Abstract: Abstract Our survey (and the reference list) does not reflect the history of tensor products of operator algebras. Here we make use of tensor product functors on the category of C-algebras as a unifying principle. An application of our theory to the classification problem of Elliott [13] can be found at the end of this paper. Throughout the paper algebra means C*-algebra and vN-algebra means von Neumann algebra. L (H) is the algebra of bounded operators on a Hilbert space of infinite dimension.
