    63 The nearest stop of public transportation
       
    64 (\includegraphics*[scale=0.1]{s-Bahn-Logo.png}-Bahn) is \emph{Rosenheimer
       
    65 Platz}. For detailed travel information see separate section. Note also that
       
    66 the conference centre is located in a separate building, reachable by a short walk
       
    67 from the lobby of the hotel.

    69 \section{Welcome Reception}
       
    70 
       
    71 There will be a welcome reception on Sunday, August 16th, from  18:00 to 20:00.
       
    72 It will take place in the restaurant \emph{Le Jardin} in the conference hotel.
       
    73 
       
    74 \section{Registration}
       
    75 
       
    76 A registration desk will be open during the reception on Sunday
       
    77 and also on all days during the conference.
       
    78 
       
    79 \section{Presentations}
       
    80 
       
    81 We will provide a laptop with Microsoft PowerPoint and Acrobat Reader. We
       
    82 strongly advise presenters to send us their slides by Friday, August 14th, 
       
    83 to allow us enough time for making a test and uploading them for the
       
    84 respective session.
       
    85 Of course you can also bring your own laptop, but we would prefer to use
       
    86 a single laptop in order to reduce the time needed to set up the 
       
    87 presentations.
       
    88 
       
    89 \section{Posters}
       
    90 
       
    91 For the poster session on Tuesday, August 18th, panels that can accommodate
       
    92 posters up to size A1 (594 $\times$ 841 millimeters) will be available.
       
    93 The poster will be attached to the panel with pins, which will be provided by us.
       
    94 
       
    95 \section{Lunch Breaks}
       
    96 
       
    97 Lunch and coffee will be provided during all conference and workshop days. 
       
    98 Lunch will be served in the restaurant \emph{Le Jardin} in the hotel.
       
    99 You can have mineral water for free with your lunch. Other drinks need to 
       
   100 be ordered for an extra fee.
       
   101 
       
   102 \section{Internet Access}
       
   103 
       
   104 Free WLAN access will be provided at the conference centre from August 17th
       
   105 until 21st. The name of the network is \emph{m3connect} (but \emph{novotel} and
       
   106 \emph{vodafone} should work as well). The network parameters are
       
   107 configured via DHCP. 
       
   108 
       
   109 \underline{\bf Note that the WLAN is shared!!!} 
       
   110 
       
   111 This means that the available capacity is shared among all users, and each of
       
   112 the access points in the conference centre can only handle a fixed number of
       
   113 connections at the same time. We therefore kindly ask you to refrain from
       
   114 using any bandwidth-hungry applications, such as video streaming, and from
       
   115 downloading large files. Please also disconnect from the network whenever you do
       
   116 not need it.
       
   117 
       
   118 
       
   119 A cable-based Internet access is available in the rooms of Novotel for an
       
   120 extra fee (\euro{19.90} for 24h). There is also a single computer in the
       
   121 lobby of the hotel from which you can access the Internet for free. 
       
   122 
       
   123 \section{Proceedings}
       
   124 
       
   125 Hardcopies of the conference proceedings will be available at the registration desk. 
       
   126 The LNCS number of the proceedings is 5674. At the moment there
       
   127 is not yet a link at the website of Springer.
       
   128 
       
   129 Ten hardcopies of the Emerging Trends proceedings will be also available at
       
   130 the registration desk. Feel free to take them. But if you are finished with reading them,
       
   131 then please return them so that other participants can read them as
       
   132 well. The Emerging Trends proceedings can also be downloaded from
       
   133

   140 \section{Excursion and Banquet}
       
   141 
       
   142 On Wednesday, August 19th from 13:00 to about 00:15, there will be an excursion to the
       
   143 lake \emph{Starnberg} including a boat cruise, followed by the conference banquet.
       
   144 
       
   145 We will leave at the hotel at about 13:00 and go to the S-Bahn station
       
   146 \emph{Rosenheimer Platz}, from where we will take the S6 to \emph{Starnberg} at 13:27
       
   147 (the train ticket for the excursion is included in the conference fee). We
       
   148 shall arrive in \emph{Starnberg} at 14:04 and walk to the nearby embarkation point of
       
   149 the boat at lake \emph{Starnberg}, from where the boat will depart at 14:30. The boat
       
   150 has an on-board cafeteria, where you can buy snacks and drinks. We shall
       
   151 leave the boat again in \emph{Bernried} at 16:43, where we will visit the Buchheim-Museum
       
   152 (\url{http://www.buchheimmuseum.de}), featuring a notable collection of
       
   153 Expressionist paintings. We will have a guided tour there, which will take
       
   154 about 1.5 hours. After the guided tour, you are free to explore the museum on
       
   155 your own, but please make sure that you are at the exit of the museum at 19:00.
       
   156 The museum is quite large, so it is easy to get lost! Also note that bags must not
       
   157 be brought into the museum and have to be put into lockers near the entrance.
       
   158 You might therefore want to leave your bags at the hotel.
       
   159 We shall leave at the museum
       
   160 at 19:00 and go to the train station in \emph{Bernried}, from where we will
       
   161 go back to \emph{Starnberg} at 19:46. We have to change trains in Tutzing at
       
   162 19:52, and will arrive in
       
   163 \emph{Starnberg} again at 20:14, where we will have dinner at the
       
   164 \emph{Undosa Seerestaurant} (\url{http://www.undosa.de}). We shall leave the
       
   165 restaurant shortly after 23:00 to take the train back to Munich at 23:34,
       
   166 which will arrive at \emph{Rosenheimer Platz} around a quarter past midnight.
       
   167

   170 \section{Coq and PLMMS Workshops}
       
   171 
       
   172 The workshops will take place on Friday, August 21st, at the same
       
   173 location as the main conference. More information on the workshops can be
       
   174 found on the web site of the conference.
       
