MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS

  • When I was the MGA VC SPA, we established a strategic plan for a better, stronger, and wider member engagement. Although Japan was chosen as the pilot country, the plan was designed as a transportable one.
  • I was the leading person in the group who conceived, designed, developed, and brought to life 3 major interdisciplinary IEEE publications, namely, IEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics (1966), IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics (2005), and IEEE Transactions on Industrial Cyber-Physical Systems (2022). This accomplishment has required strong written and oral communication skills and organizational abilities.
  • The above publications were created due to the new technology directions defined by the committee that I led in IES when I was the President.
