+\end{center}
+
+
+The nearest stop of public transportation
+(\includegraphics*[scale=0.1]{s-Bahn-Logo.png}-Bahn) is \emph{Rosenheimer
+Platz}. For detailed travel information see separate section. Note also that
+the conference centre is located in a separate building, reachable by a short walk
+from the lobby of the hotel.
+
+\section{Welcome Reception}
+
+There will be a welcome reception on Sunday, August 16th, from  18:00 to 20:00.
+It will take place in the restaurant \emph{Le Jardin} in the conference hotel.
+
+\section{Registration}
+
+A registration desk will be open during the reception on Sunday
+and also on all days during the conference.
+
+\section{Presentations}
+
+We will provide a laptop with Microsoft PowerPoint and Acrobat Reader. We
+strongly advise presenters to send us their slides by Friday, August 14th, 
+to allow us enough time for making a test and uploading them for the
+respective session.
+Of course you can also bring your own laptop, but we would prefer to use
+a single laptop in order to reduce the time needed to set up the 
+presentations.
+
+\section{Posters}
+
+For the poster session on Tuesday, August 18th, panels that can accommodate
+posters up to size A1 (594 $\times$ 841 millimeters) will be available.
+The poster will be attached to the panel with pins, which will be provided by us.
+
+\section{Lunch Breaks}
+
+Lunch and coffee will be provided during all conference and workshop days. 
+Lunch will be served in the restaurant \emph{Le Jardin} in the hotel.
+You can have mineral water for free with your lunch. Other drinks need to 
+be ordered for an extra fee.
+
+\section{Internet Access}
+
+Free WLAN access will be provided at the conference centre from August 17th
+until 21st. The name of the network is \emph{m3connect} (but \emph{novotel} and
+\emph{vodafone} should work as well). The network parameters are
+configured via DHCP. 
+
+\underline{\bf Note that the WLAN is shared!!!} 
+
+This means that the available capacity is shared among all users, and each of
+the access points in the conference centre can only handle a fixed number of
+connections at the same time. We therefore kindly ask you to refrain from
+using any bandwidth-hungry applications, such as video streaming, and from
+downloading large files. Please also disconnect from the network whenever you do
+not need it.
+
+
+A cable-based Internet access is available in the rooms of Novotel for an
+extra fee (\euro{19.90} for 24h). There is also a single computer in the
+lobby of the hotel from which you can access the Internet for free. 
+
+\section{Proceedings}
+
+Hardcopies of the conference proceedings will be available at the registration desk. 
+The LNCS number of the proceedings is 5674. At the moment there
+is not yet a link at the website of Springer.
+
+Ten hardcopies of the Emerging Trends proceedings will be also available at
+the registration desk. Feel free to take them. But if you are finished with reading them,
+then please return them so that other participants can read them as
+well. The Emerging Trends proceedings can also be downloaded from
+

+\end{center}
+
+
+
+\section{Excursion and Banquet}
+
+On Wednesday, August 19th from 13:00 to about 00:15, there will be an excursion to the
+lake \emph{Starnberg} including a boat cruise, followed by the conference banquet.
+
+We will leave at the hotel at about 13:00 and go to the S-Bahn station
+\emph{Rosenheimer Platz}, from where we will take the S6 to \emph{Starnberg} at 13:27
+(the train ticket for the excursion is included in the conference fee). We
+shall arrive in \emph{Starnberg} at 14:04 and walk to the nearby embarkation point of
+the boat at lake \emph{Starnberg}, from where the boat will depart at 14:30. The boat
+has an on-board cafeteria, where you can buy snacks and drinks. We shall
+leave the boat again in \emph{Bernried} at 16:43, where we will visit the Buchheim-Museum
+(\url{http://www.buchheimmuseum.de}), featuring a notable collection of
+Expressionist paintings. We will have a guided tour there, which will take
+about 1.5 hours. After the guided tour, you are free to explore the museum on
+your own, but please make sure that you are at the exit of the museum at 19:00.
+The museum is quite large, so it is easy to get lost! Also note that bags must not
+be brought into the museum and have to be put into lockers near the entrance.
