This conference provides a unique forum for the review of
the latest work on the interaction between computational
methods and experimental measurements.

It is well known that the stable progress in computer
efficiency and numerical techniques are producing a steady
growth of computational simulations which nowadays influence
both an ever-widening range of engineering problems, as well
as our everyday activities. As these simulations are
continuously expanding and improving, there still exists the
necessity of their validation, which can only be
accomplished by performing dedicated experimental tests.
Furthermore, because of their incessant development,
experimental techniques are becoming more complex and
sophisticated so that both their running and data collection
can only be performed by means of computers. Finally, it
must be stressed that, for the majority of the measurements,
the obtained data must be processed by means of numerical
methods.

Scientists working in laboratory and field experiments
produce challenging results which require, in many cases,
difficult interpretation, leading to the reformulation of
the analytical tools used in established computer codes.
