UK AVS+UNIRAS USER GROUPAnnual Conference 1999 The University of Birmingham
|
The 1999 annual conference was organised by the UK AVS+ UNIRAS User Group and was held at the University of Birmingham Conference Park from Monday 8th to Tuesday 9th November 1999. The conference is aimed at both academic and commercial AVS and UNIRAS users. Advanced Visual Systems was, as always, well represented by key management and technical personnel, so the conference provided a valuable opportunity to find out about new developments.
The conference ran from mid-morning on the 8th to mid-afternoon on the 9th and included the conference dinner in Hornton Grange. It consisted of papers with demonstrations of hardware and software in an adjoining room. The conference fee of £200 included full catering, accommodation and all conference sessions.
| The conference had exclusive use of Hornton Grange, on the University of Birmingham Conference Park. Hornton Grange was built during the early years of this century as an Edwardian style gentleman's residence which now stands in its own attractive and peaceful grounds within the Conference Park. It has its own bar and Conservatory Dining Room with 32 modern and highly specified en-suite bedrooms in the adjacent North and South wings. The Conference Park itself is located very close to the University campus. As well as offering ample free car parking it has good rail links with Birmingham International Airport and the rest of the UK. |  |
The program covered a wide range of topics on the majority of AVS products; many of the abstracts and presentations are available from the program page.
