LOCATION OF CONFERENCES:

      The conferences will be held in the Monte Carlo Resort
      hotel, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA.  This is a mega hotel
      with excellent conference facilities and over 3,000 rooms.
      The hotel is minutes from the Las Vegas airport with free
      shuttles to and from the airport.  This hotel has many
      vacation and recreational attractions, including:
      waterfalls, casino, spa, pools & kiddie pools, sunning
      decks, Easy River water ride, wave pool with cascades,
      lighted tennis courts, health spa (with workout equipment,
      whirlpool, sauna, ...), arcade virtual reality game rooms,
      nightly shows, snack bars, a number of restaurants,
      shopping area, bars, ...  Many of these attractions are
      open 24 hours a day and most are suitable for families and
      children.  The negotiated hotel's room rate for conference
      attendees is very reasonable (79USD + tax) per night (no
      extra charge for double occupancy) for the duration of
      the conference.

      The hotel is within walking distance from most other
      Las Vegas attractions (major shopping areas, recreational
      destinations, fine dining and night clubs, free street
      shows, ...).
      For the benefit of our international colleagues: the
      state of Nevada neighbors with the states of California,
      Oregon, Idaho, Utah, and Arizona.  Las Vegas is only a
      few driving hours away from other major cities, including:
      Los Angeles, San Diego, Phoenix, Grand Canyon, ...
