Spring 2007 Semester Recap
WSIL News & Views, Alumni May 23rd. 2007, 3:06pmIt’s hard to believe, but another semester is in the books. I’d just like to update the status of the WSIL.
- In February, Runhua Chen successfully defended his thesis titled “Multiuser MIMO Communication Systems with Cooperative Transmission”. A special congratulations is in order for Runhua and we wish him the best of luck as he transitions into the his new life in the real world.
- Postdoctoal scholar Dr. Seijoon Shim will be returning to Korea after spending over a year at UT. Dr. Shim will always be remembered fondly in Austin, TX for his killer vocals of ’80s era metal rock songs. Good luck to Dr. Shim in his new position…don’t forget to visit us at the WSIL from time to time, Dr. Shim.
- During this semester, 3 new members have joined the WSIL. In January 2007, Takao Inoue returned to UT from Japan to provide the WSIL with a jack-of-all-trades PhD student. Masters students Sanmi Koyejo and Steve Peters also joined the group to pursue their PhDs. Good luck to all of these students in their future at UT.

Great recap. You might want to also mention, Ramya wins best student paper award at VTC 2007. Also, I received tenure ;-).

Of course…congrats are in order for Ramya and Robert on these accomplishments. I might also add that Kaibin won best paper at Globecomm. Altogether a pretty substantial semester for the WSIL.
