Call for Papers: IEEE Reliability Society ATR

Joe Childs (joechilds@ieee.org)


We are looking for contributions to the 2011 IEEE Reliability Society Annual Technical Report (ATR). The ATR contains articles addressing current technical issues on topics such as reliability, PHM (Prognostics and Health Management), security, trust, safety, human-system interface, maintainability, supportability or any other support disciples. Some topics that would be quite interesting for the ATR:

Technological disasters or risks
Technological solutions to potential disasters or risks
Lessons-learned from past events or trends
Smart Grid
Cloud Computing
Internet Security/Trust


All articles contributed will be published on the IEEE Reliability Society web site as separate searchable articles. Past issues of the ATR can be accessed by going to http://rs.ieee.org/publications.htmland clicking on the “Annual Technology Report” buttons on the left.

Contributions from a single paragraph to several pages can be accommodated. Conciseness is encouraged. Please submit your contributions to joechilds@ieee.org. Notification of your intent to contribute this year's ATR is requested immediately with inputs to be received by mid-January 2012 for timely consideration.
