   ACD Users' Meeting - Agenda

Two User Meetings were held by the ACD distributor in Japan, Fujitsu Limited, in Tokyo and Osaka. The presenters were three representatives from ACD/Labs, two Fujitsu experts, and three guest speakers from LA Systems, Mitsubishi Chemicals, and Ono Pharm. The presentations were devoted to capabilities of the latest ACD/Labs software and to its application to current problems of analytical and medicinal chemistry. Several presentations described the integration of ACD/Labs products with other software packages to form a convenient and powerful analytics system. The meetings were held in an efficient fashion, resulted in productive opinion exchange, and generated a new stream of ideas for product improvement.
