Objective
The objective of the Symposium on Fusion Technology (SOFT) is to
exchange information on design, construction and operation of fusion
experiments and on the technology for present
fusion machines, the next step and power plants. With ITER construction
now starting, fusion research is making a big step forward. ITER with
its demanding requirements is expected to be a major topic on this symposium. SOFT includes oral and
poster presentations as well as an industrial and R & D exhibition.
The expected attendance is 600 to 700 delegates from
all over the world, active in university, research laboratories and
ITER construction as well as in industrial manufacturing. Scientists,
engineers, developers, users and students are offered an opportunity to
exchange views and visions/experience and to establish business
contacts .
