چکیده
The field of EAP is continuing to expand and the number of investigators and potential users that are joining this effort is steadily growing. A reflection of this growth has been seen in the number of abstracts that were submitted to the upcoming SPIE EAPAD 2001 Conference. While in the first two years about 50 abstracts were submitted, for the upcoming conference over 70 abstracts were submitted. The topics of research that would be presented are covering a broad range of topics spanning from analytical modeling to application considerations.
