What's New

· Important reminder: The COST 340 Action will end at the end of the summer, 2005. The dissemination of the Action results becomes therefore a main objective. Each MC member is requested to produce a list of possible contacts in his/her own country as soon as possible.

· The COST 340 Final Conference was held in PARIS from June 13 to June 15, 2005. All information about the conference, the programme, the papers abstracts, etc., is available on the COST 340 Final Conference dedicated webpage: http://www.ahicf.com/cec2/cost340_siteofficiel.htm
You'll find below the presentations delivered at the conference: please contact the authors for any quotation or use of the copyright of pictures, charts, graphs, maps, etc.

· Travel expenses reimbursement forms for MC members have been specially edited by the scientific secretariat and included in the conference dossier. For general reimbursement rules, See: http://cost.cordis.lu/src/cost_office_documents.cfm

In short: Allowance is: 107 € per night (incl. breakfast) and 21 € for each main meal. Participants can be refunded for the number of days/equal to the duration of meeting > i.e. arrival one day after meeting earliest, departure one day after meting latest. If necessary for significantly cheaper ticket (APEX), another night can be refunded, but it is useful to support such solution by a letter from travel agency or airline (the difference between normal fare and APEX should be at least around 200 €, if we have to pay 149 € allowance). The ticket price should not exceed 1200 € and no business class (both rules particularly to be noticed by the non-European participants).

2. Management Committee Documents

Below you will find the official documents produced by the Management Committee and its Working Groups. Still unpublished papers have been removed from this webpage, as they will be soon in print: COST 340 publications are announced and detailed on the public page, see: http://www.ahicf.com/cec2/cost340_publications.htm

Some now obselete administrative documents have been removed as well, which explains the gaps in the documents numbers.
