Driving Directions and Parking

The following map shows your route.

  1. Getting the permit

Drive off highway CA-60 (I-215N if coming from San Diego) at University Ave, then follow the red route in the map below to the Information Kiosk (on West Campus Dr). To find the kiosk, search (Google) “UCR Information Kiosk - West Campus Drive”.
At the Kiosk, depending on whether you have a parking permit form another UC campus:
* If yes, show your permit and get a UCR permit. Faculty/staff who work at another UC and have a long term (quarter or annual) parking permit from that campus can get a UCR permit. * If no, you can simply mention the name of our workshop and your name and get a Red Parking Permit for Lot 13. We already paid.
  1. Parking the car

You will continue in the same direction and drive around the campus to reach the parking Lot 13. To find the parking lot, search (Google) “UCR parking Lot 13”. Please follow the signs and only park in places for Red permits.
  1. Walking to the Winston Chung Hall (WCH)

From the parking lot, you will walk to WCH in about 5 mins. The workshop will be in room number 138 that is located in the back of WCH (pointed by the finger in the map). The door of Room 138 directly opens to outside.


Submission Guidelines

Both original research and work that has been published in other venues is welcome!

Authors should submit abstracts of at most ~300 words via (this) Google form. The submission deadline is Friday, September 1st, by the end of the day.

Selected abstracts will be presented as a talk or a poster. The program committee will determine the length of the talks based on the number and content of the abstracts; and they'll provide more information when they notify you of acceptance.
