212 Motion Rubaai/Pubs Dept. Motion The Publications Department forwards a motion to increase the 2014 page budget from 476 to 536, an increase of 60 pages for IAS Magazine.
Background The allotted page budget for the year amounts to about 476 which exceed the number of approved papers that the EiC has already received. Factors that consistently increased the page count for each issue include increased coverage of chapter news, student activities, and history articles. Hence, the Publications Department is proposing that the page budget be increased to 536 for the rest of the year. We suspect that this will also have to be maintained into 2015. This will require the Board's approval since it will affect budget to finance the production of the additional pages, but in the long run results in additional income to the Society.

Date: June 05, 2014 To: IAS Board Members
Special Report On Change in PSPB Rules About
Archiving Papers in Xplore
June 15, 2014
Ahmed Rubaai, Chair IAS Publications Dept Louie Powell, ScholarOne Administrator Carl Speck, Transactions Editor-in-Chief Lanny Floyd, Magazine Editor-in-Chief
Change in PSPB Rules On Archiving Papers in Xplore
The plan that we have proposed to address this change involves ensuring two things:
1. For papers that are submitted on a post-presentation basis, require that papers be modified or extended beyond any previous conference version.
2. For papers that are submitted on a pre-presentation basis (to REPC, CIC, I&CPS, PPIC, PCIC or the Annual Meeting), require that conference organizers :
i. Complete their reviews of submitted papers before archiving the respective conference
records, and ii. Adopt the policy that papers that are approved for publication in Transactions or the
Magazine without revision be withheld when those conference records are archived.
• The first point is likely to be a non-issue because many authors (and many of our own IAS guys involved in post-presentation submissions) believe that there is already a requirement that conference papers be revised or extended before they are submitted for peer review
• The second point offers a somewhat greater opportunity for concern. The Publications Department has been watching fairly closely this year to see how difficult it would be for committees to complete their reviews in time to make the decision to withhold ‘approved’ papers from their Xplore submission. At this point several IAS-sponsored conferences are behind us:
Change in PSPB Rules On Archiving Papers in Xplore
REPC – this conference is likely to be the most affected by the new policy and our planned way to address it. While they do pre-presentation submissions, they have historically not actually started their review process until after the conference. It may be necessary to work closely with them to help them adjust to the change in process. PPIC – this conference won’t take place until late June, but we are reasonably confident that normally the planned response to the new PSPB policy won’t create a problem. PPIC awards their prize paper awards in the last session of the conference, and bases that selection in part on the reviews in S1M. Hence, they have an internal need to get those reviews completed quickly, and historically, this has meant that they have had the shortest submission-to-first decision time in IAS. So barring some individual conflict that prevents decisions from being reported immediately after the conference they won’t have a problem. I&CPS – decisions either have been or shortly will be recorded on most of the papers presented at the conference (last week). But this conference did highlight two areas of concern: 1. Papers for which the reviews are delayed because reviewers do not respond promptly with reviews.
This is an ongoing area of concern. 2. Papers for which the assigned TCPRC is also an author, and for which the process of reassigning
the paper to an alternate TCPRC doesn’t take place as quickly as it should. This is a fairly unusual problem, but it is also one that we can very easily predict.
Change in PSPB Rules On Archiving Papers in Xplore
ESW – historically, this conference has not done pre-presentation submissions, so the timing of reviews relative to the point when the conference record is archived won’t be an issue. However, there could be some pushback from authors of this conference that they can’t practically expand their papers beyond what was presented at the conference. So in this instance, implementation of the policy may require that the Electrical Safety Committee move to pre-presentation submissions. CIC – Last year CIC followed the now-abandoned PCIC process of requiring that decisions regarding publication of papers be endorsed by their Executive Subcommittee at a mid-year meeting, and that practice could conflict with the desire to report decisions more quickly. However, this year they appear to have abandoned the Executive Subcommittee endorsement requirement; they reported decisions on all of their papers a week or so following this year’s CIC conference. That means that they will probably not have any difficulty with the planned approach.

• Scheduled for San Jose, CA, September 20-24, 2009
CHANGES FOR 2009 (from Bruno Presentation)
• New format for IAS Annual Meeting – Refocus on continuous education for members – Emphasis on tutorials and workshops
• This did not happen beyond perhaps 2009 in Houston where a lot of industrial tutorial/training was available
• Sessions poorly attended, and tutorials also • A lot large Student attendance thru CMD

Components Annual Meeting (2009+) • Time of year – Early October
• Participation of the Technical Committees of the MSDA, PI, and ICPS Departments – Committee meetings
• Council Meeting – part of by-laws • Chapters Workshop – Student Paper Session(s) • Presentation of Society Awards (Kaufmann Award,
Outstanding Achievement, Distinguished Service, Outstanding Young Member, Transactions Prize Papers, Magazine Prize Papers, Chapters)
• Presentation to new IEEE Fellows (those who choose Annual Meeting as venue)
Current Annual Meeting • Continue as is – a collection of “small” technical
committee sessions co-located – is this a sustainable model?
• Change format again to revitalize – ideas? • Co-locate with ECCE (perhaps every other year?)
– Only a few weeks apart in dates – Brings all IAS to one location
• IAS level Awards with peers • Council meeting with all IAS • Student support • ECCE has exposition which is good for other committees to
perhaps tack onto • ECCE already a “conference center” size conference

Thursday: Tutorials Sessions Technical Sessions Awards Lunch IAS Executive Board Meeting ½ day
Some issues to work out…. • Room rentals in convention center (in Denver was almost zero due to exhibit space
rental and likely the same elsewhere • Room rate for hotel nights – charge to ECCE is to keep below $200 just like annual
meeting, exploring second tier cities now as income not great: – ECCE 2014 Chair Pittsburgh PA Ayman EL-refaie – ECCE 2015 Chair Montreal CA Liuchen Chang – ECCE 2016 Chair (Salt Lake City UT, Tentatively) John Shen – ECCE 2017 Chair (Cincinnati, OH, Tentatively) In Process – ECCE 2018 Chair Portland OR Avoki Omekanda Aldo Boglietti
• Separate IAS registration gets access to exhibit area? • Free lunch on Tuesday by vendors in Exhibition area – how gets paid in that case? • Zucker lunch to all attending students? • Banquet – put together? • Awards lunch – extended time?
Governance • Board Composition
– Establish a new Board position to focus on new technologies that could disrupt our technical committees
• Technical Committees – Set up a technical committee incubator to identify, nurture and
address new areas of technology not currently covered – Develop specific roles for active student/younger members in
technical committee operations – Provide repository of best practices and tools for technical
committees to use to save time, streamline operations and learn from each other

Today’s Structure
• Society Officers • Operating Departments
– Awards, Chapters & Membership, Education, Meetings, Publications, Standards
• Technical Departments – MSDAD, Process Industries, IPCSD, I&CPS
• Standing Committees – Constitution and Bylaws, Inter Society Cooperation,
Long Range Planning, Nominating, • Members at Large
CMD Department
• Current CMD department is the largest operating department
• Role of Chair is pivotal and really a full time job for a volunteer
• Should this group somehow be split or reconfigured to make it manageable for a volunteer (more Board positions) or just re-structure internally?

