2007
Why such topic?
I am an engineer
I need maths!
…
We live in anexciting time
everything … business, daily lives
done throughelectronic means
ATM, cellphones,internet, …
They need 1 thing:
SECURITY
Encryption
They’re allMATH EQUATIONS!
How to efficiently implement them in
software and hardware
Hardware is more difficult
(limited resources)
“For any field to move ahead, researchers must try things even when they don’t
quite know what they’re doing”
(Bob Colwell, “All Things Are Connected,”
IEEE Computer, November, 2004)
Engineersmust have “higher
standards”
“Maybe engineers are held to higher standards
because they can be”
(Bob Colwell, “All Things Are Connected,”
IEEE Computer, November, 2004)
Engineers must understand maths
But we’re not getting it
We need“Maths for Engineers”
in what form?
Formal class (too much science?)
Books(stories of digital heroes who go interested in engineering because they read certain
books)
Get together(mixing it up)
Other “bridge”???
