This ECSC workshop "Application of Artificial Neural Network Systems in the Steel
Industry", held in Brussels on 22 and 23 January 1998, continues a series of ECSC-supported
workshops devoted to scientific and technical discussion focused on the solution of
technological problems of major interest to the European steelmaking industry.
The aims of this workshop were to stimulate a wider technical discussion, to clarify ideas and
concepts arising from the international state of the art and from results of related ECSC
projects, and to attempt to formulate common technical viewpoints.
Indeed, several research projects are running and several proposals on this subject are
submitted every year for ECSC funding and this workshop helped to better understand where
we are and were we should try to go. The presentations and the discussion provided some
clear inputs on the status of the technologies and problems related to their implementation in
industry.
The success registered by this workshop was mainly due to the extensive knowledge and
specialisation of the participants and on the clearly focused technical nature of the discussion,
as described in these proceedings.
