Abstract

After the data dilemma has been described, that a lot of data and information exists but as well manifold inconsistent data sets are around which are usually not addressed now the focus is put towards the magnet materials to illustrate a new approach to contribute to a partial solution for the problem. First some basics about magnets and magnet technology have to be explained.
