1st project year[]

The results of the FACETS project year are documented in scientific publications and the completed deliverables.The expected audience for them are specialists, though.

The FACETS research topic and the reached results can also be interesting for people not directly concerned with the detailed and specialized research. Therefore we present some of the results from the first project year (September 2005 - August 2006) in a higher level and / or generalized form.

Results are shown in the context of the FACETS workpackages
