Fostering worldwide interoperability
Executive Summary
IEEE is the world’s largest technical professional society, with over 376,000
members in over 160 countries, grouped into geographic and technical areas
reflecting where members live and work. There are 44 technical societies and
councils which represent the wide range of technical interests in the IEEE.
IEEE holds more than 900 international conferences annually and publishes over
30% of the world’s literature in its fields. There are more than 1.7 million
documents in the IEEE/IET Electronic Library, including more than 900 active
industry standards and nearly 1,300 standards and projects under
development.
IEEE has been developing standards for 115+ years. IEEE standards reflect the
standardization principles as stated by the WTO, and the IEEE-SA has a leading
contemporary intellectual property policy. It encourages its membership to
participate in standardization activities, for the benefit of their industries and
the public good. IEEE’s technical professionals work in a global marketplace
where national boundaries are often a secondary issue. In fields where IEEE
work has already been done, it encourages international and regional standards
bodies to consider using IEEE standards as the source of technical information.
It has been a long standing IEEE policy to harmonize work with other SDOs when
possible to eliminate duplication of effort and speed the development of
international standards. A review of the high-interest areas of GSC-14
indicates a large amount (80%) of common areas with IEEE.

IEEE-SA Updates
http://standards.ieee.org/announcements/index.html
IEEE-SA approved the industry's first standard for
Broadband Over Power Lines: IEEE 1675™, IEEE Standard
for Broadband Over Powerline Hardware. Provides testing and
verification standards for the commonly used hardware, primarily
couplers, for BPL installations, and provides suggested installation
methods to supplement a utility's or contractor's installation procedures.
IEEE Std 1650™-2005, IEEE Standard Test Methods for
Measurement of Electrical Properties of Carbon Nanotubes
approved for adoption as an IEC/IEEE Dual Logo Document
(IEC 62624).
World's first motor vehicle “black box” data security standard
begun at IEEE; Intended to enhance both highway safety and
consumer protection. New work has begun on IEEE P1616a™ in order
to help prevent data tampering, VIN theft, and odometer fraud.
IEEE Approved Seven New Health Informatics Standards. The
standards have been created within the context of the ISO/IEEE 11073
family of standards addressing the interoperability of medical devices.
These new standards will help guide the manufacturers of health-care
devices in creating equipment for the secure creation and transmission
of electronic health-care information.

Std 802.3™ Ethernet standard to operating speeds of 40Gb/s
and 100Gb/s in order to provide a significant increase in
bandwidth.
802.1Qay - IEEE 802.1Qay (PBB-TE) Standard Enters Final
Phase of Ratification. Technical agreement has been reached
on the industry’s first connection-oriented technology for next
generation service provider networks.
