Reports

This section provides a complete list of all PAMINA Deliverables and Milestones available for download. The list is structured according the PAMINA components in which the results were achieved.

For your orientation, the PAMINA Summary report is provided. It should be taken to get an overview of the PAMINA project, will guide you through the large amount of information achieved and is helpful as starting point to to find additional information. All other reports listed below are linked in the summary report to their online documents via hyperlinks.
Download the PAMINA Summary Report [1.630 KB] .

Additionally, a CD is provided containing all PAMINA reports including the Summary Report. On the CD, the Summary Report links to the other documents residing on the CD. The CD is provided as ISO-image that can be burned to a CD using standard software.
