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

Topic: "Antennas and RF Sensors: Changing the Way We Live"
This presentation will provide an overview of upcoming wireless applications and challenges. Other areas of discussion include realization of novel materials (metamaterials and crystals, carbon nano-tubes, carbon nano-fibers and body worn devices, printing on polymers, and multiferroics) for RF miniaturization, including antennas that reach the optimum size limits.
