3rd Award Ceremony for NTT Technical Review Held

The 3rd Award Ceremony for NTT Technical publications (NTT Technical Journal (in Japanese) and NTT Technical Review (in English)) was held on June 12, 2007 at the NTT Head Office in Tokyo. For the NTT Technical Review, one set of outstanding papers was selected from among the Selected Papers and Special Feature Articles and one outstanding paper was selected from among the Regular Papers and Letters for 2006.

Dr. Haruhisa Ichikawa, at that time editorial supervisor of the NTT Technical Review and the director of NTT Science and Core Technology Laboratory Group, presented award certificates and supplementary awards. The award recipients shared interesting stories about their papers, and the authors of the selected papers showed a video (animated line drawings) entitled A.D. 2059 ("Be Watched Over", "Connected", and "Subtly") in the ceremony. The award ceremony was followed by a very amiable get-together between the award recipients and the editors of these publications. The award-winning papers for the NTT Technical Review are listed below.
