[802SEC] Call for papers - IEEE Standards Edcuation Committee

[Glenn Parsons <glenn.parsons@ERICSSON.COM>]

Colleagues,

As may know, the IEEE Standards Education Committee has re-started its quarterly electronic magazine (http://www.standardsuniversity.org/e-magazine/).  The topic for the next eZine in September is “IEEE 802 standards and their applications within smart technologies”  -- which is a broad topic but  has the potential to highlight the standardization efforts we are progressing in IEEE 802.   As a result, we are looking for authors to write short papers on current standards activities.

 

Paul has authorized  sending this to the 802 reflectors.  I would ask the 802 WG chairs to forward this request to their WG reflectors.   Please reach out to me if you would like further information.  Complete details on the submission requirements – including the July 1^st deadline --- are below.

 

Cheers,

Glenn.
