In an effort to apply the vast expertise of the CAS-Society in the area of circuit and system design to the rapidly growing field of wireless communications, a workshop devoted to this theme will be held in Lucerne, Switzerland, from June 22 nd to 24 th 1998. The workshop will combine presentations by invited experts in the field from academia and industry, with panel and informal discussions. Those interested in participating are invited to contact Dr. M. Helfenstein.
