The dates for IPDPS 2001 are April 23 through 27, the hotel is the Hyatt Regency San Francisco Airport, and the location is the entire Bay Area. The hotel is located 15 minutes from downtown San Francisco and 15 minutes from the center of Silicon Valley, giving easy access to San Jose, Berkeley and Palo Alto as well as Marin County, Half-Moon Bay and Oakland.

This area of palm-tree-lined communities is surrounded by ocean and mountains and boasts a diverse population tied to high technology and a world-renowned center of higher education. For IPDPS constituents, the 2001 site is the consummate work & play setting. America's first "Chinatown" is in San Francisco, San Jose has a growing "Japantown" and California's Mexican influence adds to the mix of every international flavor available throughout the area.

Within easy driving distance are three other California "staples" - the Redwoods, Sonoma Wine Country & Carmel-Monterey. San Jose has the Children's Discovery Museum and the Technology Museum of Innovation. Two nearby parks - Redwood and Joaquin Miller - are rich with trails for hiking, mountain biking and equestrian riding. From many points there are fantastic views of San Francisco Bay, the mountains and of course Mother Nature.
