LOCATION ======== The Conference is being hosted by the Conservatoire National des Arts et Metiers (CNAM) and will be part of its Bicentennial celebration. CNAM is a well-known engineering school where professionals are taught by professionals. It houses the famous Musee National Des Arts et Techniques, and is located at 292 Rue Saint Martin in the old center of Paris, on the right bank of the river Seine. It is walking distance from Les Halles, the Centre National d'Art et de Culture Georges-Pompidou (Beaubourg), the Hotel de Ville (City Hall) and the cathedral Notre-Dame de Paris. The nearest Metro station is Arts et Metiers. Paris normally enjoys pleasant summer weather in early July. Days are warm, but nights may be cool. For general information on Paris, contact the Paris Tourist Information Office, 127 Champs Elysees, 75008 Paris, phone number 33 (1) 49 52 53 54. RECEPTIONS ========== A Welcome Reception will be held on Sunday evening (17:00-19:00) in a gallery of CNAM. The Conference Banquet will be held in the palace housing the Senate, the upper chamber of the French Parliament. The palace was built in the beginning of the 17th century for Marie de Medicis, widow of King Henry IV. It is located in the well-known Jardins du Luxembourg. To reserve a place at the banquet, the appropriate column on the registration form must be marked; a banquet reservation on site will not be possible. LOCAL ARRANGEMENTS ================== Lunches are at the participants' own expense. Participants may eat in cafes and restaurants in CNAM's vicinity. Telephone messages will be delivered to participants during breaks. Access to email will be possible from CNAM. The organizers cannot be held liable to conference participants for injury, damage or loss of their personal property. It is suggested that participants make their own insurance arrangements. REGISTRATION DESK ================= A registration and information desk located at the conference site will operate on Sunday, July 3, from 15:00 to 18:00, and on the remaining conference days from 8:00 to 18:00. TRAVEL ====== Paris has two airports, Roissy-Charles de Gaulle, 30km north of Paris, and Orly, 20km south of Paris. A frequent Air France bus service goes from Roissy to Place Charles de Gaulle-Etoile or Porte Maillot in central Paris (the cost is about 48FF); from Orly the bus goes to Invalides and stops on demand at Montparnasse (32FF). There is also train service. From Roissy, the RER B line goes to Gare du Nord or Chatelet; from Orly, the Orlyval goes to Antony where there is a connection to the RER B (32FF). A taxi from Orly to central Paris costs about 150FF; from Roissy, 200FF. The Metro offers a convenient way to get around the city. Each trip (with unlimited transfers) costs one ticket. Tickets can be bought individually, but a carnet of 10 is more practical. RER lines to the suburbs connect with the Metro and cost more. Both Metro and RER tickets can be purchased from ticket booths or machines. A 40-45% discount may be obtained from AIR INTER for French domestic blue and white flights, depending on the days of departure. A voucher can be requested on the registration form. Participants requiring a visa for entry into France are strongly advised to make their application in their home countries at least two months prior to departure date.
