papers they would like to present as 'contributed papers', which will be
considered by the Scientific Committee. The deadline for receipt of
abstracts is 31st March 2009. At the end of January and the end of
February the Scientific Committee will assess abstracts submitted by those
dates and where appropriate give an early decision on such abstracts.
THE BOOKING FORM IS NOW AVAILABLE (SEE BELOW). Please send the completed
form to Christine Cockett (L&M Conference Secretary) via email
(cac7@york.acuk) as soon as possible so that local organisers can make the
necessary reservations.
****************************************************************************
ACCOMMODATION in York is in great demand in summer, so early registration
and reservation of accommodation is advised. The conference will be able
to offer up to 70 rooms on campus or nearby at preferential rates, see
below. The deadline for making firm bookings of University Campus
accommodation is 31st January. Bookings after this deadline cannot be
guaranteed although the conference organisers will probably be able to
accommodate any requests after this date up to 30th April. After this
delegates may have to find their own accommodation.
LUNCH & DINNER will be available for purchase at various locations on
campus, or in the City of York (about 30 minutes walk or 15 minutes by
frequent bus).
TRAVEL The local airports regularly used by visitors are Manchester,
Leeds/Bradford and various airports in London. Information on getting to
York from the local airports and from York to the University is available
here (http://maths.york.ac.uk/www/VisitorInfo). The Heslington campus
takes 10 minutes to walk from one side to the other. A map of the campus
is available here (http://www.york.ac.uk/np/maps/hes.htm).
EXCURSION Wednesday afternoon will be the traditional half-day break.
There is much to do and see in the city of York. For those wishing to go
further afield there is the possibility of either a trip to the East
Yorkshire Coast with a walk around Flamborough Head (about 40 miles
distant) and fish and chip supper in Bridlington, or a visit to the
stately home Castle Howard (http://www.castlehoward.co.uk about 15 miles
distant, location of the movie Brideshead Revisited).
It would be helpful to have expressions of interest concerning these
excursions, so that we can make provisional arrangements. Costs will be
available nearer the time, and we will ask participants to make firm
decisions on arrival in York on 2nd August.
REGISTRATION FEE is 80 GBP (50 GBP for students with certification)
payable by 31 March 2009. After this date the registration fee will
increase.
STUDENTS In addition to the reduced registration fee, support for the
attendance of UK based students has been made available by the LMS.
Eligible students should apply to the Conference Secretary.
