For four days during November 2014, the Australian Acoustical Society will be hosting inter.noise 2014. Melbourne, the modern, dynamic capital of Victoria, will be the host city. The Congress venue will be the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre superbly located on the banks of the Yarra River, just a short stroll from the central business district. Papers will cover all aspects of noise control, with additional workshops and an extensive equipment exhibition to support the technical program. The Australian Acoustical Society warmly invites you to attend what promises to be a thought provoking Congress “down under”.
