			<description><![CDATA[In a world filled with distraction and diversion, the ability to focus is an ever-more sought after and valuable quality. People constantly search for that spectacular flash of "genius" or "talent" imagined being inside every brilliant engineer or scientist. And yet, all the while, we overlook the daily, hourly, and minutely focus that is the true commonality of the greats.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[In the spring of 1884, a small group of individuals in the electrical professions met in New York. They formed a new organization, the American Institute of Electrical Engineers (AIEE), to support professionals in their nascent field and to aid them in their efforts to apply innovation for the betterment of humanity. With the new "radio" industry came a new society in 1912, the Institute of Radio Engineers (IRE). The IRE was modeled on the AIEE but was devoted to radio and then increasingly to electronics. On 1 January 1963, the AIEE and the IRE merged to form the IEEE. At its formation, the IEEE had 150,000 members, 140,000 of which were in the United States. By 2008, the IEEE amassed 375,000 members in 160 countries, with 43% of members residing outside of the United States.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The paper discussed about the activities organized by the IEEE Student Branch of University of Auckland. As its leadership has spurred a student membership growth of 40% over the last two years. Current figures cite 220 active members who are offered the opportunity to participate in approximately ten student events every year. Although the branch's executive committee meets at least twice a semester, much of the organization is conducted via e-mail. The branch has grown to become a core social organization for students studying in IEEE-related fields, and students view membership as a great way to pick up professional skills, industry contacts, and to have fun.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[In 2009, IEEE is marking its 125th anniversary with a wide range of activities celebrating a century and a quarter of engineering the future. While it is fitting to see this occasion as an opportunity to look forward, it also is an occasion for IEEE to focus at least a little attention on how, from its modest beginnings in the United States, it grew to become the largest professional technical society in the world. The article looks at the historical development of the IEEE.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[With respect to Helen of Troy, the current lot of social networking Web sites, such as MySpace, Facebook, and Friendster, has become the face that launched a thousand ships. Whether you are an androgynous fan clamoring to "Leave Britney alone," an "Obama Girl," or intoning the impending wrath of the "Chocolate Rain," these sites have provided instant notoriety and 15 minutes of fame to a variety of eclectic users. Sure these sites are good for a few laughs, but are users really utilizing the crop of social networking tools to its greatest potential, or is your site sabotaging your employment search?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[With retailers filing for bankruptcy and companies across the globe laying off thousands of employees, its easy to conclude that we are currently in a buyer's market for talent where employment candidates may have to consider lower salary offers and endure longer job searches before the right offer emerges. Despite the dire outlook, it's important to remain focused on your goals. It's also essential to remember that even in a buyer's market, you still have the ability to negotiate salary and benefits. Before any talk of negotiation can begin, it is important for candidates to first build value.]]></description>

I have implemented every one of these actions and can definitively say that they have helped position me uniquely within whatever local work environment I found myself. Ultimately, their effectiveness is yours to determine, but if a colleague were to describe someone on their team as being "on top of the issues," "insightful," "perceptive," "action oriented," and "solutions focused," wouldn't you conclude they were capable of providing considerable value?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Patent law is the body of law governing the protection of rights to an invention made by an inventor and/or patent owner (such as a company or other organization which has obtained rights to a patent). Such an invention stems from an idea and may or may not result in a tangible product. Patent law protects the idea, and the owner of such an idea can prevent others from making, using, and selling a product that uses that idea by means of one or more associated patents. In the current global economic scenario, protection of intellectual property means protection from theft of potential profits that an individual or an organization can possibly make by commercialization of a patent and/or a family of patents related to a particular technology.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Where does one start to describe a career, especially trying to remember back over the past 54 years---with probably a couple of careers along the way. Perhaps the easiest way is to compress everything from birth to graduation from high school in a quick summary---I made it through! Still being the tender age of 17, like most teenagers, I didn't have a clue about what I wanted to do with life at that point. So, like many others, I took the easy way out and joined the United States Air Force. As it turned out, it was probably one of the better decisions of my young life.]]></description>

			<link><![CDATA[http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpls/abs_all.jsp?isnumber=4907969&arnumber=4907985]]></link>
			<description><![CDATA[Recent advances in nanotechnology have made it possible to manipulate the quantum mechanical spin of a single electron trapped in a tiny semiconductor nanostructure called a quantum dot. Experimental techniques for orienting and measuring a single electron's spin have also been demonstrated. These advances raise hopes for a brand new digital electronics technology predicated on the use of the spin degree of freedom of an electron, in lieu of the charge degree of freedom, to store, process, and transmit digital information. This new brand of electronics, that we have termed "single spintronics," is capable of extremely energy efficient computing and signal processing. Part I of this work describes classical single spintronics, where a single electron's spin is utilized for classical computing. Part II (to be published in the July/August 2009 issue) will provide an introduction to the use of single spintronics for quantum computation.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Electrical wiring on board aircraft has raised serious weight and safety concerns in the aerospace industry. Wires are antennas. Wires that carry signals, particularly high speed data, can radiate some of the energy of those signals. This can cause interference to radio-based systems on board the aircraft, or, in the case of military aircraft, create a "signature" that can be detected by enemy receivers.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[An architecture for creating intelligent systems for controlling road traffic is proposed. The system is based on a simple principle of RFID tracking of vehicles, can operate in real-time, improve traffic flow and safety, and fully automated, saving costly constant human involvement. The advantages ITCS can provide were demonstrated in detail which vouches for its effectiveness in traffic management systems. However, it is debatable whether monitoring every vehicle is morally acceptable and whether it is a violation of one of the basic civil rights-privacy.]]></description>
