We have booked double rooms for individual use and breakfast is included. Theoretically, you can enter the hotel from 2pm on, but they have told us that you can leave your bagagge before and if the room is ready you can enter sooner. The address is Avinguda Bogatell 64-68. To get to the UPF from there you just have to walk 5 minutes. Look at the map below: The registration table is located in the entrance of Ramon Turró Building (see next page for a map of the campus). There, one of the organisers will give you a copy of this booklet, a map of the city, a map of the UPF campus and more useful information for your stay (including a voucher to have lunch on Friday at Roger de Llúria café). Regarding the use of computers, you are free to bring with you your own laptop (Wi-Fi connection) or to use the University computers (in the library). In both cases, you need the following username (u54881) and password (cpis2010). If you are using a laptop, first you have to select UPF in the list of available networks, and then open the browser. Then it asks you to enter the provided username and password. Attention: it’s necessary to turn off pop-up blockers. CIUTADELLA CAMPUS UPF has three main campuses: Ciutadella, Poblenou and Mar. All the activities of the Graduate Conference will take place in Ciutadella Campus. Here you have a map: The GREEN building is Ramon Turró Building. It’s where the registration, the opening and the closing workshops (room 007) and the panels will take place. It has a number “13” on its façade which makes it easily identifiable. The BLUE building is Jaume I. It’s where the welcome cocktail will take place (in front of the Auditorium, in the basement of the building). Its central yard is the meeting point, from where the visit to the Parliament group on Thursday afternoon will depart. The YELLOW building is Roger de Llúria. You can find here the cafeteria where the lunch on Friday is planned. The lunch on Saturday will take place in its main hall. VISIT TO THE CATALAN PARLIAMENT The Catalan Parliament is located in the Palau del Parlament (Parliamentary Palace) building, the former arsenal of the Ciutadella Fort. It is in the Ciutadella Park, next to University Pompeu Fabra. The visit will take place on the afternoon of March 18 at 18.30h after the welcome cocktail. If you want to learn more about the Catalan Parliament before the visit, check this link: http://www.parlament.cat/web/parlament The meeting point for those attending the visit is the central yard of Jaume I Building, just above the location of the welcome cocktail. Please be there at 18.00h in order to walk together to the Parliament. In case you miss the group, here you have a map to get there on your own: CONFERENCE DINNER The conference dinner will take place on Friday 19th, at 8.30pm, at Restaurant La Lluna, located in the centre of the city, in the Barri Gòtic (Gothic Quarter). We have reserved the restaurant just for us and the food is excellent, so don’t miss it! To get to the restaurant we advise you to go to Plaça Catalunya. From there, just walk down the Ramblas and turn left at Carrer de Santa Anna. On the right side of the street, at number 20, you will find the restaurant enclosed in a dead end alley called Carreró Sant Bonaventura. See the map below: Note for vegetarian people: as there is a set menu that includes meat, we have already told the restaurant that some of the people attending the dinner is vegetarian and they will have some delicious and meat free dishes ready. Just tell them once sitting so they know where to serve them. INSTRUCTIONS TO PANEL CHAIRS As in previous experiences, each participant at the Graduate Network Conference has a double function. On the one hand, he or she might present the principal argument, research questions and results—if any— of the paper submitted to the Conference. On the other hand, the participant has to play also as discussant of one of the papers presented by someone else in the same panel. Furthermore, all participants are expected to make some comments on the papers discussed in each session of the panel. To facilitate this exercise, the principal role of the Panel Chair(s) is to conduct the discussion and comments among the participants in each session. It is also solicited to the Panel Chair(s) to make interventions highlighting the advantages and pitfalls not only of the paper but also of the discussion between participants. In order to assure the most fruitful benefit from the Conference, each presentation should follow this recommended structure: TIME 15 – 20 minutes (max.) 10 minutes 5 minutes 40 minutes (approx.) TASK Oral exposition of the paper by Presenter Comments by Discussant Reply by Presenter Discussion (questions and answers) among participants of the panel and Chairs Coffee breaks Coffee, milk and other beverages, along with some pastries, will be served during the development of the panel sessions in classroom 13.003 (in the same building – Ramón Turró) in case you want to eat and drink something while making a pause between presentations. On Friday it will be served from 10.30am to 11am and from 5pm to 5.30pm. On Saturday it will be served from 10.30am to 11am.

Its address is: http://www.tmb.cat/en_US/home.jsp The most suitable travelcard for you is T-10, a ten-journey ticket that costs 7,85 euros. It’s an integrated tarif system that allows you to use all means of transport in Zone 1 during 1,15h (even the train from and to the airport). Aeroport del Prat - Barcelona If you are arriving at Aeroport del Prat (16km south of Barcelona) you can get a taxi, a bus or the train. Usual taxi fares are 25-30 euros per journey, and it may increase a bit if you get the taxi after 10pm, as they have special fares for nights and weekends. It’s a good option if you are sharing. If you rather get the bus, the company is called Aerobús (1 or 2 depending on the terminal you are arriving to). They have frequent buses, every 8-10 minutes, and the cost is around 4,25 euros a single ticket and 7,30 euros a return ticket if you are departing from terminal 2. From terminal 1 the price may increase a bit. It’s more frequent, comfortable and reliable than the train. You should get down at the last stop (Plaça Catalunya) and from there get the tube to Marina station (Line 1). There, you can walk to the hotel (300m). When going to the airport, the bus departs from Plaça Catalunya too. If you want to get the train (the company is Renfe), the journey should last around 30 minutes. They depart every 30 minutes from the aiport or so and you have to get down at Clot-Aragó station. From there you can get the tube to Marina station (two stops) and from there walk to the hotel (300m). Check the train schedules in the following address: http://www.castelldefels.com/aeroport/ingl/accesos_aeropuerto_tren4010.htm#airpo rttobcn2 Aeroport de Girona – Barcelona If you are arriving at Aeroport de Girona (92km north of Barcelona) you need to travel by coach to Barcelona. The company name is Barcelona Bus and they have a desk in the hall of the airport where you can buy the tickets (12 euros a single ticket, 21 euros return). There are frequent buses, find in following pages the schedules from an to the aiport. The bus will leave you at Barcelona Estació del Nord (c/ Ali Bei, 80), from where we recommend you to get the tube to Marina station (Line 1) and walk to the hotel (300m).
