The WR-QIST workshop will be held at the University of York (Campus East). As shown in the 'Programme' tab, we will be using rooms within the Piazza Building, as well as the buildings of the Institute for Safe Autonomy (ISA) and the Department of Computer Science (CS). On the map below, we indicate the locations of these buildings on the east campus. We also show the locations of the nearest bus stops and car parks. Note that the CS Building is named the Ian Wand Building.
The atrium (ISA/003) will be used for lunch and the poster session.
Lab tours will also take place in the ISA Building.
A lecture theatre (CSE/082X) in the pod of the CS Building will be used for most activities in the afternoon sessions.
Seminar room 106 (PZA/106) will be used for registration and coffee breaks.
A tiered lecture theatre (PZA/103) will be used for the talk sessions.
Participants should make their own arrangements regarding travel.
