We've had a couple of meetings in San Diego before. I expect it is at the Supercomputing center, which is on the UCSD campus in La Jolla. I don't know what the recommended hotel is, but anything is La Jolla or Del Mar is close.

The meeting usually start early the first day (15th in this case), so you should probably plan to arrive the night before, and then the meeting ends just before lunch on the second day, at which point we all go out for a Very Fine Lunch.

p.s. no I'm not buying for everyone :-)

You have a choice of various hotels in La Jolla and Torrey Pines. Someone from SDSC should be able to post the details of several Sheratons, Marriotts, etc in the vicinity. You will need a car to get back and forth from hotel to restaurant to SDSC. For anyone who likes something off the beaten path, there is an old but very nice hotel in Del Mar about 15 minutes drive up the coast from UCSD called the Hotel L'Auberge. Not only is the hotel different from a chain hotel, it is located right in Del Mar, so if you have a minute you can actually walk around old Del Mar. There is a Starbuck's across the street and a great bookstore down the block. The L'Auberge was built for folks coming to the Del Mar racetrack from Los Angeles. They used to come by train and walk up the hill to the hotel. The train still runs, but doesn't stop at Del Mar. Couple of great restaurants, Jakes and Poseidon, down on the beach by the train station. Call 619.259.1515. --Kent
