  8. Which Future? • Reaching out • Target audience • Professional engineers • Integration and involvement • Comprehensiveness • Support to education

  9. Reaching Out To expand publicity and interactions worldwide for the Systems Journal • at our conferences • at major conferences of the Member Societies • with non-IEEE entities Publicity media • flyers to be distributed at major conferences • poster to be displayed at major conferences • announcements distributed through newsletters and emailing lists of Member Societies

  10. Target Readers To focus publicity and publication • on scientists • on professional engineers • on governmental bodies • on students To attract the various audiences with material valuable to them

  11. Professional Engineers To care specifically to the needs of professional engineers through real cases and methodological perspective

  12. Integration and Involvement To attract interest from various technical groups focusing on specific topics To make everybody feeling at home To attract contributions from outstanding individuals and groups

  13. Comprehensiveness To promote visibility of the System Journal

  14. Support to education To create a knowledge base supporting advancement of theory and practice in our field

  15. Anything More? Going beyond the traditional publication perspective (conference proceedings and archival journals)

  16. Further Communications Goals: • To expand the visibility and the knowledge dissemination of the IEEE Systems Council worldwide • To provide a more effective framework for communications More visibility: More future

  17. More Visibility: More Future(1) Systems Council Web Site to expand the structure and revise the information to make it more attractive • technical areas (topics, seminal papers, books, events, presentations of the Member Societies…) • conferences (sponsored, technically co-sponsored) • publications • tutorials • chapters • online communities • member services • mentoring • job offering/searching • …

  18. More Visibility: More Future (2) Systems Knowledge Environment web-based environment for knowledge dissemination • archival papers from the Systems Journal • archival papers from any IEEE transactions and magazine • conference papers from our conferences • conference papers from any IEEE conference • application notes • successful cases • tutorials • mentoring notes • …

  19. More Visibility: More Future (3) Online Tutorials web-based tutorials • theoretical frameworks • methodologies • application issues • application cases • …

  20. More Visibility: More Future (4) Online Communities forums and networking opportunities • discussion forums on technical topics • discussion forums on mentoring • …

  21. More Visibility: More Future (5) Rising awareness on Complex Systems and Systems-of-Systems web-casting and pod-casting • news • major presentations at technical meetings • major presentations at chapter meetings Second Life • short presentations • short tutorials • short seminars • mentoring • … YouTube • short presentations • short tutorials • short seminars • …

  22.
