The ''Byzantine History Data Bank Program'' is a sort of computerized Encyclopaedia on Byzantine History, where more than 42.000 text passages in a whole sum of 56.000 items included in it can be combined in various ways (mostly persons and geographical locations in cross-reference with chronological data) in order to provide evidence and bibliographical support to major infrastructure works as well as to individual monographs and research. Although of a rather obsolescent technology (clipper software) and without any technical support since it has never been financed by anyone, the program gave birth to (or substantially supported) 14 books, according written mentions of their authors (acknowledgements, foreword and elsewhere) two major collective works (1. Asia Minor and its Themes, 2. Regesten der Kaiserurkunden 476-565) and supplied crucial evidence to many Greek and foreign scholars who asked the program's help.
In their scientific monographs and studies the Program members handle several scientific topics and areas, such as texts analysis, Byzantine state administration and institutions, diplomacy, army and relations between East and West in the Middle Ages. A third collective work intitled ''Diplomacy and Armed Forces confronting the West'' has been scheduled to be completed till February 2006. The Team members usually respond positively to invitations to give lectures, teach in seminars and taught in universities 1999).
