CHAIRMAN'S COLUMN

It is my pleasure to report on the increased cooperation between ECE and CS. Professor Peter Dinda from CS has been given a courtesy appointment in ECE and Professor Robert Dick from ECE has been given a courtesy appointment in CS.

Profs. Dick and Dinda cooperated last quarter on a jointly taught course on real-time operating systems, which was taught as a special topics course, and will be made a permanent course cross-listed by both departments.

ECE faculty members have been working in recent weeks on the strategic plan for the ECE department.
