Preface

I would like to thank Professors Gerald Cain of MathWorks, UK, and Franco Gori, Dept. of Physics, University of Roma, for serving on the editorial board for the past four years.

It is my pleasure to welcome our new editors: Professors Mahmoud Annaby, Dept. of Mathematics, Faculty of Science, Cairo University, Egypt; John L. Brown, Dept. of Electrical Engineering, Pennsylvania State University, USA; Wally Madych, Dept. of Mathematics, University of Connecticut, Storrs, USA; Mirek Pawlak, Dept. of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Manitoba, Canada; P. P. Vaidyanathan, Dept. of Electrical Engineering, California Institute of Technology, USA; and Gianluca Vinti, Dept. of Mathematics and Informatics, University of Perugia, Italy.

It is also my pleasure to announce that our journal is moving very well as heard from many experts in our field. This includes the quality of the articles as well as that of the publication.

I would like to thank each author of the articles in this, the previous, and the futures issues. Many thanks go to our dedicated reviewers who make it possible to publish our journal in good time.

A number of our members of the editorial board have volunteered to invite experts to write quality and expository articles in the very relevant topics of sampling theory and its applications.

Last, I may remind the reader that institutional and personal subscriptions to our journal constitute its main form of support. However, they are still not coming close to sufficiently supporting the journal.
