The increasing speed at which we can acquire, interpret, and process information is responsible for many of the fundamental changes we are observing in the modern world.  Much of this is due to advances in electronic engineering, for example:

• advances in automation and control technologies enable factories to rapidly reconfigure their production lines to respond to market changes;
• advances in signal processing and pattern recognition enable computers to inspect production lines automatically, respond to human speech, or improve medical diagnosis;
• advances in networking, communications, photonics and display technologies increase the speed and number of ways we can access information; and
• advances in chip design and computer architecture are fundamental, and leading technological advancement
