Heavy quark physics is a very active area of research and the reliable computation of hadronic states and matrix elements containing b and c quarks is of considerable importance to further tests of the Standard Model.

Aims of the mini-workshop were

• to review recent progress in the precision of lattice and sum rule techniques both for heavy-heavy and heavy-light hadrons and their decay matrix elements
• to discuss the demands on theory from the next generation of experiments at B and charm factories.

Topics discussed include:

• Upsilon Spectroscopy
• B and D Meson Decays
• Potential Models
• Heavy Quark Methods on the Lattice
• Sum Rule Techniques
• Determinations of Standard Model Parameters
