Frohman was charged with helping Intel establish a small chip design center in Haifa, which at the time, was Intel’s first outside the U.S. The rest, as the cliché goes, is history. In a little over a generation, the Israeli semiconductor industry has grown to now employ more than 20,000; annual revenues are about US $5 billion. Intel, for instance, now has about 9,900 employees in Israel and is planning to invest almost $6 billion in upgrading its Kiryat Gat fab facility. In fact, since 1974, Intel has invested about $10.8 billion in the Israeli semiconductor industry. “We’ve exported goods worth $35 billion most from our production centers in Kiryat Gat and Jerusalem,” said Intel VP and Intel Israel CEO Maxine Fassberg. Sol Gradman is editor of TapeOut, a publication covering the semiconductor industry, and also chairs ChipEx, the country’s largest annual semiconductor/microelectronics conference. Gradman said Israel’s semiconductor industry today comprises three types of companies – fabless, multinational design centers, and fabs.

HOWEVER, due to the fact that the 1969 text is no longer in publication, complicated by the fact that these copies are forty-four (44) years old and in a very fragile condition, this PDF version of the text was created for student use in the Department of Mathematics and Science. - Professor Charles Rubenstein, January 2013 Man of High Fidelity: Edwin Howard Armstrong EDWIN HOWARD ARMSTRONG Was the last – and perhaps the least known – of the great American Inventors. Without his major contributions, the broadcasting industry would not be what it is today, and there would be no FM radio. But in time of mushrooming industry and mammoth corporations, the recognition of individual genius is often refused, and always minimized. This is the extraordinary true story of the discovery of high fidelity, the brilliant man and his devoted wife who battled against tremendous odds to have it adopted, and their long fight against the corporations that challenged their right to the credit and rewards. Mrs. Armstrong finally ensured that right nearly ten years after her husband’s death.

    Tesla's Connection to Columbia University by Dr. Kenneth L. Corum

    * Tesla’s Connection to Columbia University by Kenneth L. Corum and James F. Corum, Ph.D. “The invention of the wheel was perhaps rather obvious; but the invention of an invisible wheel, made of nothing but a magnetic field, was far from obvious, and that is what we owe to Nikola Tesla.” Professor Reginald Kapp, 1956 INTRODUCTION The Electrical Engineering curriculum at Columbia University, though not the first in the US, is one of the oldest and most respected EE programs in the world. From the beginning, a conscientious effort was made to base it on a foundation of science. It has been guided by the specific philosophy stated by Professor Michael Pupin: “Professor Crocker and I maintained that there is an ‘electrical science’ which is the real soul of electrical engineering.” Arguably the most stunning and significant lecture in modern history was presented one spring evening, more than a century ago, at Columbia University. The wealth of nations turned on its merits. Weighing on the balances would be our vast cities, civilization, and quality of life. But, what was it? . .Whatever it was, its impact has been as momentous for the progress and prosperity of civilization as the invention of the wheel! . It was Tesla’s great discovery and analysis of the rotating magnetic field, and a means for the electrical distribution of energy.1 As a result of the analysis presented in this lecture, the great Falls of Niagara would soon be harnessed for the benefit of mankind and launch civilization into the “Electromagnetic Century”. The Engineering Council for Professional Development (now called ABET) has defined “Engineering” as “that profession which utilizes the resources of the planet for the benefit of mankind”.

    Dov Frohman Looking for Unanticipated, Random Opportunities!

    DOV FROHMAN LOOKING FOR UNANTICIPATED, RANDOM OPPORTUNITIES! INTERVIEW & STORY BY CHERYL PRUSS Many of you may remember retired Intel VP Dov Frohman from when he managed Intel Israel. His story, however, includes the horrors of the holocaust, working at Fairchild with Moore, Noyce and Grove, inventing the EPROM, teaching in Ghana, authoring a book on leadership and more. Here is just a glimpse of his fascinating life. THE EARLY YEARS rom the beginning, Dov Frohman has lived an eventful life. He F lost his parents to the holocaust, after they made sure he was safely hidden away by a Calvinist family in Holland. Later he spent time in orphanages for children whose parents had died in the war, before being adopted by relatives. Growing up in Tel Aviv, he served in the Israeli army prior to starting his advanced education. After graduating with a degree in Electrical Engineering from the Technion, Dov traveled to the United States to study for his masters and Ph.D. at the University of California, Berkeley. Berkeley in 1963, with it’s free speech movement and demonstrations, was an overwhelming experience and influence for a kid from Israel. In his book, Leadership the Hard Way, Dov summarized the impact this way: “What I learned at Berkeley is that unless you are prepared to see things differently and go against the current, you are unlikely to accomplish anything truly important. And to go against the current, you have to be something of an outsider, living on the edge, a member of a small but vibrant counterculture”.

The inaugural IEEE Vision, Innovation, and Challenges Summit presents a unique opportunity to meet, mingle, and network with peers and some of the top technology “giants” in the world. We have created a dynamic one-day event to showcase the breadth of engineering by bringing innovators, visionaries, and leaders of technology to the Silicon Valley area to discuss what is imminent, to explore what is possible, and to discover what these emerging areas mean for tomorrow. The day sessions will look to the future of the industry and the impact engineers will have on serving the global community. The Summit’s activities culminate with this evening’s IEEE Honors Ceremony Gala. Tonight’s awards ceremony truly refl ects the universal nature of IEEE, as the visionaries and innovators we celebrate herald from around the world. We are proud of the collective technical prowess of our members and appreciate the rich diversity of the engineering, scientifi c, and technical branches in which our colleagues excel. At IEEE, we are focused on what is next—enabling innovation and the creation of new technologies.
