Signal processing techniques and technologies are truly ubiquitous in the
devices and services that we take for granted in this age of information. The Field of
Interest (FOI) of the IEEE Signal Processing Society
http://www.signalprocessingsociety.org/about-sps/scope-mission/ succinctly describes
the fundamental components and aims of what is, and likely to be in the foreseeable
future, broadly defined as signal processing. This statement also highlights the blurred
lines and convergence of approaches with a number of other fields such as computing,
information theory, communications and networking, data science, and machine
intelligence.
This talk will provide a perspective on the history of the development of modern signal
processing as manifested in the growth and technical diversification of the field and its
professional portfolio. A number of examples are provided to illustrate the trends in the
field and some likely future directions made possible by developments in sensing,
computational and communication technologies, and opportunities ranging from
entertainment to grand challenge problems in energy and health care.

Biography:

Mostafa (Mos) Kaveh received his BS and PhD degrees in electrical
engineering from Purdue University in 1969 and 1974, respectively, and his MS degree
from the University of California at Berkeley in 1970. He is a Professor of Electrical and
Computer Engineering, and the Associate Dean for Research and Planning for the
College of Science and Engineering at the University of Minnesota. He served as the
Head of his department from 1990 -2005. His research and educational activities have
been on a variety of areas of signal and image processing and digital communications,
including the processing of sensor array signals, image reconstruction and tomography
and wireless communications.
Dr. Kaveh is a former President of the IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS), and has
served that Society in a number of editorial and leadership positions over the past three
and half decades. His recognitions and honors from the IEEE include election as a Fellow
of the IEEE in 1988, and the Society Award of the IEEE Signal Processing Society in
2000. He is a Fellow of the AAAS, and in 2002 received an Outstanding Electrical and
Computer Engineer Award from Purdue University.
