The objective of the SMCS e-Newsletter is to create
more of a bond between the members and the Society
through disseminating timely information to the members
and communities. I hope and encourage to get SMCS
membership more involved in the Society's e-Newsletter
that will willingly serve as a two way communication
medium instead of more regular Society to membership
information flow. The readers are always welcomed
to submit articles to News-Features and guest articles,
new publications, employment opportunities, and recent
achievements among other things that you may think
fall within the scope of the Newsletter.
SMCS
e-Newsletter will continue to communicate the benefits
and services of the Society to its readers by including
items that describe the IEEE and the SMC Society,
membership information, activities, and publications.
You may also see the past Issues by visiting SMCS
homepage at www.ieeesmc.org.
Distinguished Lecturer Program is being worked out.
You may learn full details about this program, SMCS
distinguished lecturers, and how to request a lecturer
visit by following the links at the Society homepage.
We encourage new SMCS Chapters including student Chapters.
Required assistance from the TCs and financial subsidies
from SMCS are available. I also take this opportunity
to welcome newly found Hong Kong Chapter.
Starting
from this issue, we will include the tables of contents
of the latest SMCS transactions with hot links to
the abstracts for easy reference for our readers.
You may proceed from there to view the full-text of
the papers by clicking on the link [PDF Full-Text(xxxx
kB)] therein using your web account information.
I
am pleased to welcome this year's newly elected members-at-large
and look forward to working with them in the new position.
I would like thank everyone who devoted their time
and contributed to this Issue of the e-Newsletter.
