As many of you are aware the IEEE
Board of Directors has adopted a
motion supporting the recovery of
MCE operating costs for Technically CoSponsored (TCS) conferences that are
conducted after 31 December 2015.
The cost recovery referenced in this
motion, or TCS fee, is US$1,000 per
conference and US$15 per paper
published in Xplore.
The MGA Board of Directors (BoD) is
currently considering MGA’s
implementation of the cost recovery
policy and TCS fees. A Task Force has
been assembled by MGA VP, Lawrence
Wong, to evaluate and recommend a
course of action. As soon as a decision
is reached by the MGA BoD, a
communication advisory shall be
distributed.
Until such time that a MGA BoD
decision is communicated, the
collection of TCS fees should not be
initiated and arrangements for 2016

HS Chapter life
Each section reports to R8 two times
per year. Formerly the general data was
given (membership, events, officers,
etc.) but nowadays these data can be
retrieved from different roosters and
databases. In the last year IEEE shows
some focus topics and going to get
feed-back from the sections/chapters,
how they work and live. Here you find
the summary of the HS operation in the
last year, based on chapter reports.
1. Getting Closer to Industry
The Hungarian instrumentation and
biomed industry is fragmented, not
interested in long term, IEEE-based
cooperation, but only in short term
(thesis level) research topics, if any.
IEEE background (at the industry side,
and/or at the university side) does not
mean a pulling force. Multis are neither
interested.
The main difficulties seem to originate
from the position of the Hungarian
industry and these difficulties cannot
be treated/relaxed by IEEE. IEEE
membership gives good opportunity to
recruit co-workers for EU-financed
project so the industrial relationships
can be strengthened on an
international level with the help of IEEE.
Via elaboration project proposals for
what we seek potential partners from
the industry, too.
The IEEE Hungary CS&C Joint Chapter
will organize seminars on special topics
for our colleagues working both in
industry and university education. The
seminar will provide a chance for the
university teachers to contact their
industrial partners and for the industry
to launch new research projects at the
universities. During these seminars
those points should be defined for
successful collaboration between
university and industry which well fit
into the university curricula while
satisfy the needs of the industry.
2. Students and Young Professionals
Helping to publish - always! Without it
students and the young researchers are
handicapped in progress and excluded
from grants and awards. The YP's
primarily goal is to connect with each
other and not with industry, we do not
have many direct activities. But during
industry site visits and conferences we
have the opportunity to meet
representatives of the industry.
The conference costs, travelling,
accomodation make it impossible to
finance regular and substantial student
presence at the conferences (from the
point of view of a Central European
5
educational institution grappling with
an inadequate financing). A troubling
phenomenon to mention, impairing
considerably students enthusiasm:
papers accepted as "fitting well" for the
conference were rejected from the
special issue, as "unfitting". Not a single
case.
The IEEE Hungary CS&C Joint Chapter
supports PhD Mini-Symposium which is
a mini conference for PhD students to
present their hot research and receive
immediate feedback from experienced
researchers. The IES/RAS Joint Chapter
of HS regularly participates as financial
co-sponsor and their co-workers
contribute to the organization of IEEEhallmarked inter-continental, regional
conferences, and conference series.
3. Section Vitality
Region or Section should get much
more autonomy in this respect.
Our members who are teaching at
different Hungarian universities will
advertise the IEEE and its benefits
during their university lectures and
keep providing the scientific credit of
PhD Mini-Symposiums. In the academic
sphere it is important to keep the
professors and other educators in IEEE.
Organizing yearly the Student Branch's
members is very important, too.
Official news of
IEEE Region 8
Hungary Section
Vol.7. No.2.
2015 fall
Normally after completing their
university studies at the MSc or PhD
level the students leave IEEE,
depending on the conditions at their
employers. It is of vital significance to
recruit the newcomers.
This problem is mainly of financial
nature as far as the membership fee of
the students and other members is
concerned. The existing members can
produce "vitality" due to their scientific
work related to publications.
Following the renewal of the leadership
of the IES/RAS Joint Chapter of HS, this
is rather the competence of the new
leadership.
Mainly programs connected with
technical visits are popular. A little
funding would help raising activity of
the group, at least travel
reimbursement or daily allowance.
Without it today's young generation is
hard to be motivated.
4. Miscellaneous / Recommendations /
Feed-back
The Óbuda University plans to organize
a regular series of conference on his
birthday to cultivate the memory of
Professor Antal Bejczy. I think that
IES/RAS Joint Chapter of HS is indebted
to support this effort both financially
and professionally.
The IEEE Hungary CS&C Joint Chapter is
going to organize special seminars for
the university students and young
professional where the benefits of IEEE
membership will be advertised. We are
also going to organize round-table
discussion where our young colleagues
will be able to collect information,
make new friends in both industry and
university education and learn special
methods to boost their professional
carrier.
The electronic Newsletter of the HS is
warmly welcome by the IEEE HS
members.

