Kohli, Region 10 Director 1973 - 1974 Tata Consultancy Services I was Director of Region 10 in the year 1973-74. All my Predecessors at Region 10 were from Japan for two reasons, one was Region 10 Director was selected by the Board and not elected, and second, most of the technology development was taking place in Japan. I had the opportunity to build IEEE Sections, Councils and Student Chapters all over India. I also helped set up the first IEEE Section in South Korea and Singapore. The most significant contribution from my end was to get my colleagues on the Board to understand that most of the Indians and some from other countries would not find it possible to pay full dues of IEEE. During meeting of the Board in December 1974, the Board passed a Resolution to tie for those to provide discount in dues for those with income below a certain level. This helped the professional in developing countries to become member of IEEE. Naturally as their income level improved they started paying the regular dues. This gave tremendous response to IEEE Membership not only in India but also in Africa and some parts of South America. IEEE is a living organisation. It helps to build professional careers and is a source of knowledge on a continuos basis for members even at my age.

    Long Island Section 2013 Annual Awards Ceremony MESSAGE from the CHAIRMAN IEEE Members and Guests

    Long Island Section 2013 Annual Awards Ceremony MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN IEEE Members and Guests, As Chair of the IEEE Long Island Section, I’m both privileged and honored to welcome each of you to the 2013 IEEE Long Island Section Awards Banquet. We’ve gathered to recognize and honor outstanding engineering achievements of our members and colleagues, and to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the IEEE Long Island Section. For our guests, the Long Island Section of the IEEE, or Institute of Electrical and Elec- tronics Engineers, is the largest engineering society on Long Island, with about 2500 engi- neering, science and other technical professionals. We are a key part of IEEE Region 1, with more than 30,000 members in the Northeastern US. And our ten regions comprise nearly a half million mem- bers globally. The IEEE is the world's largest professional association dedicated to advancing technological innovation and excellence for the benefit of humanity. Our Awards Banquet recognizes outstanding Long Islanders who have made significant engineering contributions. We’ll recognize those Executive Committee volunteers who have made contributions to our Section, including past section officers, as well as officers of technical society chapters, affinity groups and other func- tions and activities, including technical conferences. We’ll also present various Section awards, which are named in honor of key members from our past 60 years, and vetted by our Awards Nomination Committee Chair, Jesse Taub and his committee members. We’ll then present awards at the Regional level. And we are also proud to honor tonight a new IEEE Fellow, a distinction reserved for select IEEE members whose extraordinary accomplishments in an IEEE field of interest are deemed fitting of this prestigious grade.

    Between Discipline and Profession A History of Persistent Instability in the Field of Computer Engineering, circa 1951-2006 by Brent K. Jesiek Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Science and Technology Studies Gary L. Downey (Chair) Janet Abbate Daniel Breslau Timothy W. Luke Michael S. Mahoney (Princeton University) December 13, 2006 Blacksburg, VA Keywords: history, computer, computing, design, technology, engineers, engineering, engineering studies, discipline, profession, instability Copyright 2006, Brent K. Jesiek Between Discipline and Profession A History of Persistent Instability in the Field of Computer Engineering, circa 1951-2006 by Brent K. Jesiek Abstract This dissertation uses a historical approach to study the origins and trajectory of computer engineering as a domain of disciplinary and professional activity in the United States context. Expanding on the general question of “what is computer engineering?,” this project investigates what counts as computer engineering knowledge and practice, what it means to be a computer engineer, and how these things have varied by time, location, actor, and group. This account also pays close attention to the creation and maintenance of the “sociotechnical” boundaries that have historically separated computer engineering from adjacent fields such as electrical engineering and computer science. In addition to the academic sphere, I look at industry and professional societies as key sites where this field originated and developed. The evidence for my analysis is largely drawn from journal articles, conference proceedings, trade magazines, and curriculum reports, supplemented by other primary and secondary sources.
