The symposium was sponsored by both TMS and ASM International: TMS Materials Processing and Manufacturing Division, TMS/ASM: Computational Materials Science and Engineering Committee, and TMS/ASM: Phase Transformation Committee. There were 42 presentations given, including 16 invited talks and 2 keynote addresses during the meeting. We also had the distinct pleasure of hosting the 2011 Institute of Metals Lecturer and Robert Franklin Mehl Award winner, Professor David N. Seidman, who presented his lecture, ‘‘The Ubiquitous Interfacial Free Energy in Phase Transformations.’’ The topics covered within the symposium included transformation kinetics and mechanisms, specific transformations in Fe-, Ni-, and Al-based systems, as well as other transformations. As the organizers of the symposium, we would like to thank all those who chose to present their research, as well as all those who attended the presentations and added to it through their questions and comments. We acknowledge with gratitude the financial support provided by CAMECA Instruments.
