Focusing on MPEG Audio Coding that is the most widely used internat ional standard in our daily life\, some important techniques we contribute d are explained along the history. Recent standardization activities are b riefly touched to show the unlimited potential of audio coding. An encount er of the Silicon Audio\, developed in 1994 and the real ancestor of iPod\ , is the highlight of this lecture\, which cannot be experienced elsewhere . The audience will see how iPod started its function 20 years ago.\n\nBio graphy: Akihiko Sugiyama (a.k.a. Ken Sugiyama)\, affiliated with NEC Infor mation and Media Processing Labs.\, has been engaged in a wide variety of research projects in signal processing such as audio coding and interferen ce/noise control. His team developed the world's first Silicon Audio in 19 94\, the ancestor of iPod. He served as Chair of Audio and Acoustic Signal Processing Tech. Committee\, IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS) [2011-2 012]\, as associate editors for several journals such as IEEE Trans. SP [1 994-1996]\, as the Secretary and a Member at Large to the Conference Board of SPS [2010-2011]\, as a member of the Awards Board of SPS [2015- ]\, an d as the Chair of Japan Chapter of SPS [2010-2011]. He was a Technical Pro gram Chair for ICASSP2012. He has contributed to 16 chapters of books and is the inventor of over 150 registered patents with more pending applicati ons in the field of signal processing in Japan and overseas.
