Abstract
In this seminar we
will present the utility of the Java-DSP (J-DSP) software tool in several
signal processing related areas. J-DSP (http://
jdsp.asu.edu) has
been developed from the ground up for on-line education.
The software is based
on an object-oriented graphical user interface (GUI) and enables on-line
interactive simulations of DSP systems. Currently J-DSP supports the one credit
laboratory portion of the senior-level DSP course at Arizona State University. Recently the
functionality of J-DSP has been extended for possible use in signals and
systems, communications, image processing and controls courses. In
addition, several new functions have been developed to support some advanced
DSP applications such as speech coding and recognition, and spectral
estimation. Some of these tools are being further enhanced and customized
to demonstrate the use of DSP in emerging research areas such as signal
processing genomics and sensor networks. Finally since SMU is highly involved in
introducing modern technologies to high school students through the infinity
project, we will present a series of J-DSP tools that can be used to enable
teachers to introduce high school students to some of the basics of DSP and multimedia.

Andreas Spanias is Professor in the Department of Electrical
Engineering Fulton School of Engineering and associate director of the ASU
Arts, Media, and Engineering (AME) program at Arizona State
University (ASU). His research interests are in the areas of adaptive
signal processing and speech processing. His has lead research projects funded
by Intel, Motorola, and the National Science Foundation. In his work with
Intel Coproration he contributed to the development
of architectures with signal processing capabilities and received an award from
Intel for "his leadership and contributions to the development of the
Intel 60172 processor architecture." He recently published refereed
papers in Perceptual Coding of Digital Speech and Audio, Adaptive Beamforming, Genomic Signal Processing, and DSP Java
tools. Andreas Spanias is involved with the ASU
Arts, Media, and Engineering (AME) center where he heads a
program on sound localization for smart stages using microphone arrays.
He is involved extensively in IEEE scientific activities. He has also served as
Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing and as General
Co-chair of the 1999 International Conference on Acoustics Speech and Signal
Processing (ICASSP-99) in Phoenix. He served as the IEEE
Signal Processing Vice-President for Conferences and the Chair of the
Conference Board. Andreas Spanias is co-recipient of
the 2002 IEEE Donald G. Fink paper prize award and was elected Fellow of the
IEEE. He is appointed Distinguished lecturer of
the IEEE SPS for 2004
