I rode from S.D. to Pasadena and back about 7 years ago....Seems
that we took PCH most of the way up until the San Gabriel River.
I liked going through Camp Pendelton best - from the San Onofre
campground to the middle of Camp Pendelton we had old hwy. 101
all to ourselves as a bike path - then you'll come to that road
in the middle of Camp Pendleton and you can go on the streets through
the camp all the way to oceanside, and pick up the pch again, to
La Jolla (take the road through Torrey Pines state park instead of
old 101 up the hill there.). I hope this info isn't out of date.

Hello,

I was wondering if there's anyone out there who had traveled frequent 
enough between LA and San Francisco to be able to recommend and give
me some information regarding the following:

	1. Do you know the price of the Grey Hound bus ticket to
travel from LA to SF? (It should be same for SF to LA, right ?)

	2. How many hours will it take by bus to travel between
LA and SF?

	3. Grey Hound used to have an offer for students to buy ticket of 
$100 and can travel within 30 days with no limit on distance. Have you 
ever heard about that at present?

	4. How much does it cost to go on Amtrak between the 2 cities?

	5. Do you have any idea on accommodations in LA? (Not too
expensive but safe enough to stay.)  

I would like to thank you in advance for all your responses.  I would
appreciate any lead on the info I'm looking for.   Please email to
my address:  wila@seas.ucla.edu      I don't read the netnews that much.

-Wila

I'm not going to comment on the "rocking the van" part, since
I don't want to be liable for anything you do. :-)

As far as city lights, I've seen the valley lights from Mulholland
and the northern end.  I've seen the LA lights from the hills of
Hollywood.  (Top of Hobart, off of Los Feliz near Griffith Park used
to be great until they filled it in with million dollar homes.)

However, the best view of the city lights is from the Palos Verdes
hill.  It's a well kept secret ... and I almost want to keep it
that way, but on the account that you've been married for 8 
years I will share the information.

110 South (for most people) to Anaheim exit.
West on Anaheim
Left onto Palos Verdes Dr North
Left onto Palos Verdes Dr East
Right onto Bronco
Go a little ways past Cayuse and there is some vacant
space on the right side.

I advise you check a map before you leave.

From there, you can see ...
   To the left ... the beaches from Torrance to Santa Monica
   Ahead of you ... LA
   To the right ... Long Beach and San Pedro harbors

It's incredible.  Best time to go is after it rains.

My understanding is that the glass bottle machines are supposed to take
anything that says "CA REDEMPTION VALUE" (CRV) on it and has a readable
UPC code.  There seem to be very few places that take non-CRV glass;
try looking up "recycling" in the yellow pages.

Swami Chinmayananda
 World-renowned authority on the scriptures of India, especially the
Bhagavad Gita and the Upanishads, Swami Chinmayananda is also a brilliant
speaker who knows how to make the ancient teachings come alive in the
modern age.

Vedanta
 Happiness, says Vedanta, does not lie outside you but within you. Through
rational analysis, Vedanta lifts the veil of ignorance to reveal the very
source of all happiness and fulfillment -- yourself. An understanding of
Vedanta leads you to appreciate the teachings of all the major religions 
of the world.

Topics
 Swami Chinmayananda addresses the following kinds of questions in his
talks:
 - Why God?
 - What is the Macrocosmic family?
 - Why Meditate?
 - What is the Secret of Success?
 - How do we reduce stress in our lives?

|> 	4. How much does it cost to go on Amtrak between the 2 cities?

The low Amtrak fare is $82 for a LA - San Francisco round-trip.  Certain
Holiday peak-travel days have higher fares.

