the symposium website.

Venue

The Twenty-second meeting of WG 2.11 takes place on the campus of Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) in Building 36 located at Mekelweg 4, 2628 CD, Delft.

A co-located meeting of WG 2.16 takes place on the same days.

Meeting rooms

The WG 2.11 meetings are in Snijderzaal (Monday) and Timmanzaal (Tuesday).

The WG 2.16 meetings are in Timmanzaal (Monday) and Lipkenszaal (Tuesday).

The joint talk on Monday afternoon is in Snijderzaal.

The route from the Mekelpark bus stop to the meeting rooms in building 36 is shown below:

Lunch room

The lunch room is in Building 28 located at Van Mourik Broekmanweg 6, 2628 XE Delft. The route starts from the other side of Mekelweg from building 36:

Travel

Getting to Delft

The city of Delft is located about halfway between The Hague (Den Haag) and Rotterdam.

Delft has two train stations:

  • The main one Delft (“Delft Station” on travel planners) has frequent Intercity (IC) connections from Amsterdam, The Hague, Rotterdam, and other Dutch cities.
  • The smaller Delft Campus station has only Sprinter connections – Intercity trains do not stop there.

You can reach Amsterdam and Rotterdam by high-speed trains from:

  • Germany and Switzerland (ICE International via Utrecht),
  • Belgium and France (Thalys),
  • England (Eurostar).

The closest airports to Delft are Schiphol Airport (AMS) and Rotterdam-The Hague Airport (RTM).

  • Schiphol Airport has train connections to Delft (usually every 15 minutes, and taking about 40 minutes). Some connections are direct, for others you need to change at Leiden.
  • Rotterdam-The Hague Airport has bus connections to Rotterdam.

To determine your route and travel time to (or in) Delft you can use 9292.

For information about car parking, see the Contact and Accessibility section on the TU Delft website.

In Delft

The main bus and tram station in Delft is next to Delft train station. Bus routes 40, 69, and 174 go from the station directly to the venue. The bus stop to get off at is Delft, Mekelpark.  The ride takes about 10 minutes.

Walking to the venue from the main Delft station takes about 30 minutes (2.5 km), and from Delft Campus train station about 15 minutes (1.3 km).

Train and bus tickets

You may now be able to check in and out using your contactless debit card, credit card or mobile phone. That is already possible for all NS trains (for travel in 2nd class). The same goes for *most* bus and tram companies. See the OVpay website for full details and updates.

You can also use an anonymous OV-chipcard to travel by all forms of public transportation in The Netherlands. This is a blue-coloured card with no personal details on it, and can therefore be used by anyone (but not for group travel). You can buy an OV-chipcard at the train station at an NS (Dutch Railways) ticketing machine or NS service desk. It can also be bought at large supermarkets (Albert Heijn, Jumbo) or tobacco shops (Primera, Readshop, Bruna). The price is €7.50. It remains valid for 5 years.

The OV-chipcard gives you access to travel in 2nd class. You need a balance of at least €20 to travel by train. You can charge credit on your OV-chipcard at the ticket machines at the train stations and tobacco shops. Once credit has been charged onto your card, you can check in at the designated posts or turnstiles, which are usually located close to or on the platform. Don’t forget to check out once you leave any form of public transport!

In trams and buses you can also buy a paper day-ticket or a single-use, disposable chipcard instead of an anonymous OV-chipcard. For metros you can buy a ticket at the ticket machines near the platform or metro station.

Note: Most ticket machines do not accept cash, nor do buses and trams.

Accommodation

We recommend that you stay at  Hotel Arsenaal or Hotel Grand Canal. These hotels are conveniently located within 5 minutes walking distance of Delft’s main station, between the station and the university campus.

Other conveniently located hotels in Delft include Ibis Styles Hotel, WestCord Hotel, and The Social Hub.

Registration

The registration deadline was on Friday 10 March.

The registration fee covers:

  • the group lunches and dinners on Monday 3 and Tuesday 4 April;
  • the EVCS lunch and social dinner on the Wednesday 5 April.

Excursion

Based on the registered interest for an excursion and dinner on Sunday, we have now arranged:

  • a combined canal and guided walking tour in Delft from 15:00 to 17:30, and
  • a dinner from 18:30 to 21:00.

(There was insufficient interest/availability for a Thursday excursion.)

Please see here for further details regarding the locations. Registration for the excursion and/or the dinner has now closed.

The fee is 25 euro for the combined canal and guided walking tour, and 45 euro for the dinner (3-course, incl. 2 drinks). The restaurant doesn’t need advance notice of dietary restrictions.
