ADVISORY/ Dr. Andrew Viterbi to Deliver Inaugural Lecture for the Online Symposium for Electronics Engineers on Wireless Technology.Business/Technology Editors ADVISORY...Tuesday Tuesday: see week. (Oct. 10)
WHAT: Dr. Andrew J. Viterbi debuts as the first expert speaker for
the Online Symposium for Electronics Engineers (OSEE). Dr.
Viterbi will present "The Wireless Information Future and its
Technological Foundations" for the first time exclusively on
the Web. The presentation will deliver a comprehensive look
into wireless networking, system modeling and system
technology.
WHEN: Tuesday, October 10, 2000 at 3:00 PM EST, 12:00 PM PST.
WHY: This presentation examines the dramatic progress in wireless
brought about by the digital transformation empowered by
solid state technology and the blending of computer and
communication technologies. An exploration of the impact of
miniaturization and integration on manufacturing, distribution
and service industries and the effect of this progress
on the economy and society in the coming decades.
Participants will have the opportunity to ask Dr. Viterbi
questions during a live Q&A session immediately following the
webcast.
WHO: Dr. Andrew Viterbi, co-founder of Qualcomm and TechOnLine's
newly appointed chairman of the board of directors, has more
than 40 years of experience in the communications industry
and is renowned for his contributions to the
telecommunications industry, most notably The Viterbi
Algorithm. Dr. Viterbi currently serves on the President's
Information Technology Advisory Committee.
HOW: For more information on all lectures or to register for Dr.
Viterbi's lecture, visit www.osee.net. No additional
software beyond a standard Internet browser to support Java

participate in these lectures.
About OSEE The Online Symposium symposium In ancient Greece, an aristocratic banquet at which men met to discuss philosophical and political issues and recite poetry. It began as a warrior feast. Rooms were designed specifically for the proceedings. for Electronics Engineers (OSEE) is pioneering a new approach to the delivery of education and timely information to the electrical and design engineering communities. The first OSEE kicks off an ongoing series of 250 exclusive, online lectures and forums organized around several technical areas including wireless communication, data networking, analog and RF electronics, DSP (1) (Digital Signal Processor) A special-purpose CPU used for digital signal processing applications (see definition #2 below). It provides ultra-fast instruction sequences, such as shift and add, and multiply and add, which are commonly used in math-intensive algorithms The following is a list of the algorithms described in Wikipedia. See also the list of data structures, list of algorithm general topics and list of terms relating to algorithms and data structures. , embedded Inserted into. See embedded system. processing, digital logic design, bioelectronics Bioelectronics A discipline in which biotechnology and electronics are joined in at least three areas of research and development: biosensors, molecular electronics, and neuronal interfaces. , materials and devices, electronics systems and power electronics. These lectures will be made available, free of charge, to the engineering community worldwide, beginning October October: see month. 10, 2000 and continuing through March, 2001. |
