Letter from the Editors-in-Chief
Dear IEEE-Eta Kappa Nu Members and Friends,

The theme of this issue of THE BRIDGE magazine is " Trends in
Communication Networks, " and the content reflects some of the
current engineering problems and work in communication technologies.
Our features discuss methods to prioritize internet traffic, to increase
functionality, and to create dynamic network capability. Such improvements
to internet traffic engineering, internet performance, and internet access
are examples of continued expansion of communication technologies.
Our cover shows NASA's Ingenuity Mars helicopter being prepared for its
mission. With technology developed by Qualcomm Technologies Inc., this
autonomous vehicle highlights the importance of integrated communication
and computing systems-both on Earth and beyond (see page 7 for
more information on the cover). We thank our authors and Qualcomm
Technologies Inc. for their contributions to this issue.
IEEE-HKN was honored twice in the 2021 Annual
APEX Awards for Publication Excellence. THE BRIDGE
magazine received APEX recognition in the Writing
Series Category for the articles by the National
Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in the October
2020 issue. This award is the eighth consecutive
win by the magazine in various categories. Articles
such as these expose our readers to timely technologies and to exciting
career opportunities. IEEE-HKN received its first-ever
Grand Award for the new Identity Guidelines, which
were developed by the IEEE-HKN Public Relations and
Communications Committee. These Chapter resources
