Certified by : Sun Microsystems

Location : Madras Institute of Technology (MIT) Campus, Chennai, India

Conducted by : Madras Institute of Technology & Signals and Systems Limited, Chennai, India.

Overview:
During my under graduation, I was very much interested in Digital Signal Processing(DSP) area of study. I had so many dreams on projects related to DSP area. And so I attended this course. This course gave me a practical overview on: DSP hardwares, how to program it & DSP software. But, now I am not working on DSP related stuffs. I remember the words of one of my professor, "It is certainly an achievement, if one could apply or get an opportunity to implement 10% of what is learned in the institution". I often tell myself that whatever I learned on DSP comes under that 90% portion.
