Some more informations: 

a) There are several ways to reach CHUBU UNIVERSITY from JR NAGOYA 
STATION. The nearest railway station to the university is KOZOJI(高蔵寺) (*)
on JR CHUO Line (中央線). From there you can either walk or take 
a taxi or ride a bus to get to the university. By taxi it costs 
approximately 1500 yen. It is approx. 300 yen by bus. 
There are only few bus connections from KOZOJI to the university. 
On Saturday and Sunday the buses from Kozoji-Kita (高蔵寺北) to 
Chubu Daigaku Mae （中部大学前）start at 
    8:00*, 8:10, 8:32*, 8:40, 8:50*, 9:11*, 9:30, 10:05, 11:05, 12:13, 
    12:52, 13:20, 14:31, 14:47, 15:47, 16:37, 17:20, 18:02
        *: only on Saturday
It takes about 9 min. from Kozoji to the university by bus. 

The building No.9 （9号館）where the conference is going to be 
held, is the first huge building --- a building which reminds an 
East-European building built during the communist time --- when you 
enter the main enterance of the university and walk straight ahead. 
The lecture hall is on the groundfloor of the building. 
The entrance is at the left side of the road where the road goes 
through the space under this building.

(*) As far as only distance is concerned Jinryo (神領) is 
actually the nearest station to the university. This is however 
a small station which local express train skips; there are no bus 
stop nor taxi stand at the station; the way from the station 
to the university is rather difficult to find. 

b) There is no conference fee. However I shall provide enough 
amount of coockies and soft drinks for breaks and I would like 
to ask each of the participants to give a contribution of 400 
Yen for this at the conference. 

c) Several participants will remain at Chubu university on 
Monday (Dec. 3) and there will be an informal continuation of 
the meeting. I reserved the same lecture room 913 on Monday for 
this purpose.
