Major Completed <strong>and</strong> Ongoing<br />
Projects<br />
The R&D projects consisted <strong>of</strong> strategies<br />
addressing the general problems <strong>of</strong> the<br />
industry. These cover preproduction,<br />
production, <strong>and</strong> postproduction research<br />
areas.<br />
