IEEE International Conference on Software Analysis, Evolution and Reengineering

Somerville House

SANER 2020 will be hosted in one of the best conference venues in Western University. Somerville House is in the center of the campus and very close to the receptions' locations.

The conference shuttle bus will be stopping outside the conference venue, but for those of you using the local bus service, the stop is really close to Somerville House. As you can see in the provided campus map, Alumni Hall, which is the main bus stop on campus, is less than 3 minutes away. To further facilitate reaching the conference, signs will be posted.
