The SPEC is in its third year starting off from SPEC 2006 which the first endeavor in which 36 Electronic projects were displayed. The tradition followed in SPEC 2007 where 46 projects were displayed and attracted more than 800 students and faculty members. in 2008 the event is now expanding its boundaries from Electronic Engineering to Computer Systems, Information Technology, Electrical and Telecommunications Engineering.

We’ve been on hiatus here at NED Nama for a bit. It had to do with our Editor having some catching up to do, and some organizational work to be done.
The good news, as you will see in the immediate future includes:
- NED Alumni Association of Silicon Valley (NEDians SV) is being formalized as an organization.
- NED Alumni Association of Southern California (NEDAASC) is coming to fruition, too.
- Two academic competitions are being held at NED (TechElite08 and SPEC2008), and which we’re hoping to get regular updates on.
- … more and regular information that you, our readers will send in…right?

We had mentioned an event with 3 NEDians in Silicon Valley today. It is being streamed on Wadiwallah.com’s WadiLive! page right now.
Sorry about the late notice.
