The inaugural IEEE Vision, Innovation, and Challenges Summit presents a unique opportunity to meet, mingle, and network with peers and some of the top technology “giants” in the world. We have created a dynamic one-day event to showcase the breadth of engineering by bringing innovators, visionaries, and leaders of technology to the Silicon Valley area to discuss what is imminent, to explore what is possible, and to discover what these emerging areas mean for tomorrow. The day sessions will look to the future of the industry and the impact engineers will have on serving the global community. The Summit’s activities culminate with this evening’s IEEE Honors Ceremony Gala. Tonight’s awards ceremony truly refl ects the universal nature of IEEE, as the visionaries and innovators we celebrate herald from around the world. We are proud of the collective technical prowess of our members and appreciate the rich diversity of the engineering, scientifi c, and technical branches in which our colleagues excel. At IEEE, we are focused on what is next—enabling innovation and the creation of new technologies.

Finally, based on the position and its posteriori probabilities, which is the soft-reliability estimate error-type, the scheme performs the error correction.

  • Light to Serve As an Effective Wireless Communications Medium
    Notes from the editor – Light to Serve as an Effective Wireless Communications Medium By Saraju P. Mohanty First, I share some good news. I came to know recently that the University Grant Commission (UGC) India lists IEEE CE Magazine as an approved Journals: http://www.ugc.ac.in/journallist/. This is means that CEM is considered as an approved venue to publish research from India which will count towards various academic milestones including student's Ph.D. degrees and faculty promotions. So, I am positive that CEM will receive more, quality submissions from India and will be driver of membership growth of CESoc. UGC is the statutory body of the Government of India for the coordination, determination and maintenance of standards of university education in India. The CE magazine is indexed in Clarivate Analytics (formerly IP Science of Thomson Reuters) and we are hoping to hear about the impact factor soon along with many other IEEE periodicals which were indexed same time. The CEM magazine is also indexed in Computer Science bibliography database called DBLP. In 2016, The CE Magazine has been named the winner in the Regional 2016 STC Technical Communication Awards - Award of Excellence! The STC Technical Communication Awards is one of the most coveted award in technical communications. Also in 2013, CE magazine won an Apex Grand Award for excellence in writing. In summary, CE magazine is in a very positive trend and will continue providing excellent service to its readers and CE community. A moment of pride for the CE Society. Kees Schouhamer Immink received the 2017 IEEE Medal of Honor--IEEE's highest award--on 25 May at The Palace Hotel, San Francisco, Callifornia, USA.

  • Pearson Codes Arxiv:1509.00291V2 [Cs.IT] 29 Sep 2015
    Pearson Codes Jos H. Weber∗ Kees A. Schouhamer Imminky and Simon R. Blackburnz February 26, 2018 Abstract The Pearson distance has been advocated for improving the error performance of noisy channels with unknown gain and off- set. The Pearson distance can only fruitfully be used for sets of q-ary codewords, called Pearson codes, that satisfy specific prop- erties. We will analyze constructions and properties of optimal Pearson codes. We will compare the redundancy of optimal Pear- son codes with the redundancy of prior art T -constrained codes, which consist of q-ary sequences in which T pre-determined refer- ence symbols appear at least once. In particular, it will be shown that for q ≤ 3 the 2-constrained codes are optimal Pearson codes, while for q ≥ 4 these codes are not optimal. Key words: flash memory, digital optical recording, Non- Volatile Memory, NVM, Pearson distance. arXiv:1509.00291v2 [cs.IT] 29 Sep 2015 ∗Jos H.

This leakage may result in a shift of the offset or threshold voltage of the memory cell.
