New technical areas: exploring our future [The President´s Page]

Technical Activities is the foundation for many of the Communication Society (ComSoc)??s products and services, while also providing ??community?? and ??networking?? opportunities for its participants. In particular, it is important for ComSoc to explore new technical areas through the activities of technical committees, emerging technical subcommittees, and ad hoc committees. Within ComSoc, we have a large number of committees that help define and implement the technical directions of the Society. We have 24 Technical Committees (TCs), eight Emerging Technical Subcommittees, and a couple of ad hoc committees (created by the President) that span the interests of multiple existing TCs. In addition, a few of the TCs have created their own special- focus subcommittees.
