Objective 2: Strategic planning of technical activitiesHow to Achieve?: Technical Map Project
for Objective 1: TC-Supportfor Objective 1: TC-Support
2.1 TC Introduction Web Pages
2.2 IT Tools for Supporting TC activities (see Appendix A)
2.3 TC Promotion Event at SMC2006
2.4 Campaign of "What can TC do for its members?"
Supporting TC activities makes passive TC's active, makes TC's attractive for their members, and therefore changes them provide academic privilege to their members. This is the start to be SIG's.

2.2 IT Tool ProjectTC-Support:
2.2 IT Tool Project IT tools help to increase the activities of TC's whose members are in far countries. We categorized necessary functions for TC activities and are surveying them.
(1) Document Sharing Toolsuch as Google spreadsheet
(2) Forum ToolsBBS, Wiki and blogHong Yan's (www.my-smc.org)
(3) Video Conferencing Tool commercial ones? open sources? self-development?
(4) Conference Management Tool open sources: such as ConfTool or ConfMan
(5) Mailing ListRunning MLs: smc-excom, smc-bogPlanned MLs: TC Chair ML and Chapter Chair MLPossible MLs: each TC ML

1. Background: Scope of SMCS is so wide that nobody knows our technical trends, emerging topics, and missing coverage of TC's, conferences, and publications well.
2. Objectives: Let's analyze papers in our fields, make a Technical Map, and use it for our strategic decision making, such as• planning new TCs,• new conferences/workshops, special issues, • tutorials, • panels, and• others
3. Progress: We collected paper titles of SMC1998 - SMC2005 and paper titles & abstracts of Trans. on SMC-A, B, and C in 1996-2006. We are now analyzing them.

Organizing 2006 Conf./Workshops sponsored by SMCS
MotionMotion 5.1 Revising the Wording of Approved Motions at BoG2005
1.1 All TC Chairs will be invited to serve as Program Committee members of the annual SMC Conference.1.2 All TC Chairs, Co-Chairs or Vice-Chairs must be IEEE members of SMCS.1.3 An annual lunch meeting for all TC Chairs, TAC members and SMC Chapter Chairs will be held during the annual SMC conference1.4 Each TC must organize at least one invited session at one of the SMC sponsored conferences.1.5 To provide an incentive for SMC chapters to collaborate with the TCs in order to strengthen the role of TCs as SMCS’ technical leaders and to attract the establishment of more grass root organizations that can help boost the SMCS membership drive.1.6 As a long term goal, each TC must plan to organize, within a period of 5 years, at least one special issue in a journal (preferably in one of the SMC publications), one workshop or local conference (preferably in collaboration with at least one SMC chapter), and/or one collaborative project with the industry.
Voting on the motion was: 9 in favor and 3 opposed. Motion passed at BoG2005.
MotionMotion 5.1 Revising the Wording of Approved Motions at BoG2005
• MUST is used in 3 of 6 motions approved by BoG2005.• Our motions should not our requirement but request.
• TC Chairs are not our subordinates but volunteers. They are not elected by SMCS members, are not members of SMCS Standing Committees, and have no voting rights at BoG meetings.• We should express our thanks mind to them, encourage their activities, and increase technical activities of SMCS as its results.
• Increased complaints of TC Chairs since last BoG2005, due to increased their duties, i.e. rules for termination TCs.
