The "Tilings lectures" shall be held in the mathematics department. We shall there enjoy (next to each other) a 90-seat lecture hall (with a whiteboard and a video projector), a comfortable rest room for tea breaks and discussions and two 30-computer rooms (with a video projector) for internet access and mathematical software lectures.

The "Tessellations lectures", which should reach a wider audience, will be held in the end of the day either in the Isfahan Mathematics House (IMH) located in the center of Isfahan, or directly on the spot (visit of architectural monuments). A special bus shall bring all the participants together to this place (and back to the IUT).
