IEEE Technology Navigator (TechNav) Beta Released

IEEE recently released a beta version of the IEEE Technology Navigator (TechNav) that provides an integrated way to locate IEEE technical resources. Users can select a technical concept or “tag,” and TechNav displays IEEE content and events (e.g., conferences, publications, standards, published articles). “Tags” are mapped to IEEE Societies and industry sectors, permitting navigation from two different spaces. In addition to content contained in the IEEE Xplore database, TechNav also includes information such as upcoming conferences and yet unpublished standards. Later this year, IEEE educational products and other IEEE technical resources will also be added. TechNav is useful in discovering gaps in current research and intersections between disciplines or topics previously considered independent and/or unrelated. It can also point out opportunities for collaboration in emerging and growing areas. Feedback is encouraged through the tool or via e-mail to technav@ieee.org.
