ACA'99 Registration Fee & Lodging

Remarks

Conference place: Euroforum - El Escorial.

This is the conference headquarters. All parallel sessions will take place in the same building. So will coffee breaks, lunches and dinners. Rooms are booked at the same building too.

  1. El Escorial is a small place near Madrid. Euroforum is a university owned organization specializing in organizing conferences, summer postgraduate courses and courses for private companies. Euroforum includes high-standard dorms, rooms, restaurant and other facilities (sauna, gymnasium...). A limited number of invitations to enter a golf club (with an 18 holes golf- course, tennis, swimming-pool...) at member prices are also available.

    Although the registration is high, the total for registration plus lodging is reasonable: for example, a non-IMACS member registered early, staying 3 nights (with the dinner before the first night and all three meals of the following 3 days included - except the dinner of the last day) will pay a total of 548 US$ (78354 ptas).

    The registration had to be raised w.r.t. previous years because of the way payments have to be done in this place: we have to pay to Euroforum more than two thirds of the money obtained from the registration. On the other hand, lodging is very cheap in this place, as can be seen below.

  2. Calculations are approximate (with the current US$/Spanish exchange rate of January 1999: 1 US$ = 143 ptas). As payments to Euroforum must be made in Spanish pesetas, the translations to US$ below are not a commitment for us, and are included only in order to orient the conversion to US$. Nevertheless, only in case of a substantial change in the US$/Spanish exchange rate would they be either raised or lowered.
  3. Depending on the amount of money obtained from grants, as many attendees as possible will be helped. Grants will be approved as money is obtained from sponsors. Initially they will cover registration and lodging expenses, but could also cover travel expenses in special cases. Priority will be given to those with economical problems (specially if involved somehow in the organization of the conference): students, scholars and young researchers, and those related to the Universidad Complutense de Madrid.
