WG211/M15Schedule

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 (Imperial College). The meeting will last 3.5 days, the first three days (Nov 9-11) will be full-day, whereas the last day (Nov 12) will be a half-day session ending with lunch (note: an email wrongly indicated the meeting as being Nov 9-11, as should be clear from this page, the duration is Nov 9-12 ending in a half day).

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], we suggest one of the following two options:

• The Queensgate Hotel ([2]) is particularly convenient (right across the street) and is recommended by previous visitors.
• London Town Hotel (15 Penywern Rd, Kensington and Chelsea, London, SW5 9TY, United Kingdom) which is not too far and cheaper than Queensgate, see booking.com [3] and tripadvisor [4]

In general there are many other hotels to choose from. In particular, if you need a cheaper option, there are many cheap hotels; our experience with them is mixed. We do have had good experience with this agency, which offers rooms in private homes: [5] You should expect a significant commute of course.

Excursions

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