DESCRIPTION:The role of Electromagnetic (EM) fields in our lives has been i
 ncreasing. Communication\, remote sensing\, integrated command/ control/su
 rveillance systems\, intelligent transportation systems\, medicine\, envir
 onment\, education\, marketing\, defense are only a few areas where EM fie
 lds have critical importance. We have witnessed the transformation from En
 gineering Electromagnetics to Electromagnetic Engineering for the last few
  decades after being surrounded by EM waves everywhere. Among many others\
 , EM engineering deals with broad range of problems from antenna design to
  EM scattering\, indoor–outdoor radiowave propagation to wireless commun
 ication\, radar systems to integrated surveillance\, subsurface imaging to
  novel materials\, EM compatibility to nano-systems\, electroacoustic devi
 ces to electro-optical systems\, etc. The range of the devices we use in o
 ur daily life has extended from DC up to Terahertz frequencies. We have ha
 d both large-scale (kilometers-wide) and small-scale (nanometers) EM syste
 ms. Large portion of these systems are broadband and digital\, and have to
  operate in close proximity that results in severe EM interference problem
 s. Engineers have to take EM issues into account from the earliest possibl
 e design stages. This necessitates establishing an intelligent balance bet
 ween strong mathematical background (theory)\, engineering experience (pra
 ctice)\, and modeling and numerical computations (simulation).\n\nThis key

 llenges that confront wave-oriented EM engineering in the 21st century\, i
 n a complex computer and technology-driven world with rapidly shifting soc
