Conference Venue
ADBIS 2011 will be held in the main building of the Vienna University of Technology (TU Vienna) Vienna, Austria.
For nearly 200 years, the TU Vienna has been a place of research, teaching and learning in the service of progress.
The TU Vienna is among the most successful technical universities in Europe and is Austria's largest research and educational institution in the area of technical sciences.
Vienna, the capital of Austria, is a city of over 1.8 million inhabitants. It is one of the great cultural centres of Europe with a continuous history of more than 2000 years.
During the Middle Ages, Vienna rose to importance in connecting central Europe with the East, and eventually became the capital of the vast Habsburg empire.
The exceptional concentration of talent, reflected by the great achievements in music, art, and the sciences, was a consequence of Vienna's role as a meeting place of a large number of different nations and traditions.
Although much reduced in importance by the break-up of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy at the end of World War I, and placed on the periphery of the western world as a consequence of World War II,
Vienna has retained its role as one of the leading capitals of Europe. Since the fall of the Iron Curtain it has successfully resumed its tradition of connecting the East and the West.
Today Vienna is a thriving international city, integrating the rich inheritance of a glorious past with a dynamic approach to the modern world. As a seat of numerous international organizations and an important
turntable for business enterprises, Vienna is at the same time a city of operas, concert halls, theatres, universities, museums, and, last but not least, of coffee houses and "Heurigen".
Its maybe this combination which makes Vienna such a favored destination for conferences and conventions
