Our readers take a look at INÉDIT
At the beginning of the year, we carried out a study among our readers concerning INÉDIT.
Approximately one hundred readers were contacted by telephone or through the Web to give
their impressions on the newsletter. Based on their remarks, we are now working on an
improved layout in order to offer you a more attractive, more informative and livelier
September issue. The changes in form will be accompanied by a few changes in the contents.
We will strive for a better balance between scientific and technological subjects, and aim for
a more concrete and clearer writing style for our nonspecialist readers.
We hope that INÉDIT will continue to meet your expectations and allow you to discover the
activities of INRIA and its partners in the field of information and communication
technologies.