Sorry for the delay.
I just wanted to update you on the reason for my inquiry.
The IEEE has a portal up that is dedicated to information on the Smart Grid. The purpose is to give the layman acentral website to go to when they have questions about Smart Grid. Even though the site was begun by thePES, the website is now a general IEEE site with some strong support from IEEE PES. I am the IAS rep on thesteering committee for the web site/entity called the IEEE Smart Grid Portal.
The website now needs content, the content should be of informational nature and it should not be technicallyintense, like transaction papers. the idea is to have contents like webinars, white papers, updates and shortpieces on the ongoing research in Smart Grids.
My job right now is manifold:
Put together an IAS contribution to the monthly issue of the Smart Grid portal, this would be informationalarticles reporting on research from IAS on smart gridsUpdate the Smart Grid community on Smart Grid related conferences, tutorials, or short courses that arebeing sponsored by IASContribute web link from IAS on anything having to do with Smart Grid.
We are just getting started so none of the societies are well organized in regard to the smart grid, I am reachingout to you all since you are my best resources in regard to the IAS activities on the Smart Grid. I have alreadygiven them the ECCE website and conference information, any other conferences that have technical contentsconcerning micro grids, smart grids, etc. would be welcomed.
I would like to organize an IAS themed Smart Grid issue for November so I would like to get some names ofprominent authors from IAS to contribute articles in this endeavor.
Please feel free to ask any questions you may have.

Executive Summary
Since its inception in 2011, the IEEE Electric Vehicles Community (EVC) has built an impressive participant following of cross-societal members as well as external contributors and strategic partnerships. The Initiative has been praised as a "think-tank of scientists, engineers, academics, practitioners and lay people drawn together with one common passion: to make Transportation Electrification a reality”.
Through conferences, publications, one-on-one discussions, external partnering’s, social media messaging, and the Transportation Electrification web portal, the EVC has sought to accelerate the development and implementation of new technologies while encouraging the dissemination of knowledge. The EVC’s primary purpose is to share that knowledge in the spirit of providing a neutral forum of exchange to advance electrification of components, manufacturing methodology, communications, and autonomous operation of all manner of electric vehicles available today and in the future.
Now in its third initiative year, the EVC is preparing to transition out of the Future Directions group to be housed within a technical consortium of nineteen (19) IEEE societies, councils, and IEEE Operating Units – the genesis of a new Technical Community, IEEE-TEC.
This summary business plan represents the agreements and interests of that consortium. Its purpose clarifies a vision and mission for the new entity, reports on an internal and external review, maps out a governance model, addresses staffing, proposes services and programming, marketing, media and communications planning, and seeks to demonstrate the financial strength of this consortium to assure a seamless migration and future sustainability.
Of those engaged societies, a “core” of seven (Core-7) have come forward to form a leadership body to meet the challenge of providing technical expertise, oversight of the finances, programming, services, and governance of the TEC.
The Core-7 is comprised of the following societies: Power Electronics (PELS), Industry Applications (IAS), Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSS), Vehicular Technology (VTS), Power and Energy (PES), Consumer Electronics (CES), and Industrial Electronics (IES).
The remaining twelve IEEE Operating Units and societies would form an affiliate level, serving as technical sponsors, for the purpose of input and collaboration across multiple overlaps within any and all related Societies’ fields of interest.
The affiliate IEEE Operating Units and societies (see proposed governance model) will assuredly benefit from a practical coordination and alignment of resources and opportunities via an integrated organizational structure for continuing collaboration, programming coordination, and cross-society engagement.
Transportation Electrification is a key technological growth field filled with humanitarian, social, and economic overtones and the potential to assist IEEE to further its own over-arching mission to “Advance Technology for the Benefit of Humanity”.
The establishment of the IEEE Transportation Electrification Community will provide a mechanism to steward these altruistic and financial opportunities while helping to define “one
IEEE” and give one voice for Transportation Electrification external to IEEE.
Page 4
Vision
To provide a neutral forum of exchange and collaboration to build professional networks, foster relationships, and encourage participation among the Transportation Electrification community worldwide.
Mission
Sustain an internal community for IEEE affiliated professionals and our external strategic partners, researchers and industry leaders working at the intersection of Transportation Electrification with Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Sciences, Reliability, and Safety.
Strategic Points and Affirmation of Purpose:
TEC will be the “one voice” for Transportation Electrification external to IEEE
Formalize ongoing efforts to assure and support the TE community that the IEEE is committed to being a major influencer, technical knowledge repository, and standards leader for the electric vehicle and transportation industry globally.
Provide a platform to innovate, create and collaborate on all aspects of transportation electrification
Solidify IEEE as a force for driving the transformation for clean, efficient, connected and safe transportation
Page 5
Internal Assessment
The Core-7 Societies began engaging in both individual and group meetings prior to the 2013 Fall TAB meetings in New Brunswick, NJ. Each society was often represented by their presidential leadership or appointee. Discussion centered on the advantages of a shared framework and the need to support the viability of sovereign societal programming, leveraging existing shared programming such as conferences, publications, educational service and product offerings.
To better understand the combined strength and proficiency of this cadre, please refer to the following data and analysis.
Financials
The POWER of one-IEEE – Core-7 Fast Facts:
Combined, the Core-7 has:
$47,500,000+ in total reserves
$8,366,200 Annual Surplus ($1,195,171 average per Society)
ROI average of 35%, Operating Ratio average of 29% with investment income
Over 58,000 members in 580 Chapters
71 Financially (co)sponsored Conferences yielding o $17,245,000 in Revenues o $5,464,000 in combined Surplus o $780,657 at a Society average o $78,058 overall average per conference per Society
63 Technically Co-sponsored Conferences
66 Journals, Transactions, Magazines, and Newsletters *USD
Page 6
Membership One concept discussed during the formulation of the TEC, and one that the Steering Committee would address more fully, was that of a supporting “cross Society membership agreements to stimulate and grow membership within the TEC Core-7 societies. This agreement may follow the form of a typical MGA “cross-sell” campaign where two or more societies agree to subsidize or discount societal membership dues to individuals of one (home) society – while joining another society for further networking, career, leadership opportunities, and educational advantage. Such cross-Society Membership agreements could increase dues revenues, assist retention, and further bridge collaborative efforts between the Societies and other Operating Units increasing the pool of volunteering opportunities as well. Here is an analysis of the Core 7’s current membership statistics as of April 2014.
Publications
Page 7
Conferences
From every (ad)vantage point, whether discussing the Core-7’s individual or combined financial strength, program and services diversity, or sheer membership to draw expertise, inputs, and contributions from, this multi-societal team represents the “engine” within IEEE Technical Activities that can perpetuate and help Transportation Electrification thrive and grow organically now – and for years to come.
We believe that as a group we will help lead this new Community to represent and build IEEE’s influence, financial sustainability, and global brand.

