Abstract :
The world has advanced dramatically in the last century, with exceptional advances in electronics evident during the past several decades. This advancement has been made possible by brilliant engineers, designers and inventors around the world whose interest and passion for engineering and science have driven them to do great things. We are grateful to them for adopting engineering as a career and for devoting their life to benefit humanity with their creations and inventions, and while there are often monetary rewards for their work, the rest of us are the real beneficiaries in that we have new devices and machines that help make life more comfortable, sustainable, and enjoyable as well.
