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

Full Summary:
Manos Tentzeris won the best of session award at the IEEE Electronic Components and Technology Conference. Dr. Tentzeris is a professor in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering.
Emmanouil "Manos" Tentzeris won the best of session award at the IEEE Electronic Components and Technology Conference, held in Las Vegas June 1-4. Dr. Tentzeris is a professor in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Georgia Tech.
His paper, "Inkjet-Printed System-on-Paper/Polymer 'Green' RFID and Wireless Sensors," was chosen for this honor by a majority vote of 150 attendants of the focused RF session.
The work presented in this paper potentially sets the foundation for the first "green" generation of RFID-enabled sensors for biomonitoring, environmental monitoring, energy conservancy, and wearable electronics. It is also the first practical demonstration of nanotechnology, inkjet-printed electronics and sensing on ultra-low cost paper substrates, a critical step for the first "Internet of things" implementations.
Dr. Tentzeris' coauthors on the paper are his graduate students, Rushi Vyas, Vasilis Lakafosis, Anya Traille, Amin Rida, and George Shaker.