External Assessment
Considerations:
Global Partners – in-place, opportunities, challenges Existing Conferences and Publications Economic and Political Environment Scan
Global Partners
The possible partners with whom we already have some contact or relationship with are: Avere, CES, Boeing, EADS, Airbus, Rolls Royce, Alsthom, Siemens, BAeSystems, Selex, Bosch, ABB, Jaguar-Land Rover, Mercedes, Mercedes High Performance Engines (F1), Thales, Toyota, Audi, GM, Google, Ford, Chrysler, Caterpillar, John Deere.
Also, we identified a number of companies where it was not known whether there was an existing contact, but the list below represents further potential external potential partners: Imtech, Tesla, Bombardier, Honda, BMW, Renault, Fiat, Clean Fleets, Nissan, Mitsubishi
Existing Conferences, Publications, and Major Activities
The main non-IEEE conferences that were identified were: WEVS (World Electric Vehicle Symposium) that is held every year and rotates between Europe/North America and Asia. The other conferences known about in this space are ECPE, ITEC.
There is also the SAE Convergence conference, and other non-automotive conferences include IEEE Aerospace – which does have quite a space emphasis (e.g. PW is an IEEE Aerospace session organizer for “Power Electronics in Space Applications”), ESTS (IEEE Electric Ship Technologies Symposium) which is a PELS/IAS/PES conference, PlugBoat – World Electric Boat and Hybrid Summit, Aerotech Congress, Aerospace Systems, IEEE Electric Ship Propulsion and Electric and Hybrid Marine World Expo.
The IEEE International Future Energy Challenge (IFEC) is a major biannual student competition sponsored by many of the Core 7 societies with a running emphasis on electric transportation topics. The IEEE PELS Solar Splash is a related electric boat student competition.
Economic and Political Environment
Initiatives which were identified from a research perspective were Clean Sky (which is now moving into a new phase called Clean Sky 2), an EU funded project in close collaboration with Airbus. Cars 2020 and also Horizon 2020 (EU Research).
It is easy to agree that Transportation Electrification is a key growth segment – both academically and in industrial product and services development. TE crosses over cultural boundaries and is a major source for collaborative agreement between countries globally.
IEEE’s mission of “Advancing Technology for Humanity” will find a strong contributing component within the new IEEE-TEC and its multi-disciplined global member community.

Analysis by Industry
We divided the potential field into four main areas, Automotive, Aerospace, Marine, and Heavy Transport. Each field was then analyzed to identify potential opportunities for additional activities by TEC. An additional area is light-scale personal transport, including city vehicles, scooters, and other transportation modes making large-scale inroads globally, for which we will seek input / existing relationship advantage from our Core-7 Steering Committee and Affiliate partners.
1) Automotive
The field is well served with the major WEVS conference (which is several thousand strong), incorporating both a conference and an expo. We already have the ITEC conference (conference and expo in the USA, Conference in Asia) and so our conclusion was that there was probably not much more that we could do from a conference perspective that would have major impact. Specifically, corporate training and workshops are an opportunity here for new products and service offerings to support TEC. The IFEC is an important opportunity to engage with student teams. The Community also has the opportunity to be the lead IEEE entity in other regional and global transportation student competitions such as the Formula Electric and Solar Challenge competitions.
While there are a number of conferences in this field including IEEE Aerospace, Aerospace Systems, and the Aerotech congress, we felt there was good scope for something with a power electronics and transportation electrification focus in this space. One suggestion was that we re-open a dialogue with SAE with the goal of a joint IEEE/SEA workshop or conference in this field. Specific areas of interest to Airbus, Boeing, Rolls Royce, and others are the continuing efforts into More Electric Aircraft (MEA). Also, there are opportunities within Airbus/Boeing/EADS/Rolls Royce/Thales/BAe Systems/Selex and a surplus of Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers. There is also the scope for specific workshops in this area.
3) Marine
The IEEE already owns the ESTS conference in collaboration with IAS, PES, and PELS. It emphasizes a naval focus and is held in the USA in Virginia or Maryland. There are a large number of marine expos, with the electric and hybrid marine technology expo being a major international event, or PlugBoat, and perhaps there is an opportunity for a conference to run alongside that expo? We also have the Solar Splash event (student electric boat racing competition) that could also be a part of this effort.
4) Heavy Transportation
There are rapid global developments in vehicle electrification in mining, construction, agriculture, road-transport trucks, off-road trucks. The economic and technical benefits of better truck efficiency are extreme. IEEE has an opportunity to incorporate innovations in these application areas into ITEC and other conferences. Rail transport electrification is moving beyond mature diesel electric and electric rail technology to active safety, active control, and wide-scale technology advances across light rail and heavy rail. This is a major IEEE opportunity.

Governance
The Core-7 proposes the establishment of a formal Steering Committee to provide governance oversight and coordination of programming – not only within the new Community’s programming and service offerings but also to coordinate IEEE-wide, to support in-place and future (sovereign) Society programming such as conferences, publications, service offerings, and educational products.
It is understood by all participating societies that each society individual has a right to maintain and/or collaborate on new programming and activities. Equity and fairness must be maintained as a cornerstone if this Initiative is to successfully migrate to a new organizational unit. Those who have TE at the center of their Field of Interest (FoI) must be able to continue activities within their FoI and enjoy the added benefit of a converged structure, while those for whom TE is peripheral must be allowed to take advantage of any highly visible TE activity to reasonably promote their own products and services in the area.
(Proposed) 12 Affiliate IEEE Operating Units and Societies to the IEEE Transportation Electrification Community (TEC). The Affiliate members would contribute $3,000 in our proposed model – typical of what patrons provide for IEEE Councils and to help incent their participation and commitment. Affiliates will have access to policy and products as well as a voice in development of future programming and opportunities for cooperation in the TE arena provided byTEC.
The Steering Committee will be representative of the “one voice” for Transportation Electrification external to IEEE.
The Steering Committee will coordinate, or adjudicate when necessary, technical activities and provide oversight for the fund for One IEEE related activities including portal, newsletter, press relation, outreach, advocacy, etc.
The Steering Committee will consist of one representative from each of the seven (7) financial sponsors (core societies)
Each Society’s representative will have one (1) vote on the committee
Societies with technical sponsorship (Affiliates) will be members of the Steering Committee without vote.
The Chair will serve a two year term, renewable for one additional term by vote

Governance Model
The diagram is meant to demonstrate that the governance structure of the TEC will be one of collaboration, communication, cooperation, with shared responsibility and purpose. We envision a unified “one-IEEE” on Transportation Electrification to “Sustain an internal community for IEEE and affiliated professionals and our external strategic partners, researchers and industry leaders working at the intersection of Transportation Electrification with Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Sciences, Reliability, and Safety.