+You might therefore want to leave your bags at the hotel.
+We shall leave at the museum
+at 19:00 and go to the train station in \emph{Bernried}, from where we will
+go back to \emph{Starnberg} at 19:46. We have to change trains in Tutzing at
+19:52, and will arrive in
+\emph{Starnberg} again at 20:14, where we will have dinner at the
+\emph{Undosa Seerestaurant} (\url{http://www.undosa.de}). We shall leave the
+restaurant shortly after 23:00 to take the train back to Munich at 23:34,
+which will arrive at \emph{Rosenheimer Platz} around a quarter past midnight.
+
+
+
+\section{Coq and PLMMS Workshops}
+
+The workshops will take place on Friday, August 21st, at the same
+location as the main conference. More information on the workshops can be
+found on the web site of the conference.
+
+\section{Weather}
+
+Weather in Munich in August is usually quite pleasant with average
+temperatures around 20\degree C (High: 27\degree C, Low: 14\degree C). 
+However, it is also common that it is raining for prolonged periods. 
+To bring a waterproof jacket and an umbrella is advised. 
+
+\section{Opening Hours, Public Holidays}
+
+In Germany, nearly all shops are open from Monday to Saturday from
+9:00 to 18:00. Many of them also until 20:00. On Sundays shops
+are closed, as well as on Saturday, August 15, since it is 
+a public holiday. During that time only a few shops are open
+at the train station and the airport. Most restaurants and beer gardens, 
+however, are open every day.
+  
+\section{Travel}
+
+\subsection{Arriving by Plane}
+
+Munich airport is located about 35km from the city centre. The
+airport has two terminals that are adjacent to each other. From the
+airport, you can take a taxi to the hotel, but it is a {\bf very} expensive
+ride ($>$ \euro{50}).
+
+
+Our advice is to take the cheaper option of public transportation using the
+\emph{S-Bahn}. These are local trains that depart from the central area of
+the airport every 20 mins and run from 4 o'clock in the morning until past
+midnight. Follow the sign \includegraphics*[scale=0.1]{s-Bahn-Logo.png} to the
+trains. You have to take the train labelled S8 (yellow-and-black line in the map
+below):
+
+\begin{quote}
+  \url{http://www.munich-airport.de/en/consumer/anab/bahn/index.jsp}
+\end{quote}
+
+It is not recommended to take the S1 to the city centre: it brings
+you also there, but it takes a large detour. A plan of the whole public 
+transportation network of Munich can be downloaded in PDF from
+
+\begin{quote}
+\url{http://www.mvv-muenchen.de/web4archiv/objects/download/3/schnellbahnnetz_2009.pdf}
+\end{quote}
+
+We advise you to print out a copy.
+
+If you are staying at the conference hotel, you have to get off
+at \emph{Rosenheimer Platz} (10 stops from the airport) and just 
+follow  the signs to the Novotel. The trip from the airport to the hotel  
+takes about 35 mins. You can query the timetable and journey planner for 
+the trip from the airport to the city centre at
+
+\begin{quote}

+\end{quote}
+
+\subsection{Purchasing Tickets}
+
+Before taking the train, you have to purchase and validate your ticket. In
+front of the entrance to the platform there is a ticket counter, which is
+staffed during working hours, and also automatic ticket machines. If you use the
+machines you need to have enough coins or sufficiently small bank notes. The machines
+give change.  The sales people at the ticket counter also accept credit cards
+(the sales people should be able to speak English).
+
+
+If you plan to travel straight to the conference hotel, you have to purchase a
+
+\begin{itemize}
+\item Single Ticket (\emph{Einzelfahrkarte}) 4 Zones, valid for only one trip,
+ price \euro{9.20}
+\end{itemize} 
+
+If on the arrival day you plan to go somewhere else, you can also buy
+a day ticket for the whole network of Munich
+
+\begin{itemize}
+\item Single day ticket for the entire network (\emph{Single-Tageskarte
+  Gesamtnetz}), price \euro{10.00}
+\end{itemize}
+
+If you happen to travel together with up to four colleagues, you can save money
+by buying a Partner Day Ticket for the entire network
+
+\begin{itemize}
+\item Partner Day Ticket (\emph{Partner-Tageskarte Gesamtnetz}), price
+  \euro{18.00}
+\end{itemize}
+
+Do not forget to \emph{validate} the tickets before travelling! You can 
+validate your ticket by inserting it into one of the small blue machines
+(shown below) close to the entrance of the platform.
