WELCOME MESSAGE:
Open Welcome Message in PPT Format

Welcome to the First International Conference on Electronics
and Information Technology Convergence (EITC) sponsored by the
IEEE and KIEE. It is a great pleasure and privilege for us to
hold this conference.
In recent years, electronics and the information technology
are evolving in a tremendous speed. The technologies sometimes
converge creating new paradigms. The circuit technology evolves
into the VLSI, which enables us to store a great amount of
information in a single chip. The advanced circuitry technology
together with digital expression of information results in
today’s personal computers and creates a new field of signal
processing called the electro-information paradigm. The
integration of the microwave technology, optical electronics
together with circuit technology enables the evolution of the
modern data communication and network technology, which gives
the birth of today’s web technology and distributed computing.
In the course of such evolution, merging and convergence, a lot
of applications beneficial to human life are created. In
summary, the trend in the modern technical world indicates that
inter-discipline among related fields is becoming important.
There is a strong need to establish a stage for researchers to
exchange their novel research ideas and experiences in this
area. This motivates us to initiate this International
Conference on Electronics and Information Technology
Convergence. We hope that the event will encourage researchers
to make contributions in their field of expertise, which in turn
contributes to other technological fields.
One good news is that the EITC could be supported by the BK21
program, which is an advanced education program (BK21) of Korean
government, as well as IEEE and KIEE,. We believe that both of
the EITC and the BK21 program would get great benefit through
this cooperation.
We appreciate your participation and hope that you experience
a fruitful interaction with other researchers.
Wish you all the best.
