Hi All,
Just wondering if any of you are from Purdue ECE dept ?
I still have one year left to go, be nice to know some of you.

thanks

No, but I'm going to Purdue for the Kannert School of Management next year.

I am a PhD student at UF

Lucky you, getting to study with Dr. Datta and Dr. Lundstrom! We just listen to thier lectures on nanohub here

My Dad is actually a Purdue Engineering Alum. Aeronautics, though.

Well I dont take classes with them , I am in Singnal Processing
but yeah I hear they Datta and Lundstorm are pretty famous.

Rush, welcome to Purdue, pretty small town, but its okay.

I'd do anything to take classes under either of those profs - they are doing pathbreaking research in solid-state devices. I literally spend half my research time reading PhD theses from their research group!
Do you go to grad school, ennma?

Yeah I am doing my Masters now, 1 year left to go,
only one thing you have to do, I think, prove them wrong hehe
I bet they will see you.

You can as well ask me to support the earth on my pinky. My advisor (who is an Intel, IEEE fellow - worked in Intel for 12 years as the head of the adv. devices section at Portland, inventor of strained si at Intel) says that these two professors are the best, and they practically are leading the industry in the quest for the next generation of semiconductor device materials. And you ask me to prove them wrong

Let me first understand what they are trying to say

What area of signals/systems do you specialize?

Well you can start by doing a hand stand, and go from there

Well I am more into DSP, Image Processing, or anything that invovles

a significant amount of programming.

Wow your advisor sounds experienced, I heard Datta does not bring

materials to lectures, just a chalk, hahahah.

So what do you concentrate on in the Semi-C world?

My ex-roomate was in Semi-C, he worked with Mohammadi,

My work is primarily on charecterizing the mobility enhancement in strained silicon. I guess you know that strained silicon is being used in all of today's chips from every manufacturer. I have listened to the entire class lecture series (on my prof's suggestion) of Dr. Datta's at the Purdue nanohub website. He is simply outstanding!

There is one professor Dr. T.N. Vijaykumar who teaches architecture at purdue - he is a distant (very distant) cousin of mine

HOlly shi7 really , Vijay is your cousin, man that guy is really intense,
I went to his class once, He lectures as thouhgh he is about devours the 4 front rows.

Yeah, I know ... he keeps churning papers like a machine and has done quite some work in cache architectures.
