SasView? Code Camp-II


Where

Code Camp-II will be held at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL), UK, home to ISIS & the Diamond Light Source.


When

The Camp will formally run from the morning of Monday 31 March until lunchtime on Sunday 6 April 2014 but, by prior arrangement, participants are welcome to ask to stay on into the following week.

It is planned that there will be a 'meet-and-greet' over dinner on the evening of Sunday 30 March.


Getting to/from RAL

The nearest international airport is London Heathrow (LHR). Journey time by car or taxi (latter is ~£120 one way) is approximately 50 min.

The nearest railway station is Didcot Parkway (DID) on the mainline from London Paddington (PAD), about 15 min from Reading (RDG). Journey time to Didcot from Paddington is approximately 45 min. For service information see the National Rail website.

Paddington is connected to Heathrow by the Heathrow Express rail service.


Purpose of the Code Camp

  • To learn about the SasView? development environment
  • To progress and complete tickets in an encouraging and nurturing expert environment
  • To shape the future development of SasView?


Local Organiser

Dr Stephen King


Cost

There is no registration fee for the Camp. Participants will be responsible for their own travel, accommodation, and subsistence costs.


Accommodation

There is only limited accommodation in the immediate vicinity of RAL and so if participants do not wish to commute each day they are strongly encouraged to use the RAL Visitor Guesthouse, 'Ridgeway House'.

PLEASE NOTE: As of December 3 2013, ISIS will now be in-cycle during the Camp. This means that once experiment scheduling takes place (probably from mid-January 2014) there will be fewer rooms available in Ridgeway House. Prospective participants are therefore strongly advised to book accommodation at Ridgeway House as soon as is practical.