TEC Steering Chair will rotate every two (2) years with an opportunity to be re-elected to serve one additional consecutive term, after which Chair post would pass to another Core-7 member by election by membership of the core. We would suggest that a PELS representative assume the chair position initially.
Page 12
PELS is the IEEE home for power electronics, the discriminating strength for IEEE when it comes to TE
PELS has been working in TE for decades (10 year study of Explore downloads based on keywords revealed that PES 55%, PELS 23%, IAS 16%, VTS 6%)
PELS enjoys a leadership position in the TE flagship conference series
Currently launching Transactions on Transportation Electrification 9T-TE)
PELS has actualized $200k+ surplus in each of the past three years and healthy reserve to provide lead financial support if called upon to do so
PELS has an Executive Director in place to provide admin support required for smooth transition and efficient and operation
PELs and its Sister Societies have been collaborating in TE such as TEM, TTE, and ITEC (PELS was the founding society for VPPC, looking to re-engage)
PELS, PES and IAS own 2/3 or
more of all IEEE standards
General Administration, and Staffing Considerations
Since the onset of discussions related to the proposed migration of Transportation Electrification, PELS has expressed an interest to be named as the Home-Society.
Within the Core-7, PELS can uniquely offer the advantage of an in-place multi-Society administrative office to ensure an expedient and seamless transition from the Future Directions group with continuity of programming and services to benefit the TEC.
Known internally as TA Society Shared Services, this seven (7) staff team is IEEE’s first multi-society service unit. This admin-office adaptation provides the ability to deliver coverage and specialization for subject matter issues and multiple disciplines such as conferences, publications, governance support, legal, media and marketing communications, publications support, and an existing multi-unit service model to draw and grow TEC services and programming upon.
TEC would “inherit” this operations team with over 50+ years of combined non-profit and private industry business administrative and program management experience. More importantly, a majority of that acumen gained is within IEEE. This experience can assist TEC in navigating IEEE’s internal operational and administrative complexities. Assuredly, there are multiple benefits to TEC to tie into an in-place staff that is already operating in a flexible and scalable cross-functional Society support environment while sharing resources, reducing overhead costs, distributing and balancing task loads, and leveraging best practices.
As part of the Society Shared Services, PELS staff resources includes a Group Executive Director, three (3) Senior Society Administrators, two (2) additional Society Administrators, and currently two (2) Editorial Assistants to draw upon.
We propose to build on this existing team and matrix structure to dramatically shorten the training and immersion cycle for (any) new staff to become job-efficient working within IEEE policies, procedures, and culture.
Bottom line: TEC will hit the ground running for 2015.
Consider: The existing labor in place for administrative and staff support for EVC efforts currently include one (1) senior level Program Manager (part-time with 50%+ time dedicated to the initiative) and one (1) full-time Web and Media senior-level staff (full-time status) – i.e. combined they deliver 3000+ staff labor hours. We understand initially there were also two other part-time individuals working on EVC team in 2011.
Page 13
Additionally, senior volunteer efforts include not only the tireless efforts and significant contributions of Mr. Lee Stogner, but also more than 15 volunteers contribute monthly as assistant editors on the weekly TE e-newsletter. Others, we understand, have also provided significant contributions to EVC’s web-portal content and social media feed mechanisms. These contributions have added 1,000’s of hours of (free) labor value to the model supporting EVC growth and services.
Conservatively, it is estimated to sustain and provide continuity for EVC’s 2014 programming and services, it will be necessary for the Home-Society to be authorized and funded (from the Core-7) to hire or retain staff to execute in-process programming commitments.
We suggest minimally one FT staff (a senior level Program Manager) and a part-time Marketing and Social Media Administrator would need to be hired, trained, and transitioned in third quarter 2014, to allow them to work and transition program duties from existing FD staff to insure continuity. The clear advantage is that the (new) TEC staff would benefit from joining the in-place Shared Society Services team experienced in internal operations, their ability to share and cover workload and assignments, provide cost-containment via reduced redundancy in operations, and again, benefit from the inherent sharing of best practices.
* Please exam the addendum materials including the draft position descriptions for both anticipated hiring’s. For labor cost assumptions, please refer to the Financial Model represented in the attached
file “TE- Proforma Financial Modeling - 5.30.14 MPK.xlsx “.

Marketing and Communications
The IEEE Future Directions group along with the efforts of countless volunteer leaders from across an inclusive cross-section of IEEE Societies, Councils, and Operating Units has established an impressive record of implemented MarCom points of contact and market development. As the TEC plans to honor programming commitments in place and transition these under the new Community, let us recap some of the 2014 accomplishments to date:
Communications Portal traffic continues to be above 4,000 visits a month
LinkedIn has grown to >3800 Members
Flipboard has >37000 members with 1.5M Flips
Delivered monthly TE welcome and care Letters
Conferences Provided speakers and panelists in FD Convergence, ISGT, SAE World Congress
Flagship IEVC 2014 planned for Dec 17-19 in Florence, Italy
Publication eNewsletter published as scheduled.
Transaction Infrastructure in preparation, CFP starting June.
Electrification magazine second edition released
Education
eLearning series – over 400 enrollments (404 for Battery tech; 9 for drive train) DL Series
Wireless Power Transfer DL series held at UMich on March 13th. More planned
Looking toward the future and sustainability of TE at IEEE
Certainly as a primary goal, the Core-7 feels it is not enough to merely sustain the activity already in motion for building the brand and positioning of the TEC to be “the “one voice” for Transportation Electrification external to IEEE”. Together, we must also look to develop new products and service offerings to build a sustainable and financially self-supporting Community.
Of note, this strategy is not mutually exclusive or meant to be interference to the Communities member organizations (Societies, Councils, and Operating Units) to maintain and expand opportunities within their own (sovereign) programming (education, conferences, publications...). Successful migration to a shared community model dictates that both conditions be met and embraced by all participants inter-dependent in the Community structure.
To that end, captured from our multi-society development meetings and taken from PEL’ own recent strategic retreat exercises, we have included just a brief sampling of new products for the purposes of demonstrating potential non-dues revenue streams, and as well, to invite further programming and services development collaborative discussion. Please note we have used these as a base to quantify activities within the financial modeling included with this proposal.
Page 15
To sustain the current activity level, to grow the Community’s impact and influence, both internally and externally, we must also build a Community model that is self-sustaining.
Conservatively, with some adaptable and scalable programming, potentially, we could reach $1.7MM in contributing revenues to the Community by year 10.
Additionally, if we allow for a re-investment algorithm of 50% from prior year surplus starting in year 6, we can both grow the available funding for new programming and reduce (or return) annual premium contributions by the Core-7 and affiliates – i.e. work towards a self-sustaining Community via the remaining surplus.
Potential Financial Performance
2017 2019 2023
Revenue $405,225 $481,377 $489,383
Surplus $12,995 $103,963 $95,179
ROI 3% 22% 19%
(Potential) Products and Services
Some of the product concepts brainstormed in our discussions were: workshops & tutorials for fee, new or existing conferences, webinars, publications, workshops, corporate training for fee (“DLs for hire”), book development and sales. Also discussed was the potential for a new certificate on TE which would proliferate book and workshop sales as well as generate new revenue collected from test fees. A basic non-profit mechanism for non-dues revenue generation, Certification programming inherently breeds member retention.

