As for your question about renting laptops:
I'm afraid our situation is much more primitive. The classroom has a PC at each student table. So the student would not be working at a laptop, but rather at a DePaul PC. If the student wishes to transfer data to his/her laptop at the end of the tutorial, I think the best advice is to tell the students to bring memory sticks. DePaul CTI does not have a very visitor-friendly policy about giving access to wi-fi in these classrooms.

Subject: Re:
Steve,
It'll probably be best to include me on any further communications
regarding the NetLogo tutorial, as I'll be the one coordinating and
running it. (I'm a computer science grad student working with Uri.)
We'd prefer to have the participants fill out a registration form
similar to one we've used in past workshops:
http://ccl.northwestern.edu/agent2006/registration.shtml I'll get a
SwarmFest2007 form done in the next couple of days and will send you the
link when it's ready. If you'd like to get something up right away,
address@hidden is the best e-mail address for
registration requests.
One question - will there be an option for the participants to rent
laptops? Fewer and fewer are taking advantage of such offerings, but it
*is* usually utilized by at least a few.
Thanks!
Josh
Steve:
Please send the messages to Dee Albarado (address@hidden).
If the NetLogo and Repast classes both charge fees should the SDG
collect them? It seems like it would be difficult for registrants to
pay to two different organizations.

Subject: Registration for classes at SwarmFest
Hi Michael and Uri,
Steve Lytinen and I are trying to decide how to handle registration for
your classes at SwarmFest.
It seems like the easiest thing might be to just have people contact you
directly: we could simply put an email address on the conference site
that people would send a message to to register for your classes.
That way, you won't have to wait for us to process anything, and you can
easily track the registration and contact the registrants.
Does that sound OK? If so, could you provide the email address you would
use?
(You might want to use a temporary address with no spam filtering to
make sure you don't miss anyone.)
