JAKARTA: Bambang Riyanto Trilaksono, a lecturer and researcher
at the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB), has won the 2004
Science and Technology Award from the Indonesian Toray Science
Foundation (ITSF) for his research on robust signal procession.

Bambang's new theory on robust signal control analysis and
design beat two other candidates and earned him the award and Rp
60 million in cash.

Besides the award, the ITSF also provided research grants
worth a total of Rp 607 million for 21 young researchers in a bid
to develop the local science and technology sector.

Also recognized on Friday were 10 high school science
teachers, who were given Science Education Awards and Rp 17.5
million in cash each. Four of them will be selected to attend the
International Aichi Expo on education in Japan later this year.
