Main goals

The main purposes of this short but intensive workshop were:

  1. to advance toward the full completion of the CERAMICS topical book in MID version;
  2. to discuss other unit and topical books to be converted to MID, enabling authors to easily write their books;
  3. to review some sections of the CM website;
  4. to think of possible new programs to be written.
