Editor’s Column We appreciate all of your feedback on our first issue in September, 2006 on “The Technical Impact of Moore's Law.” With the Winter, 2007 issue, we are continuing our new policy of mailing a hard copy of the SSCS News to all 11,500 members. This issue is the first of four that SSCS plans to publish annually (one each in Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall). The goal of every issue is to be a self-contained resource on a select- President: Richard C.
