Joseph Mitola Presents Future of Wireless at IEEE GLOBECOM
2010
Piscataway, NJ, 30 November 2010 - Distinguished Professor Joseph
Mitola, vice president of The Research Enterprise at Stevens Institute
of Technology, will be a featured panelist at IEEE GLOBECOM 2010.
IEEE GLOBECOM, the premiere international conference for
communications and networking technologies since 1957, is expected
to draw over 2,500 attendees. IEEE GLOBECOM 2010 offers a rich
technical program and features high-level speakers and attendees
from industry, academia, and government.

Title of the speech
Dr. Mitola, an IEEE Fellow, will participate in the Wireless
Communications Forum which revolves around the theme, "A Glimpse (general topic
of the Future of Wireless Communication." Three other academics and sentence); other
Fellows pioneering the field of reliable, wireless communications at
session participants
MIT, Harvard, and the University of Texas will also participate in the
discussion. Panelists will share their perspectives on paradigm shifts
looming in the maturing field of wireless communication systems.
With a background in developing advanced, secure communications
systems, Dr. Mitola will focus his remarks on emphasizing the
importance of security in future commercial systems for electric
power, healthcare, and other critical infrastructures.
Speaker’s
background
information as it
relates to the
presentation
In addition to the in-depth technical program, the conference will
feature a keynote address from Dr. Regina Dugan, Director of the
Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). With a mission
to prevent strategic surprise for the United States and its defenses,
DARPA is a critical consumer of the latest communications
technologies and very active in the research and development of new
secure solutions. Dr. Dugan's presence indicates a high-level
awareness of the convergence of commercial and defense
applications for emerging communications and networking protocols.
Dr. Mitola is recognized internationally for his formulation and
groundbreaking research in software-defined radio (SDR) and
cognitive radio systems and technologies. In addition to having
published the first technical paper on software radio architecture in
1991, Dr. Mitola has published widely and taught courses in software
radio in the US, Europe, and Asia. His doctoral dissertation, Cognitive
Radio (KTH, June 2000), created the first architecture for such
autonomous radios, formulating the cognition cycle on which the
sensing and opportunistic use of radio spectrum whitespace is based.
As distinguished professor, Dr. Mitola continues to contribute to
cognitive systems research and education.
Dr. Mitola is the recipient of many awards including the Office of the
Secretary of Defense Medal for Exceptional Public Service, in
recognition of his contributions to DARPA, and the Inaugural Recipient
of the SDR Forum Industry Achievement Award. He has also served
as the editor in chief of the Radio Communications Series IEEE
Communications Magazine 1998-2003.
As vice president for The Research Enterprise at Stevens Institute of
Technology, The Innovation UniversityTM, Dr. Mitola is instrumental to
the strategic alignment of academic research with innovation,
entrepreneurship, teaching, and the creation of strategic global
partnerships. His extensive experience in industry and government,
as well as track record of innovative research in emerging
technologies, are an essential asset to the Technogenesis®
environment of academic entrepreneurship practiced at Stevens.
