"IEEE Women in Engineering Magazine"Debuts
from IEEE-RAS news
(2008/1/29 8:00)
|
IEEE Women in Engineering (IEEE WIE) Magazine, a new publication that will be issued twice a year to IEEE WIE members, has launched its premiere issue. The publication, sent as an interactive PDF file which enables easy navigation through the different sections of the magazine, aims to help attract, retain and sustain women in the engineering and science fields. Its articles integrate engineering subjects with current issues facing society including careers, health care, medicine, law, governance and women’s issues. A print edition will be produced for distribution at symposiums and other events throughout the year. IEEE WIE currently has more than 12,000 members worldwide, with over 176 affinity groups – the largest international professional organization dedicated to promoting women engineers and scientists. Karen Panetta, 2008 IEEE Women in Engineering Committee chair, serves as editor-in-chief. View the publication at www.ieee.org/committee/women/13350.pdf.WIE Magazine

CFP: Scientific Workflow Management and Applications
from IEEE-RAS news
(2007/12/4 8:00)
|
Special Issue of IEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering Call for Papers cientific workflow is a new special type of workflow that often underlies many large-scale complex e-science applications such as climate modeling, structural biology and chemistry, medical surgery or disaster recovery simulation. Compared with business workflows, scientific workflow has special features such as computation, data or transaction intensity, less human interaction, and a large number of activities. Some emerging computing infrastructures such as grid computing with powerful computing and resource sharing capabilities present the potential for accommodating those special features. Submission Deadline: March 31, 2008 For details see: http://www.swinflow.org/si/t-ase.htm .

2008 RAS New Initiative Grants: Tentative CFP
from IEEE-RAS news
(2007/9/26 8:00)
|
As a result of a new IEEE policy, the Robotics and Automation Society anticipates being able to use some of its 2008 budget to fund a modest number of initiatives that would benefit society members in general. We expect approximately $90,000 to be available to support initiatives. We hope to be able to fund several initiatives in the range of $5000 to $24,900. While we cannot make a firm call for proposals at this time because IEEE will not approve our 2008 budget until mid-November, we are making a tentative preliminary call now because the time for proposal preparation after IEEE approves the 2008 budget will be too short. We do expect our budget to be approved. When it is, a final call for proposals will be issued to confirm what is contained in the Tentative Call for Proposals . Members are invited to submit proposals for initiative to the RAS administratorRosalyn Snyder r.g.snyder at ieee.org. In accordance with our Business Plan, proposals will be reviewed by the follo ...
