Registration

There will be a reception on Sunday, August 6, 2000 from 4-6 PM in the Phillips Hall Lounge, 2nd floor. Registration materials will be available at the reception for those arriving on Sunday.

On Monday, August 7, registration will take place in 101 Phillips Hall on the Engineering Quad 7:30 a.m. – 12 noon . Those that have opted for on-campus housing can check in at the Conference Services desk located in 206 Robert Purcell Community Center. This desk is open daily 8:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m. The registration fee includes conference proceedings, refreshment breaks and the barbeque on Tuesday, August 8, 6-8 PM.

Campus Parking

Each attendee wih a car must purchase a transportation permit at the cost of $5.00. This allows participants use of a parking permit for the CC lot that is located on North Campus. It also allows people to use the campus shuttle. The CC lot is located directly across the street from the Townhouse apartments. For those participants staying at the University Best Western, you may purchase a transportation permit at registration or you can use the hotel shuttle to and from campus. There is no parking near Phillips Hall where the meetings will take place.

Accommodations

There are 29 Townhouse apartments available and will be assigned on a first come, first served basis (see the conference registration form for rates (IEEE web site http://www.iiiv.cornell.edu/cc00/). Rooms have been reserved at the University Best Western to ensure sufficient housing for meeting attendees. Please specify that you are attending the 2000/IEEE Cornell Conference when you are making your reservations. These rooms will be held until July 17, 2000. All conferees must make their own room arrangements.

University Best Western - (607) 272-6100 - Deadline: July 17, 2000

Please refer to the conference registration form for the hotel rates.

(See the IEEE web site http://www.iiiv.cornell.edu/cc00/).

Barbeque – Tuesday, August 8, 6—8 PM

The registration fee includes a ticket to the conference BBQ, which will be held at Taughannock Falls State Park, Central Pavilion, on Tuesday 6-8 PM, August 8. Bus transportation from the Cornell Campus and the University Best Western will be provided.

Confirmation

When we receive your completed registration form and full payment for the conference, we will send you a confirmation letter and will include more detailed driving directions and a Cornell University campus map.

Transportation

Ithaca is served by US Air, whose terminal is located about three miles from the Cornell University Campus. You may either rent a vehicle at the airport terminal or simply take the airport shuttle to campus. Several state highways lead to the city and Ithaca is within fifty miles of the New York State Thruway.

Recreation

Ithaca is a major education community with a population of approximately 30,000 citizens. It lies at the southern tip of Cayuga Lake in the Finger Lakes Region of upstate New York. The lake, forty miles long and three miles across at its widest point, is ideal for all kinds of water sports, including swimming, boating, water skiing and fishing. Three beautiful state parks are only a few minutes drive from the city: Buttermilk Falls; Robert H. Treman; and Taughannock Falls, which contains the highest waterfall east of the Rocky Mountains. Within an hour's drive of Cornell are the wineries at Hammondsport, the cascades at Watkins Glen, and the Corning Glass Center.
