COLEMAN The days are starting to get longer and, even though it is still definitely hot August nights in central Illinois, there is a feeling that it won’t be long before kids are back in school and the summer is over. On the plus side, that means football season for Americans. On the minus side, it won’t be long before it starts getting cold outside again in the northern hemisphere. It also means that we in the Photonics Society need to collect our thoughts from the spring and begin again to attend seriously to the business of the society. By the time you read this, it will only be a few weeks until the Annual Meeting in Denver. Let’s make a meeting… “The scientific theory I like best is that the rings of Saturn are composed entirely of lost airline luggage.” Mark Russell Not long ago I was standing at the baggage carousel in Ter- minal 5 at London’s Heathrow airport waiting an interminable length of time for my luggage (which did eventually arrive via Saturn) and thinking about technical conferences. What I was really thinking, to begin with, was that the airlines seem to be on a vector that will make them extinct in 20 years. Here is a business that has long relied on traveling profession- als as the main source of revenue. Yet they seem determined to make travelling as unpleasant as possible. The size of cabin crews has been reduced while passenger loads have increased to the bursting point. There is very limited spare capacity in the system so any problem – technical, weather, volcanoes, strikes – causes several days or weeks worth of disruption to the trav- eling public. The food gets ever worse and more expensive, in the air or in the airport. Legroom is reduced, delays are in- creased, and cabin maintenance is minimal. On balance, the airline industry seems to operate as if the supply of passengers is inexhaustible. Meanwhile, it seems apparent that the airline industry doesn’t feel threatened by the technology for virtual meetings. Perhaps they should be. Many of us use Skype or similar soft- ware for individual communications and there are web-based services that host meetings on line. The first few times you use these tools it is strange but it isn’t difficult to get used to them. So let’s go back to technical conferences. Conferences offer many good things including the technical presentations, questions and answers, informal and social interactions, and those unpredictable chance discussions that lead to new ideas and collaborations. But these come at a significant expense – money, time, and ever increasing inconvenience. And, from a sponsoring society’s point-of-view, the biggest part of the fi- nancial cost for attendees goes to third parties – hotels, restau- rants and, you guessed it, the airlines. I wonder if it isn’t time for our society, which has a truly enviable record in leading the way in many forms of technology, to take a hard look at the October 2010 IEEE PHOTONICS SOCIETY NEWSLETTER 3 future of conferences and come up with some new ways of ex- also been to another IEEE Technical Activities Board Meeting ploiting our technologies to allow us to get to the good things where new journals have been approved on the topics of THz while avoiding some of the rest. and photovoltaics. We are in the process of determining what Let me know if you have some thoughts on this subject. I manner of involvement the Photonics Society will have with think the topic might be worth some pointed discussion over these new publications activities. the next year or so.

  • Abstract and Index and Web Discovery Services IEEE Partners
    ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract and Index and Web Discovery Services IEEE Partners Introduction This document is intended to provide a general overview of the abstract and indexing services and web discovery services that take in IEEE content. While this report is intended to provide readers with information on IEEE content indexed and in what service, there are several things to keep in mind: Services identified in this report do not cover everything in IEEE’s Xplore Digital Library either because IEEE does not provide all content to these services, or because only certain content was selected by a partner. Some services add and delete titles regularly, or include only select articles, in order to maintain a database that is relevant to their audience. While IEEE may provide a data feed for a particular subscription package (noted in the tables below), partners are not required to index all content. Most partners update their products at varying intervals and many Abstract and Indexing Services do not include corrected or updated article information. As a result, and given that these services and our agreements with these partners can and do change, readers of this report are encouraged to contact Krista Thom, Publishing Relations Program Specialist at [email protected] with specific questions. Abstract & Indexing Services Abstract and indexing services maintain databases, often subject-specific, which users can search to find relevant content. The data included in these services may be peer-reviewed journals, books, reports, and other types of content. Unlike web scale discovery services, these services collect metadata (including abstracts) from publishers and other organizations into large repositories or indexes.
