[ACT-R-users] ACT-R workshop information

[Niels Taatgen]

The workshop is coming up, so here is some additional information:

Presentations:
We scheduled 20 minutes per talk, which includes question time and  
changing speakers.

Schedule:
The updated schedule can be found on the website:
http://act-r.psy.cmu.edu/workshops/workshop-2006/WSSchedule.html
The differences with the previous version are small, but check it  
nevertheless.

How to get to CMU:
Assuming you come by airplane, the easiest way to get to CMU is with  
the 28X "Airport Flyer" bus ($2.25, exact change required). It runs  
every 20 or 30 minutes from the airport (just outside the baggage  
claim on the same side as the taxis and the parking shuttles) via  
downtown to CMU. Although there are more expensive shuttle services,  
none of them except a taxi (which will cost you at least $40) will  
bring you all the way to campus. The last stop of the bus will drop  
you off on Forbes avenue, just across building 13 on the map I  
include as a pdf-file. The bus runs until around midnight. If you  
stay at the Holiday Inn you have to get off slightly earlier:  
probably the best stop is at Forbes avenue across Schenley Drive  
(across the street from the Pitt's Cathedral of Learning).

Parking:
If you drive into Pittsburgh you should arrange for parking in  
advance: call 412 268 1125. They will probably put you in the East  
campus parking garage (P5).

Checking into your rooms:
The summer housing office is in Donner hall, which is building number  
62 (D8) on the map. Go there to pick up the key for your room (they  
will give you directions to the building) and pay for it. They will  
want you to pay for the first two days on arrival, but you can also  
settle the full amount right away.

I look forward to you all next week,

Niels Taatgen