Motion to have the IEEE IAS pay all expenses associated with the three individual Myron Zucker Undergraduate Student Design Contest winners for 2014. These expenses include $1800 for student prizes and $1200 for academic departments. ($800 First Place, $600 Second Place, $400 Third Place – prizes; $500 First Place, $400 Second Place, $300 Third Place – University Prize). In addition, for the winning students who travel to the Annual Meeting (maximum of three), they will each be given complimentary lodging, complimentary conference registration, and up to $2000 reimbursement for actual travel expenses per person. Background: In the past, the Zucker Funds have been used to fund the Travel Program and three Myron Zucker Undergraduate Student Design Contest winners. Beginning in 2013, the Myron Zucker Undergraduate Student Design Contest was expanded to include individual winners as well as team winners. Expenses associated with three additional winners for the individual category of the Design Contest will deplete the Zucker funds. Having the IAS cover these additional expenses will help to preserve the Zucker Funds. Passed unanimously

Motion to add the following new by-law, article 14.7:
Proposed new by-law: 14.7 - In extenuating circumstances, if it is determined to be in the best interest of the Society, any appointed member of a Society Governing Body, or of any committee thereof, whether as an officer or member, can be removed from that position or function, by an affirmative vote of two-thirds of the members of the Executive Board, provided a quorum is reached. Such a vote can be requested by any two members of the Executive Board.
Proposed changes to the IAS By-Laws
Discussion 03/11/2014
Bruno Lequesne, Chair, Constitution & Bylaws Standing Committee
Change 1: Goal: How to break a tie in a board election
Motion to add the following paragraph to the IAS By-laws:
13.5.4—In the event an election vote results in a tie between two or more candidates to a given position, the Executive Board shall choose between the nominees involved.
Background:
With the emergence of contested elections for members-at-large for instance, the possibility of a tie vote is becoming a real possibility. The proposed language is copied from the IEEE Bylaws (page 38, paragraph 14: “In the event of a tie vote, the Board of Directors shall choose between the nominees involved.”).
Change 2: Goal: Harmonize constitution and by-laws
Motion to amend Article 1.6 by changing “30 days” to “20 days”. Article 1.6 will thus read as follows:
1.6—Members shall be notified of proposed amendments to the Bylaws or major policy changes at least 30 days 20 days before they are acted upon by the responsible legislative body.
Background:
The 30-day delay in the by-laws is inconsistent with the IAS Constitution, which says, Article II, Sec. 2: “Proposed Bylaw changes and reasons therefore shall be sent to all ExecBoard members at least twenty days before the stipulated meeting of the ExecBoard at which the vote shall be taken”.
Change 3: Goal: Expand field of potential candidates for the President’s rotation
Motion to rewrite paragraphs 10.2 and 10.3 in the IAS By-laws as follow: Add “by the start of his term” after “at least two years”, and strike out “and shall be a current member of the ExecBoard”. These two paragraphs then will read as shown below, with added language in bold, eliminated language struck out. There is no change in paragraph 10.1.
10.0—The Officers of the IA Society shall serve terms and perform duties as specified below.
10.1— The Society President shall serve a term of two years during which he shall be a member ex officio of all committees, President of the Council and of the ExecBoard. Under the authority of the Constitution and Bylaws, he shall be chief executive officer of the Society. Under the direction of the Council and the ExecBoard, the Society President shall be responsible for the administration of the affairs of the Society during his term of office. He shall serve as the Society Representative on the IEEE TAB. To be eligible for nomination to the office of Society President, the nominee shall have served as a member of the ExecBoard in some capacity for at least four years, and shall be a current member of the ExecBoard.
10.2— The Society President Elect shall serve a term of two years during which he shall be President Elect of the Council and the ExecBoard. He shall assume the duties of the Society President in the event of the President’s absence or incapacity. The Society President Elect shall perform duties such as listed in the IAS Policies and Procedures Manual or as may be assigned by the Council, the ExecBoard, or the Society President. To be eligible for nomination to the office of the Society President Elect, the nominee shall have served as a member of the ExecBoard in some capacity for at least two years by the start of his term,, and shall be a current member of the ExecBoard. The President Elect shall succeed to the office of Society President without further administrative action. If a vacancy should occur in the office of President Elect, a replacement shall be appointed as provided in Bylaw 13.7.
10.3—The Society Vice President shall serve a term of two years during which he shall be Vice President of the Council and the ExecBoard. The Vice President shall perform such duties as listed in the IAS Policies and Procedures Manual or as may be assigned by the Council, the ExecBoard, or the Society President. To be eligible for nomination to the office of the Society Vice President, the nominee shall have served as a member of the ExecBoard in some capacity for at least two years by the start of his term, and shall be a current member of the ExecBoard. If a vacancy should occur in the office of Vice President, a replacement shall be appointed as provided in Bylaw 13.7.
Background:
As currently written, the position of Vice-President (and hence of President Elect) is limited to relatively few individuals. It is prudent to open the field of possible candidates, to make sure the best available person is selected. This new language will open the field to individuals who left the board recently after serving the board for extended periods of time, and, to individuals in their second year in office at the time of selection.
Change 4: Goal: Harmonize term limits between all board member positions. There is currently none for treasurer or Technical Department chair
Motion to rewrite paragraph 13.4.6, and add paragraph 13.4.7, in the IAS By-laws as follow: Two sentences deleted in paragraph 13.4.6, and paragraph 13.4.7 added in its entirety.
13.4.4—One or more candidates for Society Treasurer to serve a term of two years. 13.4.5—One or more candidates for Chair of each of the Technical Departments to serve a term of two years. 13.4.6—One or more candidates for each open position for ExecBoard Members-at-Large to serve a term of two years. Members-at-Large shall serve a maximum of 2 consecutive terms. A two-thirds vote of the Exec Board can be used to over-ride this policy but only on an annual basis. The total number of Members-at-Large for the ExecBoard shall be recommended by the N&A Committee and approved by action of the ExecBoard. 13.4.7 – The Society Treasurer, Technical Department chairs, and Exec Board Members-at-Large shall serve a maximum of 2 consecutive terms. A two-thirds vote of the Exec Board can be used to over-ride this policy.
Background:
The new language will provide the same limitation to the terms of treasurer and technical department chair as currently used for members-at-large and operating department chairs (paragraph13.6.1).
Change 5: Goal: Provide a means to resolve situations that could lead to an impasse within an IAS entity.
Motion to add the following new by-law, article 14.7:
Proposed new by-law: 14.7 - In extenuating circumstances, if it is determined to be in the best interest of the Society, any appointed member of a Society Governing Body, or of any committee thereof, whether as an officer or member, can be removed from that position or function, by an affirmative vote of two-thirds of the members of the Executive Board, provided a quorum is reached. Such a vote can be requested by any two members of the Executive Board.
Background:
The conditions for removing someone from office or from a position of authority are currently limited in the IAS governing documents to the following: An appointed member of a Society Governing Body or committee may be removed as a member of that Board or Committee, by the members of the appointing body (by-laws, article 14.6). Therefore when matters arise where a committee, chapter, conference board, etc, finds itself in an impasse due to some unforeseen circumstances, and where removing an individual or several individuals from their responsibilities is the most effective or necessary solution, the only mechanism in existence is to wait for re-appointment, re-election, or for the electing governing body to somehow meet and decide on the matter. There are a number of situations where such a mechanism is insufficient: For instance, when the person who needs to be removed is also the person with the power to call for such a vote of the governing body. In another example, when the governing body in question will not meet for an extended period of time.
Giving the Executive Board authority to remove someone from any position will allow the society to diffuse any number of difficult situations within its committees, chapters, conferences, and any other activity.
The use of the word "committee"- lower-case 'c', - is meant to refer to any subgroup of a larger body, so is meant to be understood broadly.
The IAS constitution specifically states that all details concerning the appointment and election of officers and chairs will be specified in the by-laws. Therefore a by-law modification can address matters of removal of authority as well.
The proposed changes has been reviewed and modified by, and is now acceptable to, IEEE governance staff. However, this change like any other by-law change will need to be officially approved by IEEE after IAS Board approval.
Relevant documents currently in the IAS governing bodies:
Constitution:
Article IV
Sec. 1—The members of the IA Society are those members of IEEE in good standing who have made application to join and who have paid the annual dues of the Society, as provided in the Society Bylaws.
Article IX
Sec. 2.1—The Society Officers shall be IEEE Fellows or Senior Members and shall be appointed by the Council in a manner and for terms as prescribed in the Bylaws. (Note, Sec. 2.0: the Society officers are the Society President, Society President Elect, Society Vice President, and Society Treasurer).
Article IX
Sec. 3.1—Department Chairs shall be IEEE Fellows or Senior Members. They shall be appointed by the Society Executive Board or by the Council in a manner and for terms as prescribed in the Bylaws.
3.2—Other Department personnel shall be appointed in a manner and for terms as prescribed in the Bylaws.
3.3—Society Committee Officers and Members shall be appointed in a manner and for terms as prescribed in the Bylaws.
By-laws:
13.5.3— An Officer/Elected Member appointed by the voting members of the Council may be removed from office, with or without cause, within thirty days following either:
(a) The affirmative vote of two-thirds of the votes of the members of the Council present at the time of the vote, provided a quorum is present, on a motion to remove such individual, or
(b) the receipt by IEEE of a petition signed by at least 10% of the total number of voting members in the society moving for the removal of such individual and a subsequent ballot on such motion approved by the voting members of the society. If a majority of the ballots cast by the voting members for or against such motion are to remove such individual, the individual shall be removed from such positions.
14.6—An appointed member of a Society Governing Body or committee may be removed as a member of that Board or Committee, with or without cause, by affirmative vote of two-thirds of the votes of the members of the appointing body present at the time of the vote, provided a quorum is present, to remove such Board or Committee member.
Motion to rewrite paragraph 13.4.6, and add paragraph 13.4.7, in the IAS By-laws as follow: Two sentences deleted in paragraph 13.4.6, and paragraph 13.4.7 added in its entirety.
13.4.4—One or more candidates for Society Treasurer to serve a term of two years. 13.4.5—One or more candidates for Chair of each of the Technical Departments to serve a term of two years. 13.4.6—One or more candidates for each open position for ExecBoard Members-at-Large to serve a term of two years. Members-at-Large shall serve a maximum of 2 consecutive terms. A two-thirds vote of the Exec Board can be used to over-ride this policy but only on an annual basis. The total number of Members-at-Large for the ExecBoard shall be recommended by the N&A Committee and approved by action of the ExecBoard.
13.4.7 – The Society Treasurer, Technical Department chairs, and Exec Board Members-at-Large shall serve a maximum of 2 consecutive terms. A two-thirds vote of the Exec Board can be used to over-ride this policy.

