✦ Synopsis

The topological concepts which have been applied to describe the geometry o f sinter structures and the topological data which has been obtained to date are briefly presented. This data, although limited in extent, when combined with the metric data provides the basis for a quantitative description o f the geometric evolution accompanying the sintering process. T w o contrasting viewpoints of this geometric evolution aye briefly presented.
