Organic, Molecular and Nanostructured Electronics
- Physics and
Technology [6.17s]
June 9-13, 2008
Vladimir Bulovic, Marc A Baldo
Examine the use of organic thin films in active organic
devices -
including organic LEDs, solar cells, photodetectors,
transistors,
chemical sensors and memory cells. Then make your own
active organic
devices in the lab. A text will be provided.
High-Speed I/O Design Techniques [6.22s]
June 23-25, 2008
Vladimir Stojanovic
Explore the circuit and system design of equalized
high-speed I/Os.
Following an introduction to the basics, focus on different
link
equalization techniques, comparing them from a system
perspective and
from the performance of resulting circuit implementations.
Course
includes one day of hands-on lab experience.
Principles of Lasers and Fiberoptics
July 14-16, 2008
Shaoul Ezekiel
The essential fundamentals that govern the behavior
of lasers and
fiberoptics will be explained. Emphasis will be on
the understanding,
in real time, of the fundamental concepts involved.
This course does
not require a technical/mathematical background.
Principles of Laser-Based Sensors
July 28-30, 2008
Shaoul Ezekiel
Provides a comprehensive, yet easily understandable,
coverage of the
basics of optical sensors, without the need for a strong
technical or
mathematics background. Emphasis is on understanding,
in real time,
the fundamental concepts involved.
Digital Communication Networks [6.20s]
July 28-August 1, 2008
Muriel Medard
Ideal for practicing engineers and researchers looking
to apply
advanced design and performance evaluation techniques
to digital
networks. Covers communication subnetworks; and transport,
internetwork, network, data link and physical layers.
Learn how these
layers operate and interact.
Introduction to Network Coding [6.33s]
August 4-8, 2008
Muriel Medard
Network coding is a new area of networking, in which
data is
manipulated inside the network to increase throughput,
reduce delay,
and improve robustness. This field has recently found
commerical
applications in content distribution, peer-to-peer
design, and
enabling high-throughput wireless networks. The goal
of this class is
to provide participants with the theoretical and practical
tools
necessary not only to understand the field of network
coding, but
also to conduct independent, innovative work in the
area. The
curriculum reflects this mixture of theoretical foundations
and
practical approaches.
