==CONFERENCE LOCATION==

The conference will be held in the picturesque town of Zürich. Zürich is
known
as the "Big little city".  It has an atmosphere of a quaint town, and
yet
offers many attractions for people to visit. Take a walking tour of the
city
or just enjoy an afternoon by the Zürich lake. Zürich's location is also
ideal
for touring central Switzerland. Pilatus, which offers a 360 degree
panorama at
2132 meters above sea level is just a short train ride away.

surrounding places,
