Mission Statement of The Bridge The Bridge publishes articles on engineering research, education, and practice; science and technology policy; and the interface between engineering and technology and society. The intent is to stimulate debate and dialogue both among members of the National Academy of Engineering (NAE) and in the broader community of policymakers, educators, business leaders, and other interested individuals. The Bridge relies on its editor in chief, NAE members, and staff to identify potential issue topics and guest editors. Invited guest editors, who have expertise in a given issue’s theme, are asked to select authors and topics, and inde- pendent experts are enlisted to assess articles for publication. The quarterly has a distribution of about 7000, including NAE members, members of Congress, libraries, universities, and interested individuals all over the country and the world. Issues are freely accessible at www.nae.edu/TheBridge. A complete copy of The Bridge is available in PDF format at www.nae.edu/TheBridge.

  • Oral History of Martin Cooper
    Oral History of Martin Cooper Interviewed by: Sean Maloney Recorded: May 2, 2008 Mountain View, California CHM Reference number: X4602.2008 © 2008 Computer History Museum Oral History of Martin Cooper Sean Maloney: [This is an interview with Martin Cooper conducted at the Computer History Museum on May 2, 2008.] So what were your earliest memories of Chicago? Earliest memories? Martin Cooper: I was actually born in Chicago, but my family moved back to Canada, which was where they had come from, when I was only a year old. So my earliest memories really are in Winnipeg. And amazingly enough my earliest memories are technological memories. Watching some older kids with a magnifying glass burning paper and desperately wanting to do that myself and I couldn't understand why when I took a broken bottle and used the base of the bottle, I couldn't get this thing to focus and burn the sun. So, it's those kinds of things; I was always curious about those things; trying to build stuff. Mostly unsuccessfully. Maloney: Did you have brothers and sisters? Cooper: Yeah, I have a younger brother. My younger brother is, or was a banker, and a musician. Both of them, very, very successfully. Maloney: Do you think your parents in any way encouraged you to get in what I guess later you’d call technology? Cooper: No. not at all. But what my parents did was encourage me to read and I've always been just an avid reader, and actually my interest in technology really came out of just being imaginative.

This began with point-to-point communication between mainframe computers and terminals, expanded to point-to-point connections between computers and then early research into packet switching. Packet switched networks such as ARPANET, Mark I at NPL in the UK, CYCLADES, Merit Network, Tymnet, and Telenet, were developed in the late 1960s and early 1970s using a variety of protocols. The ARPANET in particular led to the development of protocols for internetworking, where multiple separate networks could be joined together into a network of networks. In 1982 the Internet Protocol Suite (TCP/IP) was standardized and the concept of a world-wide network of fully interconnected TCP/IP networks called the Internet was introduced.

    Long Island Section 2009 Annual Awards Ceremony MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN IEEE Colleagues and Friends: I am delighted to welcome everyone to the 2009 IEEE Long Island Section’s Awards Banquet. This is a special year as we are celebrating the 125th Anniversary of the IEEE. Tonight we will be presenting awards in several categories. This year Long Island members will be receiving national, regional, and local awards. The IEEE uses these awards to recognize its members for their outstanding accomplishments. This year, three Long Island members were awarded the prestigious IEEE Fellow Award. Long Island members were also awarded eight IEEE Region 1 awards. It is clear that the members of the Long Is- land Section continue to demonstrate the excellent quality of their capabilities and character. We will also be taking time tonight to thank the section volunteers. All of us can be proud of the efforts expended by the people on our Executive Committee (ExCOM). The ExCOM members toil for many hours in order to provide such IEEE services including technical lectures and professional development events to the members of the Long Island Section. I would like to thank Jon Garruba and Nick Golas for arranging this year’s Awards Banquet. They have now joined the select group of people who have been Awards Banquet organizers and they now know what it takes to arrange an event like this. It may come in handy when their children are getting married. I would also like to thank the Awards Committee headed by Jesse Taub in their impor- tant task of selecting and advocating tonight’s awardees.
