The workshop will take place on the first floor of "Bâtiment IIIA" (where is located the LIFO) at
the Faculty of Sciences, Campus de La Source, University of Orléans.
By public transportation
- fly to Paris (Roissy-Charles-de-Gaulle or Orly)

You can also go to Gare de Lyon (RER A) and cross the river to
the other bank
- take a train to Orléans (station)
Beware that there are 2 stations, Orléans-les-Aubrais and
Orléans-Centre (the one you want to go to). All the trains stops at
Orléans-les-Aubrais but you might have to switch to a city train to
get to Orléans-Centre.
To get the timetable of the train, I suggest not to use the site of
the national railways company but the more fast, friendly, add-free,
and even more accurate:
you are then at walking distance from the city center, the old
city, hotels and restaurants.
To go to the university, take the tramway
southward (or right on the provided map, direction "Orléans-La-Source
Hôpital de La Source").
and go down at "Université Parc Floral" (second stop in the campus).
The workshop is located in computer science building of
sciences: "Bâtiment IIIA" where the LIFO is located.
Since you arrive on the southern platform, just follows the tracks and turn north,
This is the flat building with a large cylinder on top.

The university is in green on the lower right.
When you get there, use the above map.
There is a free parking by the building.

From Paris:

leave at "Orléans-sud" (exit number 2) and Olivet et Orléans la
Source;
After the toll, go straight (direction Orléans la Source)