Q4 Board Meeting The Q4 board meeting is in conjunction with Concopan conference in Panama. We will be piggy backing upon the conference events (meals, conference banquet, conference technical tour) so all Board members need to REGISTER for the conference (and expense it). The web site is up and is www.ieee.org/concapan2014.. Early registration ends September.
Travel: As approved in a motion last year, I continue to attend and support our Conferences, and the efforts of Chapters and Membership to grow our audience. Trip reports to the executive and Lynda have been issued – I will not repeat them here.

President Report
Budapest, R8 meeting and Chapters Taiwan - Smart Grid and Chapters Japan – SLED, IPEC and EVTec Munich/Belfort – Chapters events
Other Stuff: There is a motion at TAB this coming week to disallow duplication in Conference Papers with Transactions or Magazine papers. This will impact some of our technical committees more than others. I am trying to rally support with other Presidents to defeat this motion, but if I am not successful then our TC’s should be aware they must change the way they operate. Heads up to Department Chairs. We are moving to hire another Staff – Executive Director. The idea is to have support to take our Strategic vision forward and grow the Societies base and revenue streams.
A short report – lots going on in Transportation, Smart Grid, 50th anniversary, Marketing initiatives, etc but these are all covered elsewhere in the meeting agenda. Respectfully submitted, Blake Lloyd

