Where is technology leading communications?-A review of the february 1969 EWS symposium

Transcriptions of the major papers presented at the Symposium "Where Is Technology Leading Communications?" appear in this issue of the EWS Transactions. John Phillips, Associate Editor of the Transactions, attended all of the sessions and has prepared this paper, in which he views the Symposium in perspective for those who did not attend or whose interest in detail is not sufficient to justify their reading all of the papers in full. Schedule restrictions did not permit Mr. Phillips to read the transcripts of the papers; his paper is based on memory and notes taken during the talks, question-and-answer periods, and discussions at the end of each session.
