There will be a presentation of a report by each Technical Committee. This presentation should be limited to 45 minutes duration for the General Committees and 30 minutes duration for the Specialist Committees and Group, leaving the last 45 minutes of the session for open discussions. The discussion should concentrate on the opinions, conclusions and recommendations expressed by the Committee. Discussion within 1,000 words of length must be submitted in writing in order to be published in Volume III of the Proceedings. Oral (non-written) discussions will be allowed by the session chairman to the extent that time allows, but they will not be published unless they are later sent in writing to the Conference Secretariat. If you wish to make your own discussion available in writing to all participants during the Conference, it can be done in two ways: A) mail your written discussion to the Executive Committee Secretary sufficiently early to be received by the 14th of August 2008, the Secretariat will prepare the necessary number of copies and distribute them at the Conference; B) prepare and bring 200 copies of your discussion and hand them over to the Secretariat upon arrival in Fukuoka. It is essential that the names of the Technical Committee and of the discusser are shown at the top of each page of the written discussion. In order to assist the Secretariat in preparing the Volume III of the proceedings, we would also appreciate if you could provide us with your written discussion as a Word document on a CD or USB flash memory drive or by e-mail attached file, compatible with Windows 2000/XP. Group Discussions Beside the traditional technical sessions, a programme of group discussions on specific topics has been established to be held during the 25th ITTC. Three group discussions will be held in the afternoons on Tuesday, September 16 (GD1), on Wednesday, September 17 (GD2) and on Friday, September 19 (GD3). The topics for the group discussions are: GD1: Impact of CFD on Ship Hydrodynamics GD2: Image-based Measurements around Ship Hulls GD3: Global Warming and Impact on ITTC Activities There will be, for each group discussion, invited speakers who will have a maximum 10 minutes each. After that, discussion will be open to contributors from the floor. Group Chairmen are responsible for the technical organization that is the format of presentations and the preparation and editing of a summary of the group discussion. 2 Social Programme All participants and accompanying persons are invited to attend the following social activities included in the registration fee. September 14 (Sunday) 18:00-20:00 Welcome Reception at Fukuoka Sunpalace Hotel, which is located next door to Fukuoka International Congress Center (the venue of the Conference). The reception will be held in Palace Room on the 2nd floor of Fukuoka Sunpalace Hotel. There is a walkway on the 2nd floor connecting Fukuoka International Congress Center and Fukuoka Sunpalace Hotel. See a map for the location and floor layout on the website (page of Venue) of the 25th ITTC (http://riam.kyushu-u.ac.jp/ship/ittc/). The secretariat will be open for registration during the period 14:00 – 17:30 at the lobby of the 5th floor of Fukuoka International Congress Center. September 18 (Thursday) 12:30-17:30 Conference Tour – Half-day Coach Trip to Two Different Destinations Participants are requested to choose one of the two options in advance, Tour A (918-A) or Tour B (918-B). Please tick the course you want to attend in the registration form (which is attached on the end of this brochure and downloadable as well from the website of the 25th ITTC) and send it by fax. Selection of the Tour can also be done through electronic registration on the website. See below for the outline of the Tours. After lunch at Fukuoka Sunpalace Hotel, coaches will depart from Fukuoka Inter- national Congress Center at 12:30 and take participants to two different destinations. Every coach will be attended by a government-licensed English-speaking guide. Both Tours will be returning to Fukuoka International Congress Center by 17:30 before dinnertime. Pickup and sending service will be available from/to Hotel Nikko Fukuoka. Tour A: Kyushu National Museum and Dazaifu Shrine (918-A) After 30-minute drive partly through Fukuoka urban expressway, participants can visit two places during the tour, Kyushu National Museum and Dazaifu Shrine (Tenmangu). They are very closely located each other and the participants can walk around the two sites. During the visit to Dazaifu Shrine, participants will be served at a Japanese-style cafeteria a cup of green tea with sweet rice cake called Umegae-mochi. Kyushu National Museum (http://www.kyuhaku.com/) is Japan’s fourth national museum, opened in 2006 featuring historical exhibits to prove close relations between Japan and other Asian nations since prehistoric age including several national treasures. Normally visitors can see both permanent and special exhibitions, but very un- fortunately there will be no special exhibition during the period of the 25th ITTC (a new special exhibition will start from September 23). Therefore, participants will appreciate only the permanent exhibition. The admission fee is included in the registration fee. Dazaifu Tenmangu (http://www.dazaifutenmangu.or.jp/other/) is the biggest and most popular shrine in Fukuoka area, with wide and beautiful garden. Dazaifu Tenmangu was built over the grave of Michizane Sugawara who died in 903 and has been venerated by the Japanese throughout the country as the God of literature and 3 calligraphy. Many visitors are coming here especially before entrance examinations to wish their success and happiness. Tour B: Toyota Factory Tour and Old Residence of Rich Mine Manager (918-B) 1-hour drive via Kyushu expressway will take participants to an assembly factory of Toyota Motor Kyushu Inc. http://www.toyota-kyushu.com/english/. Participants will join 1-hour factory tour to see body assembly line of Toyota’s popular models, Lexus and Highlander. A tour guide will translate Japanese explanation into English. Next, participants will visit Mr. Ito Den-Emon’s house, which is almost 100-year old residence owned by a prominent coal mine manager in the northern Kyushu area, Mr. Ito Den-Emon: http://www.city.iizuka.lg.jp/02manabi/rekishi/shiseki/itoutei/. Not only the residence itself but also his once wife, Ms. Yanagihara Byakuren, is well known as a poet. Her romance and related stories are also well known. Participants can enter this traditional Japanese house, see its valuable architecture, relax and stroll in a Japanese garden. September 19 (Friday) 18:30-21:00 Conference Banquet at Hotel Nikko Fukuoka The conference banquet will be held at Hotel Nikko Fukuoka, one of the five-star hotels in Fukuoka selected as a main accommodation for ITTC 2008.
