That's too hot. Anyway, I learn the "history" of SI.
From my understanding, SI just means digital guys are now getting familiar
with some concepts of microwave technology. Yibing

The temptation is just too great!! The endeavor we call SI now has been
around possibly since the 50's, at major computer companies (or maybe just
at one major computer company). I first developed and taught a
university-level class (at Clemson University) which included "SI" elements
in 1977--it was in fact a class in high speed digital electronics, so it
included the circuit characteristics as well it must in this area. Bill
Blood, thanks for help from your book! In 1983 the situation was becoming
more serious, and here at Arizona we started a class in packaging which
included "SI" elements. In 1984 we received major funding from SRC (which
we still have, nearly 20 years later) to develop the science and algorithms
behind what you now call "SI". Around 200 papers dating back to 1986, and
numerous graduate students(dating back to 1986), have come out of this
effort. Since 1990 or so there are other university programs (but not
very many) which also address this area.
So, there is little new under the sun today, just new names for things.
And, just more fun to be had in a neat field. John Prince
