U.S. Rep. Lamar Smith toured The University of Texas at Austin’s wireless research lab recently while announcing he obtained a $1.2 million appropriation for electrical engineers to create advanced wireless communication devices for military use. The Defense Appropriations Bill, which the U.S. House of Representatives passed with funds directed toward developing advanced broadband wireless integrated circuits at the university, contained the funds requested by Smith.

I now officially feel like an employee (at the software company I'm contractually unable to name). My dad just passed down to me his old programming flowchart template from college. I had asked him about why certain shapes were used in diagrams (since I'm in the process of rebuilding them), and he said they stem back to the beginning days of computer engineering.
Purdue University’s Elmore Family School of Electrical and Computer Engineering today (Sept. 29) celebrated the completion of new, cutting-edge research space. The Chiminski Family Collaborative Research Hub is located on the second floor of the Materials and Electrical Engineering Building (MSEE). It was made possible by a generous gift from alumnus John R. Chiminski and his wife Laura A. Chiminski.

"One of the better places in the world'
The Centre for Industrial Control Science (CICS) is proving to be a good selling point of the University.
According to two overseas visitors to the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, the centre has received international recognition.
Professor Wojtek Kolodziej Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Oregon State University, told the Bulletin that this University ‘one of the better places in the world’ as far as fundamental research in his speciality was concerned.
‘In combination with the CICS, the Department is a very attractive research destination’, he said. Professor Kolodzeij is working with Professor Graham Goodwin and offering feedback on design techniques and research programs in the CICS.
Professor Goodwin said his collaborator had produced considerable interaction with the industry in America and was offering the CICS advice on how to present developments in research to industry in this country.
Professor Wlod Kockzara, Professor of Power Electrical Drive systems at Warsaw University of Technology, said that although the CICS was very young it commanded respect. After hearing at a Conference in Munich about the research being done by Professor Rob Evans, Dr S. Sathiakumar and other in power electronics, a collaboration had commenced, leading to his decision to work in the Department until April next year."

Brandon Tarter, a masters student in electrical and computer engineering, making preparations for researching motion sickness mitigation solutions for passengers of autonomous vehicles, before a test run with a research participant at the University of Michigan’s Mcity Test Facility in Ann Arbor on Saturday, November 12, 2022. The research is a project lead by Daniel Schulman and fellow Mechanical Engineering PhD Nishant Jalgaonkar.
Autonomous vehicles create the opportunity for passengers to perform productive tasks during their commutes. However, it is estimated that motion sickness afflicts one in three adults in the United States traveling in passenger vehicles. The aim of their project is to design, build, and test a motion sickness mitigation system such as an active seat, active restraint, active passenger stimuli, and active productivity interface.

Abstract:
The field of digital signal processing (DSP) has been a very active area of research and application for more than six decades. This broad development has paralleled in time the rapid development of high-speed electronic digital computers, microelectronics and integrated circuit fabrication technologies. An ever-increasing assortment of integrated circuits specifically tailored to perform common DSP functions is available to the design engineer as system building blocks or parts-in-trade. DSP methodologies have been applied to consumer electronics, communications, automotive electronics, instrumentation, medical electronics, tomography and acoustic imaging, cartography, seismology, speech recognition, robotics and other fields. In his talk, Dr. Mitra will provide a brief overview of the initial developments in DSP and review some of the important advances made during the nearly-60-year period of its growth, and will describe a number of its key applications. He will conclude with speculation on DSP’s future trends and directions.
Dr. Sanjit K. Mitra is a Research Professor in the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering, University of California, Santa Barbara. Dr. Mitra has published over 700 papers in the areas of analog and digital signal processing, and image and video processing. He has also authored and co-authored twelve books, and holds six patents.

Abstract
We live in an era of data deluge. Pervasive sensors collect massive amounts of information on every bit of our lives, churning out enormous streams of raw data in various formats. Mining information and learning from unprecedented volumes of data promises to limit the spread of epidemics and diseases, identify trends in financial markets, learn the dynamics of emergent social-computational systems, and also protect critical infrastructure including the smart grid and the Internet’s backbone network. While Big Data can be definitely perceived as a big blessing, big challenges also arise with large-scale datasets. This talk will overview challenges and opportunities emerging in the analytical and algorithmic foundations that are widely referred to as Data Science, and Network Science, the latter for data residing on graphs formed by agents that are interconnected (or networked) either physically or through their interdependencies.
Georgios Giannakis, PhD, received his diploma in Electrical Engineering from the Ntl. Tech. Univ. of Athens, Greece, 1981. From 1982 to 1986 he was with the Univ. of Southern California (USC), where he received his MSc. in Electrical Engineering, 1983, MSc. in Mathematics, 1986, and Ph.D. in Electrical Engr., 1986. He was with the U. of Virginia from 1987 to 1998, and since 1999 he has been a professor with the U. of Minnesota, where he holds a Chair in Wireless Communications, a University of Minnesota McKnight Presidential Chair in ECE, and serves as director of the Digital Technology Center. His general interests span the areas of communications, networking and statistical signal processing – subjects on which he has published more than 450 journal papers, 750 conference papers, 25 book chapters, two edited books and two research monographs (h-index 143). Current research focuses on data science and network science with applications to social, brain, and power networks with renewables. He is the (co-) inventor of 33 patents issued, and the (co-) recipient of 9 best journal paper awards from the IEEE Signal Processing (SP) and Communications Societies. He also received Technical Achievement Awards from the SP Society (2000), from EURASIP (2005), and the inaugural IEEE Fourier Tech. Field Award (2015). He is a Fellow of EURASIP, and has served the IEEE in various posts including that of a Distinguished Lecturer.
