New @ IEEE for Students, November 2005

7. IEEE MAGAZINE EXAMINES HUMAN-MACHINE COMMUNICATION
Speech technology gets the special-focus treatment in the current issue of IEEE Signal Processing Magazine (v. 22, no. 5). The issue contains nine articles around the theme of "Speech Technology in Human-Machine Communication," along with an introduction by the guest editors, who write that "the full potential of speech technology still remains to be uncovered." The table of contents and abstracts for all papers in the current issue can be found in the IEEE Xplore digital library, where subscribers may also access the full text of the articles: the link.

10. NEPTUNE RISING: IEEE SPECTRUM REPORTS
Scientists studying the world's oceans are limited to short trips during times of the year when weather conditions are most favorable, and the underwater instruments they leave behind lack the power and bandwidth to deliver much useful information. But this month, construction begins on an Internet-connected undersea observatory covering hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of sea floor. When the project, called the North-East Pacific Time Series Undersea Networked Experiments (NEPTUNE), is completed in 2007, instruments such as hydrophones, current sensors, high-definition video cameras and even robotic crawlers will deliver data around the clock.
