Biography

Bede Liu received the B.S. degree in E.E. from National Taiwan University and the M.E.E. and D.E.E. degrees from the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn. Prior to joining the Princeton Faculty in 1962, his industrial associations included Bell Laboratories, Allen B. DuMont Laboratory, and Western Electric Company. He has been a Visiting Professor at the National Taiwan University (Taipei), Jiao Tong University (Shanghai) and Academia Sinica (Beijing). He was the IEEE President of the Circuits and Systems Society (1982) and a member of the IEEE Board of Directors (1984, 1985). He received the IEEE Centennial Medal (1984) and the Millennium Medal (2000), the ASSP Society Technical Achievement Award (1985) and the Society Award (2000), the CAS Society Education Award (1988), the Video Technology Best Paper Awards (1994 and 1996) and the Mac Van Valkenburg Award (1997).
