Then, all the content presented was discussed by adding new keywords to the framework of the project.

The second CORE meeting followed the approach of the first one and again all the participants were asked to present their previous works, researches, and/or issues you process by referring to any of the initial keywords of the project. The content presented was discussed after each presentation by adding new keywords to the framework of the project.