From San Francisco, you have 2 choices:  

1. The Coast Starlight.  This train uses Amtrak's top-'o-the-line
   "Superliner" equipment (cars).  It has a full dining car, snack
   bar and observation car.  It travels on the Southern Pacific's
   scenic "Coast Route" via San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara.
   This is a *very* popular train and requires reservations.  The
   sooner you call and make a reservation the better chance you'll
   have of getting a seat at the lowest available fare.  On Amtrak,
   making a reservation is risk-free since they give you a date
   that you must either buy the ticket by or the reservation expires.
   The nice thing about this is it encourages/allows you to make
   a reservation early to lock-in a low fare...  There is one
   Coast Starlight train per day per direction.

2. The San Joaquin.  This train runs from Oakland to Bakersfield.
   There is a special dedicated Amtrak bus that connects Los Angeles
   Union Passenger Terminal (the downtown LA train station) with
   Bakersfield.  Doing the bus/train thing can be somewhat faster
   than taking the Coast Starlight since the San Joaquin's go 79mph
   though much of the Central Valley.  There are 4 San Joaquin
   trains per day per direction.

In either case, Amtrak's San Francisco station is at the TransBay
Bus terminal on Mission St. (one block south of Market St. in the
financial district).  Amtrak uses buses to connect the San Francisco
terminal and San Francisco CalTrain station with the Oakland train
station.  Also, there is a direct, convenient connection between
BART and Amtrak at the Richmond BART/Amtrak station.  Also, the
Coast Starlight makes direct connections with CalTrain in San Jose.

       PHIDEO: High Level Synthesis for High-Throughput DSP Applications}

                            Jef van Meerbergen
                        Philips Research Laboratories
                             The Netherlands

                                Abstract     



An approach to high-level synthesis for high-throughput DSP
applications will be discussed.  Such applications are typically found
in real-time video systems such as HDTV.  The method is capable of
dealing with hierarchical flow graphs containing loops with manifest
boundaries and linear index expressions.  The algorithm is based on
the model of periodic operations which allows optimizations across
loopboundaries.  Processing units and storage units are minimized
simultaneously.  The algorithm is implemented in the PHIDEO system.
The presentation will give an overview of the global system including
processing unit synthesis, scheduling, memory synthesis and address
generation.  Examples will be shown using a first prototype of the
system which is currently operational at the Philips Research Laboratories.

WHAT WE HAVE WE LEARNED ABOUT MASSIVELY PARALLEL PROCESSING
W. Daniel Hillis
Chief Scientist
Thinking Machines Corporation

ABSTRACT 
In the early 1980's massively parallel computing was generally
regarded as a crazy idea.  Now massively parallel computers are
clearly the most powerful machines in the world for large-scale
applications in science, commerce, and industry.  Most large
computer companies have major projects in this area and it is
generally regarded as the future of supercomputing.  Why did
massively parallel computers turn out to be more widely
applicable than generally expected?  What have we learned of
hardware and software of parallel computing that accounts for
this change?  I will discuss some of the confusions, insights,
and surprises that have occurred.

CONCURRENT ENGINEERING
John T. Boardman
Marconi Professor of Systems Engineering
University of Portsmouth, UK

ABSTRACT 
The major tennet of this lecture is that a concurrent engineering 
framework (CEF) can most effectively be portrayed using a systems 
diagram methodology.  This would provide the means of describing 
interactions between processes, and would further enable engineers, 
managers and corporate strategists to understand quickly and simply 
the rationale for concurrency in any given project.

 The Interaction of Logical and Temporal Aspects of Circuit Behavior:
Issues in Analysis and Synthesis

                    Professor Sharad Malik
                     Princeton University

                           Abstract

 Static timing analysis is the most common approach to analyzing the
temporal behavior of combinational logic circuits. This is fast but
potentially inaccurate since it does not take into account the
functionality of the circuit components. It returns the length of the
longest path in the circuit, even though this path may never be
exercised in the actual operation of the circuit. Such paths are said
to be false. False path analysis (or functional timing analysis) has
seen a lot of work in recent years. I will present techniques for
functional timing analysis under a variety of assumptions for
the electrical behavior as well as component delays in the circuit.
Finally I will show how these results can be used in the synthesis
of high performance circuits.
