Introducing the new IEEE Xplore

About the IEEE A not-for-profit society World’s largest technical membership association with over 395,000 members in 154 countries Expertise & experience of members = quality of content Four core areas of activity –Publishing –Conferences –Standards –Membership IEEE Mission IEEE promotes the engineering process of creating, developing, integrating, sharing, and applying knowledge about electro and information technologies and sciences for the benefit of humanity and the profession

What makes IEEE content different? IEEE peer review - the process in which a journal article or conference paper is submitted by the prospective publisher to experts in the field for critical evaluation prior to publication, a standard procedure in scholarly publishing. Synonymous with referred or juried review. Key questions –Is the science accurate? –Does the paper make a unique contribution to the “body of knowledge?” Assures credibility and authority of content –Beyond news or business trade sources –Far beyond open web content Most frequently cited content in technical literature & in Patents Quality of Content Peer Reviewed Periodicals and Conference Proceedings

According to the latest report, IEEE publishes: #1 journal in Electrical and Electronic Engineering 16 of the top 20 journals in Electrical and Electronic Engineering 9 of the top 10 journals in Telecommunications 6 of top 10 journals in Computer Science, Hardware & Architecture 7 of top 20 journals in Computer Science, Information Systems 9 of top 20 journals in Computer Science, Software Engineering # 1 in Imaging Science # 1 in Robotics # 1 in Artificial Intelligence # 1 in Transportation Technology # 3 in Biomedical Engineering Quality of Content Most frequently cited technical publisher Thomson Scientific ISI “Journal Citation Report” documents high quality The ISI JCR presents “quantifiable statistical data that provides a systematic, objective way to evaluate the world’s leading journals” (Report released June 2009) 4

IEEE cited 3.5x more than nearest competitor IEEE is 1st!  U.S. patent references from the top 25 patenting organizations in 2008 to top publishers  Based on number of references to papers/standards/conferences from Patent References to STM Publishers Source: 1790 Analytics 2008 IEEE

Breadth of content IEEE publishes in all areas of technology More than just electrical engineering & computer science Antennas Biomedical Engineering Computing Electrical Engineering Industrial Engineering Nanotechnology Nuclear Science Power Remote Sensing Aerospace Circuits Communications Energy Information Technology Optics Radiology Security Software Transportation Wireless

What do you get with the IEEE/IET Electronic Library (IEL)? >2.5 million full-text articles 149 IEEE journals & magazines 23 IET journals & magazines >900 annual IEEE conferences >40 IET annual conferences >2,000 IEEE standards Unlimited access for all document types Inspec index records for all articles Backfile to 1913 for select titles Monthly COUNTER-compliant usage statistics 7

Trends: IEEE Content Direction Technology moving faster than ever - globally Multidisciplinary solutions are increasingly relevant and critical to problem solving 2009 – Worldwide IEEE members reach all time high – 395,000; >6000 IEEE Fellows 2009 – IEEE Conferences exceed 1000 for 1 st time –Conferences organized and run by volunteers –See an emerging area and want to focus and network around that topic Focus on “hot topics” –Complex issues of global relevance and concern 8

IEEE Focus: Hot Topics Sustainable energy Sustainable world Smart Grid Healthcare Education Infrastructure Consumer Electronics Space 9

IEEE Xplore adds new journals 26 titles added – 2003 to 2008 Six new titles being added in 2009 –IEEE Solid-State Circuits Magazine –IEEE Transactions on Autonomous Mental Development –IEEE/OSA Journal of Optical Communications and Networking –IEEE Photonics Journal –IEEE Embedded Systems Letters –IEEE Transactions on Computational Intelligence and AI in Games

New Content IEEE-Wiley eBooks Library  >400 titles  19 cutting edge technologies  Handbooks, introductory & advanced texts, reference & professional works IEEE and IBM partner to bring you two prestigious IBM journals  IBM Journal of Research and Development  IBM Systems Journal New IEEE Journals for 2010  IEEE Biometrics Compendium  IEEE Magnetic Letters  IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid  IEEE Transactions on Sustainable Energy  IEEE Transactions on Affective Computing

IEEE Adds AIP and AVS Journals Highly cited content in applied physics AIP/AVS content integrated into Xplore Five titles added in 2009 –Applied Physics Letters (AIP) –Journal of Applied Physics (AIP) –Review of Scientific Instruments (AIP) –JVST A: Vacuum, Surfaces and Films (AVS) –JVST B: Microelectronics and Nanometer Structures (AVS) 12

Focus on System Performance and Service – Upgrades in 2009 IEEE Xplore Release 2.6 – March 2009 –Infrastructure upgrade –Authentication system upgrade –Laid the foundation for future enhancements:  Search personalization (saved searches, search alerts)  Foundation for Shibboleth authentication  More detailed statistics All of these enhancements required further development but the upgrade makes its all possible
