[]The technology we use, and rely on, in our everyday lives–including computers, radios, video devices, cell phones, smart connected devices and more–is enabled by signal processing, a branch of electrical engineering that models and analyzes data representations of physical events as well as data generated across multiple disciplines. Hence, signal processing is at the heart of our modern world. It’s at the intersection of biotechnology, entertainment, and social interactions. It enhances our ability to communicate and share information. Signal processing is the science behind our digital lives. This is a 2 hour overview of this subject - inspired by a similar effort done in past years called "Introduction to Embedded Systems" by the Computer Society chapter of SE Michigan, aimed at students of all STEM disciplines but whose prime areas were not embedded systems. The idea is to share and gain appreciation for the topic.

[]Information theory is the mathematical study of the quantification, storage, and communication of information. The field was established and formalized by Claude Shannon in the 1940s, though early contributions were made in the 1920s through the works of Harry Nyquist and Ralph Hartley.