+
+\begin{center}
+\includegraphics*[scale=0.2]{Image074.jpg}
+\end{center}
+
+\subsection{Arriving by Train}
+
+Most of the intercity trains either arrive at \emph{Hauptbahnhof} or at \emph{Ostbahnhof}. From
+\emph{Hauptbahnhof}, you can take any S-Bahn in the direction of \emph{Ostbahnhof}.
+If you are staying at the conference hotel, you have to get off
+at \emph{Rosenheimer Platz}. If your train arrives at \emph{Ostbahnhof}, get off there
+and take any S-Bahn in the direction of the city centre / \emph{Hauptbahnhof}.
+Note that \emph{Rosenheimer Platz} is already the next stop after \emph{Ostbahnhof}.
+See above for information about ticket purchases.

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

+\section{Tourist Attractions}
+
+Munich has many tourist attractions. We recommend visits to the following three:
+
+\begin{itemize}
+\item \href{http://www.deutsches-museum.de/}{\bf Deutsches Museum} is, 
+  according to Wikipedia, the world's largest museum
+  of technology and science showing priceless artifacts and historic originals
+  including the first electric dynamo (Siemens, 1866), the first automobile 
+  (Benz, 1886), the first diesel engine (Diesel, 1897), and the laboratory
+  bench at which the atom was first split (Hahn, Strassmann, 1938). It also
+  contains a replica of Zuse's
+  \href{http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z3_(computer)}{Z3} machine (from 1941) 
+  and the original of 
+  the successor \href{http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z4_(computer)}{Z4}. 
+  The Z3 is, again according to Wikipedia, the world's

+
+The TPHOLs 2009 Organizing Team
+
+
+CONFERENCE VENUE
+
+The conference will take place at the Novotel Muenchen City. The contact
+information of the hotel is: 
+
+  Novotel Muenchen City
+  Hochstrasse 11
+  81669 Muenchen
+  Germany
+
+  Tel: +49 89 661070
+  Fax: +49 89 66107999
+  EMail: h3280@accor.com
+  Web: http://www.novotel.com/gb/hotel-3280-novotel-muenchen-city/index.shtml
+
+The nearest stop of public transportation (S-Bahn) is Rosenheimer Platz. For
+detailed travel information see separate section. Also note that the conference
+centre is located in a separate building, reachable by a short walk from the
+lobby of the hotel.
+
+WELCOME RECEPTION
+
+There will be a welcome reception on Sunday, August 16th, from 18:00 to 20:00.
+It will take place in the restaurant "Le Jardin" in the conference hotel.
+
+REGISTRATION
+
+A registration desk will be open during the reception on Sunday and also on all
+days during the conference.
+
+PRESENTATIONS
+
+We will provide a laptop with Microsoft PowerPoint and Acrobat Reader. We
+strongly advise presenters to send us their slides by Friday, August 14th,
+to allow us enough time for making a test and uploading them for the
+respective session.
+Of course you can also bring your own laptop, but we would prefer to use
+a single laptop in order to reduce the time needed to set up the 
+presentations.
+
+POSTERS
+
+For the poster session on Tuesday, August 18th, panels that can accommodate
+posters in A1 format will be available. The poster will be attached to the
+panel with pins, which will be provided by us.
+
+LUNCH BREAKS
+
+Lunch and coffee will be provided during all conference and workshop days. 
+Lunch will be served in the restaurant "Le Jardin" in the hotel.
+
+INTERNET ACCESS
+
+Free WLAN access will be provided at the conference centre from August 17th
+until 21st. The name of the network is "m3connect" (but "novotel" and "vodafone"
+should work as well). The network parameters are configured via DHCP. 
