Focus on education [Editor´s Remarks]

Welcome to another exciting year of IEEE Computational Intelligence Magazine! Four carefully-crafted issues of CIM in 2008 were packed with the inspiring and far-reaching reads from our contributing experts in chosen areas of computational intelligence. Constrained by a limited page budget, we managed to present you with only a glimpse of this technical field and its promise and future for many years to come. As we enter the end-of-the-year holiday celebrations, I want to take this opportunity to thank our editor at IEEE, Jessica Barrague. Without her tireless efforts, I would not survive in this business. After all, I am only an engineering professor and a volunteer. What a combination of two distinct identities! On behalf of the CIM Editorial Board, I want to send my best wishes to each and every one of you for a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. It is YOU who make this adventure any more meaningful.
