Ms. Weng majored in English Literature at UC Berkeley and remembers being drawn to a specific theater class during her time, which would lead her to pursue a career in the entertainment industry.

    Computer technology is a very dynamic and changing field. There are always new technologies being developed and adopted on all fronts, which makes it an exciting field to be in. So, in order to catch up with the technology, I choose myself to investigate some of the telecommunication technology specifically voice networking on the computer. Through this project, I hope I can learn everything regarding to voice networking and thus can build a complete voice communication package for the whiteboard system project as an enhancement to the system. In order to accomplish this project, me together with two of my friends Chong Bing Shuang and Lee Chee Ching have joined the whiteboard system project. We have decided to separate the project into 3 parts on hopes of getting more details for the research, which are the whiteboard module, voice communication module and the server module. Chong Bing Shuang will be in charge of the whiteboard module while Lee Chee Ching will be involved in the server module. I myself will be doing the voice communication module. My voice communication module will involved me in on doing research on some history of the voice networking, current data technology or technique used for voice networking, idea of enhancement and so on. After the research, I will be building or enhancing a voice communication module for the whiteboard system as a case study for my research
