Future Directions CommitteeRegion 9 Meeting Roberto de Marca Chair, IEEE Future Directions Comm. 2012 IEEE President Elect Candidate
IEEE Future directions Committee Scope • The mission of the IEEE Future Directions Committee is to anticipate and determine the direction of existing, new and emerging technologies, and related issues, and to spearhead their investigation and development by IEEE. The emphasis is on new, emerging technical areas either not adequately covered by existing IEEE Societies/Councils (S/C), or which overlap the fields of interest of the existing S/C's.
Industry Advisory Committee (appointed) • Heinrich Stuttgen, NEC Europe • Yrjö Neuvo, Former Nokia CTO, Finland • Hugh Bradlow, CTO, Telstra, Australia • Jeff Voas, NIST, USA • Paul Farrar, Vice President, IBM, USA • Hideo Kuwahara, Pres. IEEE Photonics Society, Fujitsu, Japan
FDC Emerging Activities • Working Groups for 2012 (so far) • Smart Grid (Chair: Wanda Reder) • Transportation Electrification (Chair: Russ Lefevre) • Cloud Computing (Chair: Steve Diamond) • Green ICT (Chair: Jaafar Elmirghani, Univ. of Leeds) The first three groups have already received NIC funding • Life Sciences (separate initiative, supported by FD staff)
FDC Emerging Activities (2) • Other Potential Topics: • Enhancing the Performance of multicore computer systems (High Performance Computing) • Disaster Mitigation and Relief • Information Society (human centric) • Internet of Things (IoT)

Cu-65LP / 65nm Cloud Computing – 2012 Plan
FDC Conferences • IEEE Custom Industry Seminars (“2” in 2011 Completed) • Motion approved in TAB for a proof of concept trial. • Smart Grid World Forum • 2010 (Brussels), 2011 (Beijing) • 2012 , December 5-7 (Geneva) • Technology Time Machine (TTM): a Symposium on technologies beyond 2020. • TTM 2011 Hong Kong • TTM 2012 Dresden, Germany (23-25 May, 2012)
Custom Industry Seminars • Format • One-day IEEE conference at client location with 6 topics • In-person attendance and webcast • Process • Client selects initial list of 10-12 topics • Iterative discussion (client and IEEE) to agree on final list • IEEE identifies speakers (who must be IEEE members) for topics selected • IEEE sends abstracts and speakers’ bios to client for approval • Client and IEEE finalize agenda • Long (4-6 month) process with a few surprises along the way • Customer handles local arrangements, IEEE handles speakers’ logistics • Net surplus returned to s/c’s as a function of their respective society memberships.
