  1. Reliability Society 2012 Chapter Congress Eric Wong Vice President, Technical Activities Denver, Colorado June 17, 2012 Report on Technical Activities by Eric Wong at the 2012 RS Chapter Congress 1 1 1

  2. Technical Committees Report on Technical Activities by Eric Wong at the 2012 RS Chapter Congress

  3. Current Status & Path Forward Some are active Most of them are dormant Need a New Business Model No need to reinvent the wheel Report on Technical Activities by Eric Wong at the 2012 RS Chapter Congress 3

  4. Lessons Learned by the Computer Society “Special Technical Communities” in IEEE Computer, June 2011 (Vol. 44, No. 6) pp. 84-88 Report on Technical Activities by Eric Wong at the 2012 RS Chapter Congress 4

  5. Instead of many small committees each with a limited number of members, we propose to create only a few committees, each with several sub-committees focusing on different emerging and timely topics. Subcommittees can be formed, expanded, or even dissolved dynamically in response to the community's needs and the latest trends in technology.  The parent Technical Committees will remain active for the purpose of continuity and to help the Reliability Society maintain a core group of scientists and practitioners. A New Model (1) Report on Technical Activities by Eric Wong at the 2012 RS Chapter Congress 5 5 5

  6. Each Technical Committee has a Chair Each subcommittee has a Coordinator Chairs and coordinators must be affiliated with RS Committee members also preferred to be RS members, but some exceptions can be made Need wide buy-in from the communities (industry, academia, government agencies, international organizations, etc.) A New Model (2) Report on Technical Activities by Eric Wong at the 2012 RS Chapter Congress 6 6 6

  7. Each technical committee and/or its subcommittees will have regular meetings (2 or 3 times each year) at conferences attended by a majority of its members. Not only reduce the traveling cost but also make it convenient for people to attend these meetings. All the committees will have a strong participation in the Society’sAnnual Technology Report and RS Newsletter A New Model (3) Report on Technical Activities by Eric Wong at the 2012 RS Chapter Congress 7 7 7

  8. PHM including Device Reliability Software and System Assurance (SQA) including SW & System Reliability, Security, Safety, etc. Trustworthy Computing (TC) including Wireless & InternetReliability A few more! Technical Committees on Selected Topics Enthusiasm is not enough! Must avoid committees with only a few members Report on Technical Activities by Eric Wong at the 2012 RS Chapter Congress 8
