Summary

Current research fields in science and technology were presented and discussed at the EKC2008, informing about the interests and directions of the scientists and engineers in EU countries and Korea. The Conference has emerged from the idea of bringing together EU and Korea to get to know each other better, especially in fields of science and technology. The focus of the conference is put on the topics: Computational Fluid Dynamics; Mechatronics and Mechanical Engineering; Information and Communications Technology; Life and Natural Sciences; Energy and Environmental Technology.
