July 1999
The following represents the latest in a series of short monthly updates
outlining activities and progress on the CME 03601-CZ, to be distributed directly
to the partners within the project, and to be made available to all other
interested parties, whether from the partner institutions involved, other academic
institutions, and/or industry or non academic bodies
1. Logistical issues / timetable restructuring
The main development during this month has been that financial transactions
necessary for the continuation of the project have now begun to take place,
with funds being transferred into appropriate areas for the provision of staff
costs, overheads, and mobility allowances. It is envisaged that next month will
see the planned exchanges and visits taking place, according to the revised
schedule (i.e. the visits originally scheduled for taking place in April and
May will now commence at the start of August).
2. Data Collection and analysis
The data collection for the project has now been suspended due to the summer
break at the two Czech universities. The results and progress of the data
collection are in the meantime being reviewed and evaluated by Dr.Jones and
Dr.Bauer, with several other approaches for increasing the amount and use of
information for the project currently being considered. A substantial amount of
information has now been collected, following this uninterrupted four-month data
collection phase. This data is currently being analysed and will be re-presented
as a series of reference tables detailing activities, expertise, and specialist
interests of staff at the two Czech university sites. This information will be
included on the project web pages following the visit of Dr.Jones to the Czech
Republic during early August.
Next month is: August
