The IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS) invites nominations for the position of Editor-in-Chief for the following journal: IEEE Signal Processing Letters (SPL) for a 3-year term starting 1 January 2017.

2015 was an exciting year for the IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS). We launched several new initiatives that will lay the foundation for many years of growth, establishing a renewed vision and sense of purpose and look towards the future of our Society and our field. First and foremost, 2015 marked the launch of the SPS visibility campaign.

As part of the IEEE international community, members have access to the IEEE International Insurance Marketplace, where they can research options that will be right for themselves and their families. At this time, IEEE Member Life Insurance, underwritten by Lloyds of London, is available to IEEE members in more than 60 countries, and many other essential insurance plans are available to members who are living outside their native countries as expatriates. The IEEE Member Life plan is offered with no health questions to answer and benefit options up to US$500,000.

The MGA Information Management and vTools teams are very happy to announce the first release of IEEE eNotice Express. vTools.eNotice is an email distribution service, provided by MGA, that has been developed to send newsletters, meeting notices, social events, and IEEE conference materials to members on behalf of volunteers. Up until now, all eNotices required staff to process them, which could take up to 5 business days. eNotice Express removes the staff component and the wait time for delivery.

All Section officers and Chapter/affinity group chairs will be contacted with a reminder that the following annual reports are required to be eligible for a rebate:
