Genetic Programming 1996 Conference (GP-96) Time Schedule
(Version 1.3)
July 28 - 31 (Sunday - Wednesday), 1996
At Fairchild Auditorium and other campus locations at Stanford University
In cooperation with the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), SIGART
of the ACM, the IEEE Neural Network Council, and the American Association
for Artificial Intelligence (AAAI)
GP-96 conference events are centered around Fairchild Auditorium at Stanford
University. Fairchild Auditorium is a one-story building located on Campus
Drive (across a parking lot). Fairchild Auditorium is located adjacent to
the Stanford Medical Center and the Beckman Center Building (a beige-colored
four-story building with some round windows).
From Governor's Corner (site of University housing at Campus Drive and Santa
Teresa), Fairchild Auditorium is about a half mile along Campus Drive (clockwise).
From the Holiday Inn at El Camino Real avenue and University Avenue in Palo
Alto, Fairchild Auditorium is about a half mile away and can be reached
by entering the Stanford campus at its main entrance on University Avenue
(whose name changes to Palm Drive as you enter the campus), turning right
on Campus Drive and proceeding along Campus Drive (counterclockwise). There
is a free red bus with several routes traversing the Stanford campus as
well as the downtown Palo Alto train station (which is across the street
from the Holiday Inn on El Camino Real avenue in Palo Alto).
Conference registration, coffee breaks, and the Monday evening session for
posters and late-breaking papers are in the lobby of Fairchild Auditorium.
All the plenary sessions, some tutorials, and some break-out sessions are
also in Fairchild Auditorium. Various break-out sessions and tutorials are
about 150 feet away in the nearby Stanford Medical Center on the ground
floor in Rooms M-104, M-106, M-108, and M-112. The Sunday evening wine and
cheese reception is at the Elliott Program Center located near Governor's
Corner on Campus Drive and Santa Teresa Street overlooking Lake Lagunita.
The Monday night reception is at the Faculty Club which is located adjacent
to the Tresidder Student Union. There is a canteen with both indoor tables
and an outdoor courtyard with tables in the basement of the adjacent Beckman
Building and there is another canteen in the nearby Medical Center building
with indoor and outdoor tables (near M-104, M-106, M-108, and M-112).
Each conference attendee will receive a copy of the conference proceedings
book (unless this book was shipped to them earlier), the late-breaking papers
book, up to 5 tutorial books, a T-shirt, and badge (which provides admission
to conference sessions, the Sunday evening wine and cheese reception, the
Monday evening reception, and box lunches).
