Signals in communication theory or two dimensional images in medical imaging or geophysics need to be truncated in both physical and frequency space. These natural operations pose a number of issues and gives rise to a host of mathematical problems ranging from numerical analysis to integrable systems. I will show some old and new results to indicate that there are still lots of gems buried in this very classical field.
