			   CONFERENCE VENUE
			   ================

LICS'98 and its affiliated workshops will take place at the Indiana
University Conference Center in Indianapolis, which combines
state-of-the-art academic meeting facilities with a four star hotel
and various food services.  The Center is located on the Indianapolis
Campus of Indiana University, which includes the university's medical
school.

Indianapolis is a city of about one million inhabitants, located about
250 km south of Chicago.  The Indianapolis downtown area, about one
mile from the conference center, offers a large selection of
restaurants, cultural and entertainment establishments, and modern
up-scale shopping.  It has been a thriving convention location for
over a decade, and is relatively clean and safe.  Other attractions in
and near the city include two art museums of interest, a large
children's museum, a large zoo, a historic park, and the Indy500 race
tracks.

Additional information and relevant links can be found on the
conference web site, http://lics98.cs.indiana.edu.

			  TRAVEL INFORMATION
			  ==================

BY AIR

Frequent direct flights to Indianapolis are available from most hubs
and gateways in the US.  The conference site is a 20 minute drive from
the airport.  Cab fare from the airport is around $24.

International travelers would normally use a connection in one of the
major US airgates, such as Chicago for United/Lufthansa and
American/British airline alliances as well as others, Detroit for
Northwest/KLM, New York's JFK airport for TWA and many international
carriers, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh for US Airways, New York's
Newark for Continental, and Atlanta or Cincinnati for Delta.  Air
connections from Chicago are particularly frequent, on United (full
jet service) and American (turbojet).  The current lowest fare is $105
for a round trip; however, international airfares can often be
augmented with a connection for a small increment.

Reduced air fares will be offered to LICS participants by Continental
Airlines, TWA, and US Airways.

Continental Airlines offers a discount of 8% on restricted airfare and

except for non-stop flights to and from St. Louis, for which the
discounts are 10% and 5%, respectively. To make reservations in North
America call 800-325.4933, and mention Agreement Number V16412.  You

the agreement number above.  (NOTE: The TWA reservation system might

unrestricted air fares.  These discounts apply systemwide, including
Europe. In North America call 800-334-8644, and mention Gold File