   175 
       
   176 \section{Weather}
       
   177 
       
   178 Weather in Munich in August is usually quite pleasant with average
       
   179 temperatures around 20\degree C (High: 27\degree C, Low: 14\degree C). 
       
   180 However, it is also common that it is raining for prolonged periods. 
       
   181 To bring a waterproof jacket and an umbrella is advised. 
       
   182 
       
   183 \section{Opening Hours, Public Holidays}
       
   184 
       
   185 In Germany, nearly all shops are open from Monday to Saturday from
       
   186 9:00 to 18:00. Many of them also until 20:00. On Sundays shops
       
   187 are closed, as well as on Saturday, August 15, since it is 
       
   188 a public holiday. During that time only a few shops are open
       
   189 at the train station and the airport. Most restaurants and beer gardens, 
       
   190 however, are open every day.
       
   191   
       
   192 \section{Travel}
       
   193 
       
   194 \subsection{Arriving by Plane}
       
   195 
       
   196 Munich airport is located about 35km from the city centre. The
       
   197 airport has two terminals that are adjacent to each other. From the
       
   198 airport, you can take a taxi to the hotel, but it is a {\bf very} expensive
       
   199 ride ($>$ \euro{50}).
       
   200 
       
   201 
       
   202 Our advice is to take the cheaper option of public transportation using the
       
   203 \emph{S-Bahn}. These are local trains that depart from the central area of
       
   204 the airport every 20 mins and run from 4 o'clock in the morning until past
       
   205 midnight. Follow the sign \includegraphics*[scale=0.1]{s-Bahn-Logo.png} to the
       
   206 trains. You have to take the train labelled S8 (yellow-and-black line in the map
       
   207 below):
       
   208

   211 \end{quote}
       
   212 
       
   213 It is not recommended to take the S1 to the city centre: it brings
       
   214 you also there, but it takes a large detour. A plan of the whole public 
       
   215 transportation network of Munich can be downloaded in PDF from
       
   216

   220 
       
   221 We advise you to print out a copy.
       
   222 
       
   223 If you are staying at the conference hotel, you have to get off
       
   224 at \emph{Rosenheimer Platz} (10 stops from the airport) and just 
       
   225 follow  the signs to the Novotel. The trip from the airport to the hotel  
       
   226 takes about 35 mins. You can query the timetable and journey planner for 
       
   227 the trip from the airport to the city centre at
       
   228

   232 
       
   233 \subsection{Purchasing Tickets}
       
   234 
       
   235 Before taking the train, you have to purchase and validate your ticket. In
       
   236 front of the entrance to the platform there is a ticket counter, which is
       
   237 staffed during working hours, and also automatic ticket machines. If you use the
       
   238 machines you need to have enough coins or sufficiently small bank notes. The machines
       
   239 give change.  The sales people at the ticket counter also accept credit cards
       
   240 (the sales people should be able to speak English).
       
   241 
       
   242 
       
   243 If you plan to travel straight to the conference hotel, you have to purchase a
       
   244 
       
   245 \begin{itemize}
       
   246 \item Single Ticket (\emph{Einzelfahrkarte}) 4 Zones, valid for only one trip,
       
   247  price \euro{9.20}
       
   248 \end{itemize} 
       
   249 
       
   250 If on the arrival day you plan to go somewhere else, you can also buy
       
   251 a day ticket for the whole network of Munich
       
   252 
       
   253 \begin{itemize}
       
   254 \item Single day ticket for the entire network (\emph{Single-Tageskarte
       
   255   Gesamtnetz}), price \euro{10.00}
       
   256 \end{itemize}
       
   257 
       
   258 If you happen to travel together with up to four colleagues, you can save money
       
   259 by buying a Partner Day Ticket for the entire network
       
   260 
       
   261 \begin{itemize}
       
   262 \item Partner Day Ticket (\emph{Partner-Tageskarte Gesamtnetz}), price
       
   263   \euro{18.00}
       
   264 \end{itemize}
       
   265 
       
   266 Do not forget to \emph{validate} the tickets before travelling! You can 
       
   267 validate your ticket by inserting it into one of the small blue machines
       
   268 (shown below) close to the entrance of the platform.

   273 
       
   274 \subsection{Arriving by Train}
       
   275 
       
   276 Most of the intercity trains either arrive at \emph{Hauptbahnhof} or at \emph{Ostbahnhof}. From
       
   277 \emph{Hauptbahnhof}, you can take any S-Bahn in the direction of \emph{Ostbahnhof}.
       
   278 If you are staying at the conference hotel, you have to get off
       
   279 at \emph{Rosenheimer Platz}. If your train arrives at \emph{Ostbahnhof}, get off there
       
   280 and take any S-Bahn in the direction of the city centre / \emph{Hauptbahnhof}.
       
   281 Note that \emph{Rosenheimer Platz} is already the next stop after \emph{Ostbahnhof}.
       
   282 See above for information about ticket purchases.

   289 \subsection*{Beer Gardens}
       
   290 
       
   291 A beer garden (German \emph{Biergarten}) is an open-air area where beverages
       
   292 (preferably beer) and prepared food are served. Beer gardens have a long
       
   293 tradition in Munich stemming from distant times when brewers were desperate to keep
       
   294 their beer cool during the summer. What they did is to store their barrels in
       
   295 cellars near the river Isar and to plant chestnut trees above them, since their
       
   296 wide branches and large leaves keep the place nice and shady. Nowadays,
       
   297 weather permitting, the inhabitants of Munich flock to these beer gardens, usually
       
   298 seating a few thousand people, and socialise over a litre or more (sic) of beer.
