Nomination for new IFS-TC members

Dear IFS-TC members,
 
On behalf of the IFS-TC Nominations and Elections Subcommittee, I would like to call for nomination of new TC members.
 
The elected new members will serve from 2019/1/1 to 2021/12/31. Since there are 10 TC members whose term expires at the end of 2018, we expect to elect 10 new members this time.
 
-        Candidates can be self-nominated or nominated by current TC members, retired TC members, as well as established people in the IFS field.
-        The nominator should inform the nominee in advance.
-        One nominator can nominate more than one candidate.
-        The nominee should be an IEEE-SPS member or will join if elected.
-        Prospective candidates must submit a nomination form (see attached) and a 1-page CV.
 
The detailed election procedures can be found here:

The schedule for this year's nomination and election is given below.
-        Nomination Period: July 16 - September 14 (both included)
-        Election Period: September 16 – September 30
-        Final Results Announcement: October 5
 
Please submit the nomination material to the IFS Nominations and Elections Subcommittee (email alias: ifs-election@ieee.org). The subcommittee members include Julien Bringer, Roberto Caldelli, Siwei Lyu, Karthik Nandakumar, and Juan Ramón Troncoso-Pastoriza.
 
If you have any suggestions/comments on the nomination form or procedure, please let us know as soon as possible. Thank you.

Best regards,  
Juan Ramón
