ABOUT ESEC
----------
The second European Software Engineering Conference follows the
meeting held in Strasbourg in 1987. It will consolidate the role of
ESEC as an exciting meeting point of software professionals. Consumers
and producers of software engineering technology will meet to illustrate
and debate the new concepts, methods, tools and practices emerging in
software engineering and to report on practical experience with
state-of-the-art methods and tools.

	  M6 and M45. From London Heathrow: take M-25, then M-1 and M-6.

By Rail - Frequent Inter-City services run from Coventry to London Euston
	  or Paddington stations (75 minutes) and Birmingham (17 minutes).
	  A coach shuttle will transfer delegates between Coventry station
	  and the University. Details will be provided in Delegates' joining