Governance Board Culture – Obtain training and search for resources to distribute to the board to
help shift from a “working board” to a “strategic board.” Board Composition – Establish a new Board position to focus on new technologies that
could disrupt our technical committees Technical Committees – Set up a technical committee incubator to identify, nurture and
address new areas of technology not currently covered – Develop specific roles for active student/younger members in
technical committee operations – Provide repository of best practices and tools for technical
committees to use to save time, streamline operations and learn from each other
Finance – Develop concrete strategy to attract more industries to IAS with an
emphasis on exhibiting and sponsorships
11/21/2014 3
Long Range Planning
Discussion on Governance related opportunities at the board meeting
11/21/2014 4
Membership Recruitment – Develop ways to match volunteers with volunteer opportunities taking
into account their current skills and talents, as well as the competencies they would like to develop during their volunteer service. Utilize tools such as membership applications, database, etc. to capture and make that information useful and available.
– Support, engage and incentivize post-university membership Retention – Develop roles and responsibilities for retiring members to ensure we don’t
suffer from significant brain drain as Boomers begin to retire and we can take advantage of their knowledge and skills
Gathering Information – Consider impact on membership if our globalization strategy focuses on
preserving differences and diversities, building bridges between members and eliminating barriers in terms of communications and access
– Find out why our members join and what attracts them to IAS – Determine how demographic and population shifts may impact IEEE IAS
membership over the next decade
11/21/2014 5
Education Education Plan – Develop a comprehensive education plan that includes
target demographics, content strategy and delivery vehicles – Obtain additional staffing and volunteer resources to
devote to developing the Education Plan Conferences – General – Consider implementing more robust “virtual” options both
for attendees and the delivery of content Standards, Courses and Credits – Develop “ask-the-expert” opportunities both in-person and
online – Expand online education with applications focus. Start with
content we have on hand but also provide unique technical content not taught in schools.
11/21/2014 6
Marketing Marketing – Develop a comprehensive marketing and communications
plan. Include public relations and media relations components to ensure IAS is a go-to source for media regarding technical issues.
– Messaging should be carefully crafted to differentiate and appeal to both researchers and practitioners, but also to reinforce the productive partnerships IAS can build between both constituencies
Vehicles – Utilize social media effectively – Record and post more video content for IEEE TV, YouTube,
IAS website, etc. – Have a leadership presence at conferences focused on
promoting IAS to attendees
11/21/2014 7
Outreach
Conduct outreach to sister societies to see if we can share our strategic plans with each other Hold discussions to see where we might be able to leverage each other for the benefit of all
11/21/2014 8
Conferences
Develop a distinct and visible IAS presence at all IAS sponsored Conferences. Hold conference in new/more attractive locations. Co-locate with ECCE annual meeting.
11/21/2014 9
General
New initiative committee to incubate technical committees, conferences, etc. Begin to share videos and materials about the changing nature of governance and problem solving techniques with the boards, volunteers and members. Have a discussion with your board and volunteers about what democratic processes mean in the association context and how transparency is a good move, but won’t be enough in the future. Begin to decide how to position IEEE IAS to directly engage with stakeholders in your profession on all issues in which ideas about open source might be applicable (bylaws, policies, legislation under consideration, content development, news, problem solving).

Create a task force to look at big, intractable, wicked problems members struggle with that your association has yet to solve. Decide if you can use open source techniques to solve them. Become acquainted with the balance between crowdsourcing that leads to actionable information or crowdsourcing that leads to “groupthink.”
11/21/2014 11
General
Appoint a key volunteer leader or staff member to investigate github and learn how it works. Investigate other platforms that might be of use. Be more transparent and effective in selecting nominees and announcing awards.
11/21/2014 12
Marketing/publicity/Social media
Develop new branding platform, tagline and campaign – Perhaps a name change. – Consider streamlining mission statement. – Identify two roles: practitioner vs researcher.
Begin to share videos, books and materials about this evolution – social media 2.0. Create a page on your website that lists all kinds of collaborative consumption services that you feel your members might like to learn about. Create a task force to look at the idea of reputation capital. Decide how to help your members learn about and begin to craft their own online identities in terms of building trust in their behaviors and skills and abilities they use on the job.
11/21/2014 13
Marketing Create a task force to look at the concept of “idling resources.” Are there swaps your members could be making that would reduce their costs and make them more competitive in the marketplace? Is there some way you can help them set those systems up? How about between IEEE itself? Got a booth idling all year? Shared resources on the web: “ask a member” for technical questions, “web forums” for networking among members to find partners on projects, push ideas, etc., “tutorials” shared on the web for easy access.
11/21/2014 14
Association Trends Time Compression – How can we save our members time? Total Noise – How can we leverage our communications
in an era of “total noise” so we are getting the right information to the right members right when they need it most?
11/21/2014 15
Association Trends Specialization – How can we be flexible enough to provide
resources for emerging technologies within our own society?
Technology – How can we embrace mobile and other
technologies so we stay as close to our members as possible?
11/21/2014 16
Association Trends Globalization – How can we create an effective and
welcoming multi-cultural eco-system? Workforce Skills Gaps/MOOCs (massive open online courses) – How can we ensure our educational
programs are evolving to address the global skills gap and adjust to meet the expectations of new generations of learners?

New business (2)
Negotiation for attracting a new group in MSDAD The group is hosted by another society (non-IEEE) but they
would like to move out (the majority of the members) -> MSDAD offers ground for a new TC
They have their own conference (http://www.isot2014.org/) Thematic:
Someone from Ex-board will assist in their meeting in Portland (Blake or Dave)
Adaptive/Controllable optics Optomechatronics for microscopes Laser/Fiber optics Optofluidics Micro optoelectro mechanical systems (MOEMS) Bio-medical imaging Visual motion tracking and control Machine vision/Optical imaging Optical and vision-based monitoring/control
Optical-based sensors and actuators Optical metrology Vision-based micro/nano manipulation Optomechatronics for astronomy/space applications Optomechatronics for robotic applications Optomechatronics for bio-medical applications Optomechatronics for manufacturing applications
New Business (3)
Feedbacks for TCs (IACC) Attract new members (especially young people) by
giving travel awards to students and first time members submitting paper(s) to IAS annual meeting for the first time. Budget proposal: $1500 ($2x500 for two students awards and $500 for first time member award).
MSDAD approves that request. Do we need a motion at Ex-board level ?
(IACC): can IACC go and look for outside sponsorship from companies and if yes, what form of advertisement would be legally allowed for those companies before, during and at the annual conference?
Answer from Ex-board is requested

2015 IEEE IAS Annual Meeting The hotel contract has been signed by the IEEE. In order to avoid a conflict with the 2015 PCIC, the conference dates are October 18-22. The room rate is $159 per night exclusive of taxes. NetSuite In order to comply with the recommendations of the IEEE’s external auditors, the IEEE Board of Directors has approved an IEEE Audit Committee motion for the use of a single financial reporting tool throughout the IEEE. NetSuite was identified as this tool, and at this time IEEE
Meetings, Conferences & Events (MCE) has been asked to help roll out the tool to conference organizers. NetSuite is a cloud-based financial software system that can provide bookkeeping solutions, a centralized data repository for financial information, and the ability to run income statements and budget vs. actual reports at any time. Conference treasurers are being requested to utilize NetSuite as the system of accounting for your conference. NetSuite allows the logging of all financial transactions into the system and uploading support documentation (invoices, receipts, registration reports, etc.) for each. IEEE has been providing ‘log on’ credentials to conference treasurers and webinars for training. IEEE Mashup Meeting The focus of this meeting, held in Chicago in May, was the development of a suite of tools for conference organizers for registration, paper management, etc. A separate ad-hoc committee has been established by the IEEE to focus solely on financial tools. Other Activities The Meetings Department has been in communication with a number of conferences regarding conference loans and MOUs. A number of motions have been developed by the department for the Board’s consideration. Respectfully submitted,

