N2 - The studies were performed to determine the effectiveness of instrumentation design of European Extremely Large Telescope. It was observed that the provision of a suitable environment for instruments is a critical part of the design of all large telescopes. Achieving the maximum dynamic range for critical science goals such as the detection of extra-solar planets will require a full understanding of the effects of segmentation on the delivered image structure. It is emphasized that the correction of atmospheric dispersion will be essential throughout the visible and NIR region.
