Accomplishments over the past year
• SciTech 2015
 13 IS Sessions (56 Papers, 2 Invited Panels)
 4 IS Sessions with 18 papers
 Improvement from 3 sessions in 2013 & 2 in 2012
• IS Roadmap Workshop 2014
 Goal of 50 attendees, 52 registered
 3 Break-out topics: Autonomy, UAS into NAS,
Adaptive & Non-deterministic systems
What are your goals for next year?
• Successful SciTech 2016
 Deputy Program Chair: Kevin Kochersberger
 Intelligent Systems Technical Discipline Chair: Nisar
Ahmed
• IS Workshop 2015 - NASA Ames, Mountain View, CA
 Dates: August 6-7, 2015 (Thu-Fri)
 TC meeting: August 5, 2015 (Wed 2:00 pm)
Challenges/Observations
• Confusion with SciTech Organization
• Improve I@A paper quality – SciTech 2016 require 5
page (minimum) abstract
• Decreased AIAA budget – small registration fee at
Workshop to bring in TC funds
