Objectives : Current progress on guided optics will likely modify our conception of astronomical interferometry at visible and IR wavelengths. Clusters of giant telescopes (e.g. the European Very Large Telescope and the two Keck Telescopes) will be coherently combined in the near future to achieve very high spatial resolution. Single mode fiber links of existing or future telescopes is potentially very attractive compared to bulk optics. Experimental interferometers using spatial filtering in guided optics have already reached exceptional gains in visibility accuracy. In addition of ground-based applications, fiber optics components have also been proposed for interferometric space missions. The goal of this conference was to provide a forum for discussions between astronomers and specialists of integrated optics. The sessions has been organized on various topics. Program Session 1: Scientific Drivers Session 2: Guided Optics Technology Session 3: Current Instrumentation for Astronomical Interferometry Session 4: Integrated Optics Components Session 5: Current Developments for Astronomical Interferometry Session 6: Integrated Optics Systems Posters
