Abstract

This issue of the RPC workshop occurs in a particular historical moment which is characterized by a number of RPC systems already in data taking or in phase of advanced commissioning. In particular the startup of the Cern LHC, foreseen this year, will be a crucial test for the trigger and the time-of-flight RPC systems that have been developed for both trigger and time-of-flight by most of the LHC experiments. This offers the opportunity to evaluate the results achieved by very large systems. This introductory talk will stress some of the main achievements and problems of the last two years. The choice of the topics is somewhat arbitrary and apologies are due for the relevant results not mentioned here.
