A workshop was held on April 12 and 13, 1996, to provide a forum for gathering information pertinent to using the information highway (the Internet and the World Wide Web) for materials and processes (M&P) research. The workshop`s objectives were to identify the priority needs of materials and processes researchers that could be addressed through the Internet, to describe the relevant capabilities of the information highway, to review existing applications of the highway in materials research and related fields for lessons learned, and to identify potential opportunities and key issues. The workshop was planned and organized by the Committee on Materials and Processes Research and the Information Highway, which was established by the National Materials Advisory Board (NMAB) of the National Research Council (NRC). The workshop was requested and sponsored by the Defense Reliance Technology Panel for Advanced Materials.
