Program Announcement: A Message from the Chairs

Thu, 28 Apr 2011 16:59:00 -0400

Dear Phononics 2011 participants,

We are glad to announce that the final Phononics 2011 conference schedule is now available online. Please click on the “Conference Program” tab in the left side menu to download a copy. Please review your information and alert us to any unintended mistakes should you notice any. Your feedback is greatly appreciated.

We would like to also draw your attention to the rapidly approaching the hotel reservation deadline. Our negotiated discounted lodging rate will expire on May 6th.

All participants who have not reserved their hotel rooms by May 6th will have to do so independently. We would also like to draw your attention to the fact that the conference is held on a U.S. Memorial Day National holiday weekend! Thus hotel rooms are in high demand and rapidly running out.

Here is what you need to do:

1. If you have registered for the conference but have NOT made hotel reservation, please select “Hotel Reservation” from the left side menu, login to the webpage and follow the instructions.

2. If you have NOT yet registered for the conference, you can reserve your hotel room and pay your registration fees at the same time. Simply select “Registration” from the left side menu, login to the webpage and follow the instructions.

We would also like to draw your attention to the fact that all conference participants are required to register for the conference regardless of their contribution type. As this is the only way for us to confirm your attendance and participation.

Best regards, and see you soon in Phononics 2011.

Yours sincerely,
Ihab El-Kady
Mahmoud I. Hussein

Venue Change: A message from the Chairs

Thu, 03 Mar 2011 09:57:39 -0500

Dear Conference Participants,

We would like to thank you for contributing to the survey on the conference location. Upon analyzing the responses to the four options that were provided in the survey, we found that 67% of all survey participants will be able to attend the conference if held in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt while 89% of all survey participants will be able to attend the conference if held in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Consequently, and in order to minimize the number of people who will not be able to attend the conference due to the current situation, we have decided to move the conference location to Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA. If you will not be able to attend the conference due to this venue change, please accept our sincere apologies. It has been a very difficult decision for us because we are so keen that all the invited speakers and contributing authors are able to attend the conference. Furthermore, we have been working with the local organizing committee for several months and almost all of the arrangements in Sharm El-Sheikh were already in place when the political events in Egypt started on January 25th.

Please note that the conference date will not be changed. It will start on May 29, 2011 and end on June 2, 2011, as originally planned. However, due to the change of location we have made alterations to the following important dates:

Notification of abstract acceptance: March 15, 2011
Early bird registration deadline: April 1, 2011

The conference website will be updated shortly to reflect these location and deadline changes.
Website of Phononics 2011 conference: phononics2011.phononics.org

We look forward to seeing you in at the conference in Santa Fe on May 29th. In the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

Yours sincerely,

Ihab El-Kady
Mahmoud I. Hussein