Publications’ Report to IAS ExecBoard Meeting June 15-16, 2014
Ahmed Rubaai, Chair IAS Publications Dept Louie Powell, ScholarOne AdministratorCarl Speck, Transactions Editor-in-ChiefLanny Floyd, Magazine Editor-in-Chief
Society Performance–Submission History
Number of submissions in the past four years
q In 2011 and 2012, the data had to be mined in April to support ExBoard meetings in May
q In 2013 and 2014, the data had to be mined in late May & early June to support ExBoard meetings in June
q The number reported in 2013 was significantly lower than the number reported this year even though the data was compiled two weeks later in 2013 ü meaning that it was likely that at the time the data was compiled last year, there had been more submissions for
those conferences than we have seen so far this yearq The dramatic increase reported for 2014 represents a true increase and not just a quirk of timing relative to that
annual rhythm
q The following chart compares the number of submissions during the immediate past 12 month period comparedwith the average annual rate of submissions for the 2008-2013 period. The Society has been experiencing anoverall growth in submissions
Society Performance : Accept/Reject Rates
Accept/Reject Rates
q The following chart shows the decision history of the committees over the past 12 months, and also depicts the relative levels of support for Transactions and the Magazine. There is no overall target for acceptance or rejection.
q The practitioner-oriented committees have traditionally been biased toward the Magazine, while the research-oriented committees have been biased toward Transactions.
q The committees that follow the ‘post-presentation’ tradition tend to have a lower overall acceptance rate than the committees that follow the ‘pre-presentation’ tradition. However, there is no mechanism to determine an overall acceptance rate that takes into account pre-conference selection.
Society Performance : First Decision Time
q The following chart shows the first decision time of the committees over the past 12 months compared with the average annual rate for the 2008-2013 period.
q This is a metric that TAB uses to assess the performance of each Society. The first decision is the decision to accept or reject a paper as initially submitted, or to return it for mandatory revision. The target set by IEEE-TAB is that the average time for the Society should be 90 days or less.
q The committees that follow the ‘pre-presentation’ tradition (the PID and I&CPS Committees) usually defer reporting that first decision until after the conference presentation. For that reason, those committees tend to have a longer first decision time than those committees who do not have that constraint.
q For committees whose activities are centered about a specific conference, there will be periods during the year when it is not possible to determine an average first decision time for the immediate past 12 month period.
q The peer review process relies on volunteers. A critical point that these statistics can’t show is that a small fraction of submissions encounter isolated problems with unresponsive volunteers (AEs and reviewers).
Society Performance : IAS TransactionsBacklog of Unpublished Transactions Papers
q Unsubmitted papers, papers in review or papers in revision: 569
q Assuming our typical 55% acceptance rate, papers that will eventually be approved for publication: 313
q Decided papers pending final files or EiC scheduling: 160
q Many of the 160 papers that have been decided have been approved for the Magazine and 42-45 will definitely be published in the Magazine in 2015 (with the overflow going to Transactions).
q In addition to the papers that Carl and Lanny have already scheduled for publication we have a further 473 papers already in the pipeline that will eventually need to be published.
q Those 473 papers in the pipeline, about 383 are likely to be Transactions papers, and at Carl’s current rate of production, that’s 5.5 issues. Currently, Carl is scheduling the January/February 2015 issue, so the material already in the pipeline will pretty much finish out 2015.
q Papers that are being submitted right now for the 2014 IAS Annual Meeting are not likely to be published in Transactions until January/February 2016.
Society Performance: IAS Magazine
qThe first 3 issues for 2014 were mailed on schedule. The July/August issue is in production and on schedule.Development of the Sept/Oct 2014 issue is on schedule.
q2014 marks the 20th year of publication for Industry Applications Magazine. The front cover for all six issuefeatures a banner “Celebrating 20 years”. Jan/Feb featured an article with Barry Brusso and Mike Foley.May/June featured reflections from Baldy Bridger, and July/August will feature a reprint of an article by JohnKassebaum. The EiC is investigating other ways to mark this milestone without impacting the page budget ordisplacing current content.
qEiC will be incorporating the special logo for IAS 50 year anniversary in the front cover for all issues in 2015.
qThe EiC attended the IAS/PCA Cement Industry Conference in April. He took this opportunity to nurtureworking relationships with CIC leadership to discuss ways to engage the CIC in magazine content. Lanny felt itwas a successful engagement. In recent years, Cement World Magazine has been the focus of CIC andconference publicity. The Cement World editor will share content with Lanny for dual publication in IAMagazine. For the first time in many years, the call for papers for the next conference will appear in theJuly/August issue and 2014 conference highlights will appear in the Sept/Oct issue.
qThere are no other outstanding issues or concerns with IA Magazine at this time

IEEE INDUSTRY APPLICATIONS SOCIETY S.M. Halpin, Chairman PLEASE REPLY TO: Standards Department ECE Department Auburn University 200 Broun Hall Auburn University, AL 36849 (334) 844-1824 (334) 844-1809 FAX halpin@eng.auburn.edu (email)
June 16, 2014 To: Blake Lloyd, IAS President Subject: Standards Department 1st Quarter Report Items of interest for the Executive Board are ongoing regarding standards:
1. The Smart Grid Standards Committee is finally active and I am presently serving as Chair. There are a total of 11 members of the Committee, including SA liaison. By far the most active Society is PES. SA has developed a list of standards thought to be related to smart grid, but the general concept is so broad that a very large number of standards is in the list. Many of these are loosely related to smart grid (at best). Repeated queries to the IAS Technical Committees involved in standards activities has not resulted in any feedback on the list, so it could appear that IAS is not active in smart grid technology development or applications. This could be a marketing/publicity/image issue that we need to address.
2. The 3000 series (the “new” Color Books) is making slow but steady progress. I am concerned
that the continued decline of membership, particularly young members, in the Industrial and Commercial Power Systems Department, will eventually lead this reorganization effort to founder. One way to promote involvement of young people to is consider seminars in conjunction with the meetings of the active Student Branch Chapters. While we have funds for webinars and other similar activities, they have never been requested—perhaps these funds could be better spent in support of activities for young members in conjunction with the Education and Chapters and Membership Departments. Developing such a coordinated plan would seem to address several of the major long-range planning opportunities as identified in December 2013.
3. There continues to be very little real traction in the area of DC standards in areas where IAS members are active. There is significant general activity in the technical area, but limited if any tangible interest in the heavy industries that dominate the IAS standardization activities.

Electronic Communications Committee Report
Noteworthy ESTMP Mobile App Follow Up – Tim Driscoll
o The good:
Easy to use, simple set up, compatible with devices
2014 PCIC is using it, EPEC and I&CPS are also considering it
ESTMP ’16 will use EventMobi
o Lessons Learned:
Offline mode is not as useful as online mode. Without Wi-Fi, mobile users will
have to rely on 3G/4G cell service.
Recommend starting setup around 2 months prior to conference.
Push for more offline functionality.
