PAGE 2MARCH 2015

ABSTRACTS:
The final abstract deadline is 15 March. The conveners have been hard at work organizing thesessions and have begun to send out acceptances already; this process will be completed shortly,
but if you have questions you may contact the conveners directly. A full list and contact
information appears on the main webpage.
HOTEL INFORMATION:
The suggested conference hotel is the Holiday Inn Dallas Central—Park Cities. Theconference rate is $95/night+tax, and includes breakfast and Wi-Fi. We suggest you reserve
your room sooner rather than later as other hotels in the area are more expensive.
SHARED ROOM OPTION: We will organize shared rooms with other DIS participants; thehard deadline is 21 March as we must provide the information to the hotel in advance.
TRAVEL INFORMATION:AIRPORTS: Dallas is served by two major airports. Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) is the large
international airport. Dallas Love Field (DAL) is the smaller airport. SMU is easily accessible
from both these airports by bus, train, and taxi. Note that Southwest Airlines now flies directfrom Dallas to many major US cities at reasonable fares1.
TRANSPORTATION: Detailed travel information will be posted on the website as we getcloser. The Holiday Inn Hotel is accessible from both airports by public transport (as well as
multiple shuttle services), and the meeting venue is walking distance from the hotel. Rental cars
are NOT necessary and probably not useful (parking on campus is limited).
