This conference looked at the problems of having two approaches, namely that of classical physics and of quantum theory . However Lorentz never fully accepted quantum theory and always hoped that it would be possible to incorporate it back into the classical approach.
Ang kumperensya tumingin sa mga problema ng pagkakaroon ng dalawang pagtugon, namely na ng mga klasiko physics at ng quantum theory. Subalit Lorentz hindi ganap na tinanggap quantum theory at laging inaasam na ito ay magiging posible na magsama-sama ito sa ang pangunahin diskarte.
