development which must have impact over 100 years. Giving the example of Fourier transform, which
was proposed by Joseph Fourier 150 year ago, he explained feasibility of Fourier transform to resolve
major complex problem in the field of signal processing and communications, circuit designing and
other advance field of engineering and technology.
