January 2012 Volume 60, No. 21 Inside This Issue PRODUCED BY THE LONG ISLAND SECTION OF THE INSTITUTE OF ELECTRICAL & ELECTRONIC ENGINEERS Volume 60, No. 21 January 2012 Inside this issue: Chairman’s Message By Susan Frank, Chair IEEE Long Island Section Happy New Year to all Long Island Section members! I hope you enjoyed the holiday season, and that this year brings our profession and community prosperity and success. I would like to thank you for electing LISAT2012 4 me as your new Section Chair. It is an honor and a privilege to walk in the shoes of the distinguished line of IEEE Long Island Section Chairs. See our webpage for the full list. Long Island’s I would like to thank our executive committee members for all the efforts and contributions they’ve made Electronic 6 and continue to make for Long Island. In particular, I thank Nikolaos Golas, for his tireless efforts as History IEEE Long Island Section Chair in 2011, and congratulate him on his election as the Metropolitan Sections Activities Council (METSAC) Chair for 2012/2013 term. I cannot do justice to Nick’s dedication 2012 IEEE Long to the IEEE in a few short lines, but in brief, he deserves much credit for leading us through a banner year, 7 Island Officers as is apparent in the “Long Island Section Report, 2011”, a four page summary. I started my career at AIL, now ITT Exelis, which puts me in the company of many of the engineers in the Nikola Tesla 8-9 defense industry on Long Island. I have a doctorate in computer science from Stony Brook University, article specializing in memory management of visualization systems, and I have shifted toward the cyber-security area of late. I have taught both full-time and part-time at several local colleges. I am open to any sugges- Student Video 10 tions, critiques or advice. Just drop me an e-mail. Competition IEEE’s motto is “Advancing Technology for Humanity.” The engineers that I know do this one way or an- January other all the time as a lifelong endeavor. This year, the Executive Committee goal is to encourage this by Seminars & 11 sponsoring several technical conferences, hosting another Senior Membership night, increasing activities in Lectures our Society Chapters and Affinity Groups, and to hold another milestone event. We also plan to partici- pate in an area Technical Workshop and in the iStep program, designed to strengthen new member 2012 ExCOM enthusiasm. 13 Meeting Dates Everyone is encouraged to get involved with the Long Island Section. Last year there were over 100 tech- 14 nical meetings on Long Island, and we sponsored several local conferences and workshops, which are IEEE USA posted in the PULSE and on the IEEE Long Island Section website. These meetings are a great way to net- work and to stay in tune with the latest breakthroughs in technology. We hold a monthly Executive 2012 IEEE Committee meeting at Telephonics in Farmingdale. The Executive Committee meetings for 2012 are listed 15 Region 1 Awards on the IEEE Long Island Section Calendar on page 13. This is an open meeting that you can attend to see what’s going on in the Section. Send me an email and I will add your name to the attendance list. Long Island Section volunteers are crucial to the success of our Section. If you are interested in volunteering, the Long Consultants 16 Island Section webpage contains a list of current positions. Please look at it and choose a vacant task you Network would like to try; we’ll find you a place. Have a Happy and Healthy New Year.

We are soliciting submis- sions for participation in both the technical program, applications program, and the exhibition, and are interested in pa- pers, presentations, and exhibits that showcase the development and use of technology by local organizations. LISAT 2012 will also provide the opportunity for select student papers to be presented. Undergraduate and graduate students are encouraged to submit papers in an area of their interest or current work. Preliminary acceptance to the technical program will be based on a 300-to-500-word abstract. Authors of accepted abstracts shall be required to provide a six (6) page IEEE standard manuscript for publication in IEEE Xplore, and will be required to make a Power Point TM presentation at the conference. Manuscripts are subject to the LISAT Technical Pro- gram Committee’s peer review and may require revision prior to final acceptance. Important dates for the Technical Program are: Important Dates: Abstracts Due - December 10, 2011 Notification of Accepted Abstracts - December 17, 2011 Manuscripts for publication and copyright releases due - February 24, 2012 Notification of acceptance of manuscripts (subject to final edits) due - March 16, 2012 Presenter registration, final manuscript edits, and Power Point presentations due - April 6, 2012 Detailed instructions on submission, manuscript and presentation templates, and information on the conference are available on the LISAT web site at www.ieee.li/lisat . Manuscript format must agree with requirements specified in the Author’s Kit which will be made available. Each presentation will be 20 minutes long followed by 5 minutes of Q&A. One presenting author for each paper will be allowed to register at a discounted rate. At least one author must register for the conference for each paper/ presentation. If one presenter is presenting multiple papers, then multiple registrations are required. A limited number of tutorial and application presentations which will not be published by the IEEE may also be accepted. LISAT has a strict “No Podium, No Publish” policy. Manuscripts will only be pub- lished in IEEE Xplore if a presentation is made at the Conference. LISAT encourages submissions from all areas of engineering, science, and technology. Past topics have including home- land defense, alternate energy sources, green building technologies, mobile communications, computer and network security, microwave technology, electromagnetic compatibility, mobile ad hoc networking, sensor fusion, antenna sys- tems and processing, radio locationing, radar systems and techniques, climate control, and biomedical engineering.

Volume 60, No. 21 Page 5 Page 6 Long Island’s Electronic History By Jesse Taub, IEEE Long Island Historian The Pulse normally has a monthly article related to history. This month we will look to the future as we continue to celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the IRE. Predictions for 2062 By Jesse Taub In the December Pulse, I presented some predictions for 2012 of advances in electronic engineering that were made in 1962. I then looked at how close they came to being realized. The forecasts had been published in the May 1962 of the Proceedings of the IRE.

  • 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.
