Abstract
This invited lecture consists of two kinds of content. One is a topic about recent trends in technical information which P/M in US has been searching for. MPIF and APMI have had several Special Interest Programs every annual International Conference or World Congress. The trends are summarized by classifying these programs into some categories arbitrarily chosen. The other is the régime of our presentation "Micro structural Dependency of Soft Magnetism in a Sintered Stainless Fe-12%Cr Alloy" in the special interest program 7 'P/M Technologies for Emerging Electronic & Electromagnetic Applications' at the PM2TEC 2003 in Las Vegas.