+Note that the WLAN is a shared medium, meaning that the available capacity is
+shared among all users, and each of the access points in the conference centre
+can only handle a fixed number of connections at the same time. We therefore
+kindly ask you to refrain from using any bandwidth-hungry applications, such
+as video streaming, and from downloading large files. Please also disconnect
+from the network whenever you do not need it.
+A cable-based Internet access is available in the rooms of Novotel for an
+extra fee. 
+
+PROCEEDINGS
+
+Hardcopies of the conference proceedings will be available at the registration
+desk. The LNCS number of the proceedings is 5674. Moreover, ten hardcopies of
+the Emerging Trends proceedings will be available at the registration desk.
+The Emerging Trends proceedings can also be downloaded from
+
+  http://tphols.in.tum.de/emerging-trends-TUM-I0916.pdf
+
+EXCURSION AND BANQUET
+
+On Wednesday, August 19th from 13:00 to about 00:15, there will be an excursion
+to the lake Starnberg including a boat cruise, followed by the conference banquet.
+
+COQ AND PLMMS WORKSHOPS
+
+The workshops will take place on Friday, August 21st, at the same location as
+the main conference. More information on the workshops can be found on the web
+site of the conference.
+
+TRAVEL
+
+ARRIVING BY PLANE
+
+Munich airport is located about 35km from the city centre. The airport has two
+terminals that are adjacent to each other. From the airport, you can take a taxi
+to the hotel, but it is a very expensive ride (> EUR 50).
+
+Our advice is to take the cheaper option of public transportation using the
+S-Bahn. These are local trains that depart from the central area of the
+airport every 20 mins and run from 4 o'clock in the morning until past
+midnight. Follow the "S-Bahn" sign to the trains. You have to take the
+train labelled S8 (yellow-and-black line in the map below):
+
+  http://www.munich-airport.de/en/consumer/anab/bahn/index.jsp
+
+It is not recommended to take the S1 to the city centre: it brings you there
+as well, but it takes a large detour. A plan of the whole public transportation
+network of Munich can be downloaded in PDF from
+
+  http://www.mvv-muenchen.de/web4archiv/objects/download/3/schnellbahnnetz_2009.pdf
+
+If you are staying at the conference hotel, you have to get off at Rosenheimer
+Platz (10 stops from the airport) and just follow the signs to the Novotel.
+The trip from the airport to the hotel takes about 35 mins. You can query the
+timetable and journey planner for the trip from the airport to the city centre at
+
+  http://www.mvv-muenchen.de/en/home/passengeraeinformation/airtravellers/index.html
+
+PURCHASING TRAIN TICKETS
+
+Before taking the train, you have to purchase and validate your ticket. In
+front of the entrance to the platform there is a ticket counter, which is
+staffed during working hours, and automatic ticket machines. If you use the
+machines you need to have enough coins or sufficiently small bank notes. The
+machines give change. The sales people at the ticket counter also accept credit
+cards (the sales people should be able to speak English).
+
+If you plan to travel straight to the conference hotel, you have to purchase a
+single ticket ("Einzelfahrkarte") 4 zones, valid for only one trip, price EUR 9.20
+
+If on the arrival day you plan to go somewhere else, you can also buy
+a single day ticket for the entire network ("Single-Tageskarte Gesamtnetz"),
+price EUR 10.00
+
+If you happen to travel together with up to four colleagues, you can save money
+by buying a partner day ticket for the entire network ("Partner-Tageskarte
+Gesamtnetz"), price EUR 18.00
+
+Do not forget to validate the tickets before travelling! You can validate your
+ticket by inserting it into one of the small blue machines close to the entrance
+of the platform, which print the current date and time on the ticket.
+
+ARRIVING BY TRAIN
+
+Most of the intercity trains either arrive at Hauptbahnhof or at Ostbahnhof. From
+Hauptbahnhof, you can take any S-Bahn in the direction of Ostbahnhof. If you are
+staying at the conference hotel, you have to get off at Rosenheimer Platz. If your
+train arrives at Ostbahnhof, get off there and take any S-Bahn in the direction of
+the city centre / Hauptbahnhof. Note that Rosenheimer Platz is already the next
+stop after Ostbahnhof. See above for information about ticket purchases.
