Alexander

Candidate
for IEEE ComSoc Vice President - Standards Activities

| I
believe that our technical society's major business is operating and
maintaining
a global human network of communications and networking professionals.
Our tangible outputs, e.g., publications, technical meetings, and
standards are
results of activities that occur in various technical communities,
the human sub-nets, that together constitute ComSoc. |
More of my "political"
views and my positions on
various society
activities can be gathered from the president's messages that I
co-authored with ComSoc Presidents: Roberto De Marca, Celia Desmond,
Curtis Siller, Nim Cheung, Doug Zuckerman, and Byeong Gi Lee:
