The Computer and Communications Society has grown by leaps and bounds this year. As a result, we need to branch out and begin getting more feedback from our Members, and staffing our offices.

Please join me to help identify some upcoming topics, events, speakers, and volunteers for the coming year.

This could be your chance to become more involved with the ever-growing IEEE Columbus C/Com Society. Volunteering is a great way to build your network of people in the industry and can help you get references for Senior Member grade.

Volunteer roles/offices that need staffed:

• Vice-Chair(s)
• Student Outreach Chair
• Conference Chair
• Collaboration Chair (with such groups as the ACM)

Our goal is to spread around the responsibilities to enable people to volunteer as much or as little as they can. We want to be mindful of our busy schedules.

Needs for Upcoming Events:

• Software Engineering Series?
• Student Research Conference
• Cloud Computing?
• Information Security?
• Presentations on upcoming Microsoft Platforms?
• Distinguished Lecturers
• Tours?
• Others?

Topic: Development of the D7E Electric Drive Tractor

Abstract: The D7E replaces previous driveshaft transmission design with a hybrid diesel-electric drive train that includes a generator, electric motors and power electronics. There are no friction clutches, no driveshaft, no engine belts, and fewer moving parts which results in less power loss and more efficient transfer of engine power to the ground. Compared with other machines in its class, the D7E consumes 10 to 30% less fuel, moves 10% more material per hour, and increases overall efficiency by 25% in material moved per unit of fuel. Design and manufacturing achievements of the D7E will be presented.

Biography: Matt Robinson is Welding Engineer and Automation Team Leader in Advanced Production Technologies at Caterpillar in Peoria, IL. Matt holds a BS in Welding Engineering from the Ohio State University.

Abstract:
The Ohio Homeland Security Division contributes to the prevention, detection, deterrence and response to terrorist activities in a number of ways. Central to any successful interdiction of terrorists is the ability to effectively collect and share information from many different sources.

Vital links to build intelligence on terrorist operations come from traditional agencies and from non-mainstream information services. To this end, the Ohio Division of Homeland Security has created the Strategic Analysis and Information Center to facilitate effective terrorism-related information and intelligence sharing.
