Welcome to the NVMTS2008 Home Page!
Boise State University is pleased to announce that it will be hosting the Ninth Annual Non-Volatile Memory Technology Symposium, November 11-14, 2008
at the Asilomar Conference Grounds in Pacific Grove, California.
Because Asilomar is not just a hotel but a retreat from the hustle and bustle of the world, your room and meals will be different from your typical hotel. All meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) are included in the cost of your room and will be eaten in the Crocker Dining Hall. Your room will be located in one of the small cabins or cottages located on the grounds. Most cabins/cottages have a common sitting room where you will be able to talk with other attendees. While the rooms do not have TV or internet access, the conference hall will have wireless internet access. Because of the special nature of Asilomar, the room reservation process for this year's meeting will be different than past year's.

- A Poster session for students, post-docs and anyone else to present their work.
Asilomar Conference Grounds
The Asilomar Conference Center is one of the premier conference sites on the Pacific Coast of North America and its 107 acres are known
as Monterey Peninsula's "Refuge by the Sea". While attending the symposium you will have the opportunity to walk the grounds and
along the protected beach front and observe the plants and animals that live in the area. You will also be only minutes from the city of Monterey
where you can visit the famed Aquarium, go on a whale watching trip or even rent a kayak and venture out onto Monterey Bay.
