Abstract

More than a dozen optical/IR interferometers have been in operation in the period 1985-2000. The lessons that can be learned from these arrays to guide the building of future interferometers are discussed, including their design, the practical problems encountered in their construction and operation, and the strategic and fundamental technical issues relating to the overall scientific productivity of an array. The interferometers discussed in detail are mainly those which the author has had personal experience of designing, building, and/or operating.
