Participants arriving at the Kiel central station by train or by bus
may take bus route 22 which departs in front of the station. The bus
runs every 30 minutes at ten past and twenty to the hour. Get off the
bus at the station "Universitaet" in the Olshausenstrasse. You will
find the Auditorium Maximum right across the street from the bus
station.
MEALS
Besides several budget-priced restaurants in the vicinity of the
campus area there will be the opportunity to purchase guest-tickets
for meals in the University cafeteria at the Conference office.
P R E L I M I N A R Y A G E N D A
The Conference consists of keynote lectures and parallel sessions.
Additionally, round-table sessions each of which is opened by an
