Following the success of the first workshop on “Dynamics of Disordered Materials” held in September 1988, a second workshop took place in Grenoble from March 22–24, 1993 with the objective of reviewing the considerable progress made. The meeting was jointly organized by the Institut für Festkörper-forschung of the Forschungszentrum Jülich and the Institut Laue-Langevin in Grenoble. The proceedings of the workshop will be published at the end of 1993 as a special issue ofPhysica Aand will contain 13 review articles and 44 contributed papers in both theory and experiments on disordered materials, addressing in particular the dynamics of glasses and the glass transition.
