During ACL Coling Wireless Internet will be available to delegates in all public spaces (with possible restrictions in the rooms used for presentations).. The wireless network provided will be 802.11b/g standard with no port restrictions. Network bandwidth will be capped at 200kbps per user to maintain quality of service. Improper or inappropriate use of the network may result blocked network access. Please DO NOT use the network for Voice over IP telephony (VoIP) or peer to peer file sharing, since these applications consume a great deal of bandwidth. Our contract with the service provider means that excess usage will result in throttling back.
All registered delegates for Coling-ACL will receive some quick notes each week until the conference - to highlight aspects you should be aware of, so you can enjoy your visit to Australia to the fullest.
