To ensure publication of papers, author payments must reach us no later than 30 July 2010.

Registrations without accommodation can still be made after this date, provided payment is received by credit/debit card at the time of booking.

Participants arriving at the conference without having pre-registered are welcome subject to availability. Payment will be required on arrival, and will be subject to a late registration surcharge of £100 on the relevant fee.

Hotel Accommodation: If you require accommodation, please note that registration must be completed and paid not later than 30 July 2010. It may be possible to book accommodation after that date, but we are not able to guarantee this.

Changes and Amendments: If you are booking accommodation and would like to increase your stay for additional nights we will do our best to help you. We are happy to do this as part of your registration provided you tell us by email at the time of booking. Before finally submitting your registration, please check your order carefully as changes made to bookings after an invoice has been raised will be subject to an administration charge of £25 per change made. If you do notice that you have made a mistake please notify us by email so that we can help you before raising your invoice. All registration queries should be sent to Charl Walters

Cancellations: Please refer to cancellation terms and conditions.

Earlybird condition: In order to obtain the Earlybird rate, we must be in receipt of your full conference registration fee by the published Earlybird date. Although we endeavor to notify paper acceptance before this date, external factors may prevent this. In the event of an author subsequently failing to have a paper accepted for the conference, a refund can be made (cancellation charges apply).

Note to Authors: In order to have your paper published in the conference proceedings the final date for receipt of authors’ payment is 30 July 2010. Due to the large number of papers expected for this conference, the committee only allows an author to present one paper. Therefore if multiple papers are accepted for presentation different co-authors need to present each paper.

Visa Applications: Visitors to Italy must have a valid passport and may require a visa. For more information, please visit our Visa Information page. This website may be helpful or contact your local Portuguese Embassy. Please note we are not able to arrange visas.
