Notice of the 2024 Chapter election cycle for SEM R4. Greetings, It's time to conduct elections for our Chapter and Societies. Please contact me if you are interested in becoming an officer or want to help. This year IEEE has mandated that elections are to be conducted within each chapter and not the sole responsibility of the Section. To this end, each chapter will need to rally an election committee to seek out candidates and to conduct the election. Please see the list of open positions below. All Geo-units (Affinity Groups and Technical Chapters) officers remain as single year terms as shown below. Affinity Groups (all 4) and Chapters (all 18) Chair – assume office on January 1 for a one year term. Vice-Chair – assume office on January 1 for a one year term. Secretary – assume office on January 1 for a one year term. Treasurer – assume office on January 1 for a one year term. Our chapter elections will open on 5 August and close on 5 September. Plan to invite volunteers to seek election. Plan to invite volunteers to become part of the elections committee for the chapter. Duties will be to gather nominee names to add to the ballot below.

Chicago COMSOC Chapter is delighted to be back with the Distinguished Lecture series. Under the leadership of Prof. Besma Smida , IEEE COMSOC North America Director, COMSOC Chicago chapter is pleased to host 3rd IEEE COMSOC Distinguished Lecture Series. Topic: From Federated to Fog Learning: Expanding the Frontier of Model Training over Contemporary Wireless Network Systems Abstract Fog learning is an emerging paradigm for optimizing the orchestration of artificial intelligence services over contemporary network systems. Different from existing distributed techniques such as federated learning, fog learning emphasizes intrinsically in its design the unique node, network, and data properties encountered in today’s fog networks that span computing elements from the edge to the cloud. An important thread of research in fog learning has been on understanding the role that peer-to-peer topologies formed on an ad-hoc basis among local groups of heterogeneous computing elements can play in elevating the achievable tradeoff between intelligence quality and resource efficiency. In this talk, I will discuss recent results on the analysis of fog learning processes which give insights into the impact that these topologies, along with other properties such as model characteristics and fog decision parameters, have on global training performance. Additionally, I will discuss the development of adaptive control methodologies that leverage such relationships for jointly optimizing relevant fog learning metrics. Speaker(s): Chris, Prasenjit Agenda: - Welcome address : Prasenjit Banerjee, IEEE COMSOC Chicago Chapter Chair - Distinguished Lecture - From Federated to Fog Learning: Expanding the Frontier of Model Training over Contemporary Wireless Network Systems - Room: 1000, Bldg: Science and Engineering Office, 851 S Morgan St, Chicago, Illinois, United States, 60607

This event will invite local industry professionals to discuss the importance of making informed career choices and how professional organizations like IEEE can facilitate professional networking and learning beyond academic settings.
