This summary should be about 300 words only.

Section 3: Subject Keywords

Please suggest not more than ten keywords that best describe the

Seminar.

Section 4: Objectives

field should get a clear understanding of the research technique to be

presented in the Seminar as distinct from data/sample collection

activities and routine activities.

Section 8: Utilisation of research results

facilitate their use by other teaching and research communities and

industries. The intent of this section is to get an idea of how the

interaction between researchers and potential users of research results

could possibly be initiated, stimulated and maintained.
