Novel phenomena in submicron semiconductor devices and small Josephson junctions emphasize the need to understand quantum mechanical coherence and tunneling in mesoscopic and macroscopic systems. These proceedings review the recent experimental and theoretical progress and discuss new concepts, techniques and results.