MCE SPOTLIGHT: IEEE POCO
Recap
In July 2015, IEEE Meetings,
Conferences & Events (MCE) held the
Panel of Conference Organizers (POCO),
an annual event which convenes the
conference community. Over 190
attendees from more than 31 countries
had the opportunity to network, share
ideas and collaborate. Attendees
included over 60 contacts from the
6
local IEEE UK&I Section with more than
50 IEEE leaders representing
Section/Council Presidents, VP
Conferences, and Regional Directors.
Attendees took part in thoughtprovoking and insightful sessions that
provided a real value to conference
leaders. For 2015, MCE focused on
elevating the discussions, providing
real-time problem solving and
demonstrating the importance of a “fun
factor” at POCO while also creating a
more systematic training and education
program outside of POCO to meet the
ongoing needs of our global organizer
community.
The robust agenda invigorated both
IEEE conference organizers and
conference leadership alike:
Day 1 was an education day featuring
“Getting Started with Conferences” and
“Audience Development Growing your
Conference Attendance.”
Day 2 highlighted excellence in
scholarly conferences with sessions on
“Cultural Differences in Academic
Publishing” and “Perfect Peer Review.”
Day 3 focused on innovation infusion
with session highlights including
“Future Tech and the Impact on Events”
and “The Future of Information and
what it means for Scholarly
Conferences.”
Official news of
IEEE Region 8

Some of the most experienced IEEE
conference organizers were on hand to
share their knowledge and passion for
conferences. POCO 2015 also
highlighted an amazing session on
future technologies and their impact on
events presented by Chad Kaydo,
founder of The X Letter; as well as
another great session on the future of
information and what that means for
scholarly conferences presented by Dr.
Donald Samulack, President of the U.S.
Operations for Cactus Communications
and Editage.
Having Region 8 leadership and Oceanic
Engineering Society (OES) leadership
co-locate their meetings with POCO
enabled more knowledge-sharing and
collaboration on the future of events.
This is an area of growth and
opportunity for POCO which will
continue in future years with more
groups choosing to co-locate with
POCO and enable their volunteers to
join in the conversation.
POCO 2015 was inspiring, invigorating,
insightful and fun. Look forward to
experiencing more adventures at POCO
2016 in Montreal, Canada with MCE.
Since POCO is ever-evolving, there will
be a new and exciting theme for 2016
as well as hot topics for discussion!
Please contact MCE to arrange for your
ad-com or exec-com to co-locate with
POCO next year and have your
executive team included in our annual
gathering of the conferences
community. If you are interested in
further information on POCO 2016,
please contact MCE. Stay tuned for
future editions of this newsletter where
other MCE groups will be highlighted.

Budapest University of Technology and
Economics Student Branch Chapter. The
lecturer was Dr. Alajos Stróbl. Now he is
working at Pöyry ERŐTERV Co., but
earlier he worked at several big
Hungarian companies in the energy
industry. With his knowledge and
experience probably he was the best
choice to present this topic.

The audience heard some information
about the power plant building
possibilities in the next 15 years. Paks
nuclear power plant will be stopped
and the new 2x1200 MW blocks (Paks
II) will be started until 2045. There will
be a period while all blocks (4x500 MW
old and 2x1200 MW new) will work
together. The only lignite-fired power
plant (Mátra) will be stopped soon, so

maybe it will be necessary to build
some new blocks. It’s important
because if it won’t happen, Hungary
will use just foreign fuels (gas, uranium,
import). The cheapest PP type would be
OCGT, but the government doesn’t
assist to build it.
Closing his lecture Dr. Alajos Stróbl
highlighted some interesting
information about the pricing principles
and emission price tendencies.

On Figure above, red color means the
prices of electricity generation, blue is
the network cost, purple and green are

university students, but big part of the
Hungarian energy industries were
represented by retired and active
workers or top management, too.
IEEE Day ’15 Photo contest
Within the confines of the IEEE Day
2015, first time in its history BUTE SBC
participated in the photo contest. To
make all this possible, the chapter
members had to recruit a team, find a
professional photographer and figure
out the exact topics. The concept was
to make pictures for the Overall and the
Best Technical Activity categories. Also
the participants had so much fun during
the photoshoot. We met the vice-head
of the High Voltage Laboratory of BUTE
and he helped us to take the technical
photos. After taking the photos, we
started to share them on Facebook to
gain more votes. We got lots of them
and also some and promising
feedbacks. As a result, we won the Best
Technical Activity category with a High
Voltage Laboratory picture.

on a digitizer pad or touch-sensitive
screen (e.g. iPad). The sketch is
matched to a data base of sketches.
The principal innovation of the
proposed algorithm is treating the
sketch as a function of time, and using
local measures of that function as
parameters for the shape-recognition
algorithm, SKS.
Professor Jacek M. Zurada presented:
‘Towards Better Understanding of Data:
Constrained Learning of Latent Features
in Neural Networks’,
In this talk, the SKS algorithm will be
first described as a way to match
curves, and then extended to recognize
curves. Special modifications to be able
to use sketches as passwords is
included.
