Preliminary ProgramPorto: Rua de Arnaldo Gama. Please visit Porto digitally, as this conference site is being populated with information for participants. Following the link will load in your browser window a Google Maps 3D sphere that allows you to take a digital walkthrough. Hovering your cursor over the 3D -surround scene allows you, as usual, to grab-and-rotate the scene in all directions. Flattened 'oval and arrow' pointers, when hovering, tell you where you may go further, to other available adjacent 3D spheres. The map in the lower left hand corner, when enlarged and filling the lower portion of the screen, will show you where exactly you are in town, and blue lines in the streets indicate where other 3D spheres or linked street scenes may be accessed.
