Main groups of projects and other actions

The initial set of projects had been grouped into 7 Project Lines (see Annual Report AIM 1992), which served as major clusters for the concertation process, that implied joint meetings three or four times per year and other forms of collaboration. The grouping of projects according to the above lines was foreseen as a dynamic process, which was consolidated by taking into account the mutual interests expressed by the consortia during the concertation process.

However, as new contracts, including concerted actions, accompanying measures and chartered studies were added to the list of actions funded by the programme resources (or others in collaboration with related European Communities activities), the grouping showed here down is a final picture representing domains of applications of technologies or main subject area.
