Summary talk covering application-oriented sessions

Some progress is mentioned in nuclear data, including: nonfuel actinide cross sections, fusion charged particle reactions, lithium-7 breakup reaction, neutrons per fission, decay heat from fission products, the form of the fission spectrum, and neutron scattering differential cross sections. Trends are then identified, particularly N(E,t) for delayed neutrons, internationally focussed efforts to resolve outstanding problems, dosimetry cross sections and techniques, fusion integral experiments, data adjustment, rigorous analysis of differential data, reconsideration of ''completed'' data areas, and particle emission cross sections for fusion systems. Challenges pertaining to data for applications are listed, including neutron kerma data for neutrons above 10 MeV, helium production from neutrons on boron-10, the resonance and thermal regions of fuel nuclides, and tightening of accuracies.
