SAFETY AND OPERATION - Crete, October 2001 WELCOME - INTRODUCTION It is with great pleasure that I welcome you all to the International Maritime Research and Technology multi-conference organised by the Department of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering of the National Technical University of Athens. Following the successful organisation of the 3rd International Stability Workshop on "Contemporary problems of ship stability and operational safety" in 1997 in Crete, a number of prominent colleagues dealing with maritime R&D in Europe and overseas asked NTUA to consider hosting again a series of conferences and meeting events at the beautiful island of Crete. The response was, of course, positive despite of the anticipation of organisational problems related to the uniqueness of this multi- conference. I am very pleased to see you all here, especially those of you who have come from overseas. We are expecting over the next few days close to 200 colleagues and friends from all over Europe, USA and Japan, a clear indication of high expectations and of interesting days ahead. We count among the participants not only internationally recognised experts but also more than 20 young researchers of European academic and industrial institutions thanks to the support of the TMR programme of the European Commission.
