Revised Extra Chapter Subsidy Guidelines Basic Principle: Biannual Windows • To enable the Subsidy Committee to compare requests before approving or disapproving them, chapters may only apply for an Extra Subsidy during two application "windows" per year: · April 1– May 1 · October 1 – November 1 • Extra chapter subsidies must be submitted separately of regular, annual chapter maintenance subsidy applications. Principle #2: "Triage" • If the applications within each biannual window overrun half of the Society’s annual extra subsidy budget, preference will be given to chapters that did not receive funding the previous year, or received less than $5K. In other words, chapters may be restricted to $5K over a two year period, depending upon the volume of requests. 2008
Chapter support • Regular subsidies Budget: $20K – 2007 $35K – 2008 • Applications for 2008 ~$45K • Extra subsidies Budget: $20K – 2007 $30K - 2008 • Regional Chapter meetings • DL program and regional DL tour • IEEE Expert Now, IEEE.tv, Table Skirts • OutstandingChapter Award • Educational activities (DVDs) 2008

Japan Chapter Selected as First Recipient of SSCS Outstanding Chapter Award – 2000 Hajime Ishikawa, Chair of the Japan Chapter, said, Japan has hosted a lot of unique activities. They have co-organized three conferences, initiated a new student award, and had very strong membership growth. Their seminar on Wireless and Mobile Access was particularly successful." The seminar featured Professor Paul Grey of UC Berkeley, who spoke on "Recent progress in ICs for wireless communications," and Dr. Masahiro Morikura of NTT, whose talk was "System aspect and service concept of multimedia mobile access communications." The Japan Chapter also organized a valuable review meeting of ISSCC 2000. The goal of this meeting was to help bring the essence of the conference to Society members who could not attend. The review meeting consisted of 12 selected papers from ISSCC and two lectures. The ISSCC Far East Committee Chairman, Dr. Youichi Unno, presented a conference overview along with some of the remarkable achievements and technology trends presented at the conference this year. In addition to the ISSCC Review Meeting, the Japan Chapter cosponsored the Asia-Pacific Conference on ASIC (AP-ASIC), Seoul, Korea, in August 1999. This was the first conference to promote ASIC design research and development activities in the Asia-Pacific region. The Chapter also cosponsored the VDEC LSI Designers Forum in September 1999 and the 3rd System LSI Biwalo Workshop in November 1999, which attracted more than 300 participants. 2007
