Call for Nominees for SSCS Administrative Committee Election

In accordance with its Constitution, the IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society invites members of our Society to nominate candidates for the Society's Administrative Committee (AdCom). The election is held in the September-October time frame.

Nominees by Petition

Nominees will be placed automatically on the ballot provided:

• The nominee is presently a member of the IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society.
• The petition is supported by at least ten identifiable signatures of present members of the Society other than the nominee.
• The nominee is both aware of and agrees to the petition.
• The petition is received by the Chair of the Nominations Committee by 1 May 2002.
  Terms of Office
• The term of office is three years beginning 1 January 2003.
• AdCom members may be reelected to a second consecutive term.
• The five nominees receiving the highest number of votes from the Society membership will be elected.

Scope and Responsibilities

Elected AdCom members are expected to attend the two yearly meetings of the AdCom. In addition, much of the Committee work is carried on by email, telephone, and fax throughout the year. The Solid-State Circuits Society currently sponsors The Journal of Solid-State Circuits, the International Solid-State Circuits Conference, the Custom Integrated Circuits Conference, the VLSI Circuits Symposium, and the Solid-State Circuits and Technology Committee's workshops. In addition, the Society cosponsors or technically cosponsors a number of other conferences and meetings.

The AdCom has responsibility for overseeing these and other potential future technical activities within the Society's field of interest, as well as the overall operation of the Society.

Mailing Petitions

All petitions should be accompanied by a personal photograph and a short biography (200 words or less), including the nominee's technical areas of interest. Petitions must be received by 1 May 2002. Petitions are to be mailed to:
