GEOGRAPHICAL AREAS

ROME IS FOUNDED ON SEVEN HILLS

AND PULLED THEM TOGETHER

THIS IS MUCH LIKE WAY THE FIELDS OF MICRO-

INSTRUMENTATION AND PROCESS CONTROL ARE

BECOMING

(DIFFICULT TO DEFINE SEPARATELY)

TECHNICAL AREAS AND ORGANIZTIONS

• MICRO-REACTORS

• MICRO-ANALYTICAL

• PROCESS INTENSIFCATION

• PROCESS CONTROL

• INDUSTRY

• ACADEMIA

• GOVERNMENT
