There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

A professor in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Georgia Tech, Dr. Tentzeris and his team will be recognized for their paper, "Design and Fabrication of Ultra-Low Cost Radio Frequency Identification Antennas and Tags Exploiting Paper Substrates and Ink Jet Printing Technology," which appeared in the June 2011 issue of IET Microwaves, Antennas, and Propagation. The paper discusses the first RFID-enabled wireless sensors on paper, plastics, and other flexible/wearable substrates. This technology could set the foundation for the truly scalable Internet of Things and "smart skin" topologies for structural health monitoring systems such as bridges, aircraft, and other large structures. It could also enable the development of wearable and implantable biomonitoring systems and be applied to logistics, tracking, smart energy systems, and food and water quality monitoring using truly recyclable green configurations.
Dr. Tentzeris' coauthors are Giulia Orecchini, Federico Alimenti, Valeria Palazzari, and Luca Roselli–all of the University of Perugia in Italy– and Amin Rida, an ECE Ph.D. graduate of Dr. Tentzeris' research group who now works with Northrop Grumman.
