IFIP Working Group 2.11, Fifteenth Meeting

November 9-12, 2015, London, England

The meeting will be held in London, England, hosted by Paul Kelly. There will be an excursion, details to be announced.

Venue

The venue will be 170 Queen’s Gate (http://www.170queensgate.co.uk), which is almost next door to the Department of Computing at Imperial, and is in the heart of London’s “Museum Quarter”.

Travel

Train: London has good train connections to much of northern Europe (Paris < 2.5 hours, Amsterdam < 5 hours). London has five airports: Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, London City and Luton. All are roughly 1-1.5 hours from Imperial. Heathrow and London City are somewhat cheaper since they're on the tube network.

Accommodation

Imperial's conferences office offers support in finding accommodation options [1]

The Queensgate Hotel ([2]) is particularly convenient (right across the street) and is recommended by previous visitors.

If you need a cheaper option, there are cheaper hotels; our experience with them is mixed. We have had good experience with this agency, which offers rooms in private homes: [3] You should expect a significant commute of course.

Excursions

There will be an excursion one afternoon during the meeting time.
