Members and Non-Members Welcome

PLEASE POST

IEEE and North Jersey Section Going Web 2.0, Facebook & Linked-In

If you are reading this article, there is a good chance you are reading this either on a paper newsletter or on a static webpage. Some of that will be changing to provide the reader alternative channels of accessing important information.

This article tries to provide a brief introduction to RSS, Really Simple Syndication, which is the core technology behind Web 2.0 features, applications, and how IEEE is now using it.

There are many detailed descriptions of RSS and how it works (see Wikipedia for a good introduction to RSS and XML), but in the context of Web 2.0, it is an XML (eXtensible markup language) based push technology that allows for moving information from the content producer to the appropriate client software being used to aggregate data from many sources to present to the user.

Many people are already using such client software without actually knowing that it is RSS and XML driving it under the hood. For example, news portal sites like Yahoo utilize RSS, Google Reader is an aggregator that also collects subscribed feeds as diverse as news stories, daily blogs, to audio and video podcasts. Popular social networking sites like Facebook and Linked-In are also powered by this technology and push member's status changes and postings out to email, twitter and SMS.

So what does this have to do with the IEEE? One great example of how the IEEE currently uses Web 2.0 is the individualized myIEEE (http://www.ieee.org/web/membership/myieee.html) portal that every single member has as part of their membership. It allows for customization of products and services of interest to the member as well as notification of IEEE wide events of interest in different categories.

Additionally, a little over a year ago the IEEE introduced a new meeting and event announcement system which allows for publishing feeds of these events to the public. This data is then collected using the subscriber's favorite client aggregator software.

Many people make use of one or more of such technologies and can now integrate their access to local IEEE event notifications. Over the course of the next year the North Jersey Section will roll out all meeting and event notifications using RSS. You can begin to participate now using the following URL:

meetings.vtools.ieee.org/meetings/rss/1/ NORTH%20JERSEY

Paste this address into your RSS reader or aggregator software of choice. You can even use Microsoft Outlook 2007 to collect notifications. Just go to the tools, account settings, RSS feeds tab and paste this URL into the dialog box.

Additionally, if you use Facebook or LinkedIn, the North Jersey Section now has a Facebook fan page that you can become a fan of and all these meeting postings will be notified via the fan page which you can join here:

www.facebook.com/pages/IEEE-North-Jersey-Section/

If you use LinkedIn, you can join the IEEE North Jersey Section Group to receive the same event notifications as well. Just go to

www.linkedin.com

and search for IEEE North Jersey Section under the groups menu.

Click through links for both the fan page and group will be available off the main North Jersey Section website at http://web.njit.edu/~ieeenj. As the process of rolling out better integrated Web 2.0 functionality continues via myIEEE and our Facebook fan page and Linked-In group, the updates will be publicized in future articles. For now, try out RSS feeds and our Fan Page and or Group to see how you can make better use of this information using your notification channel of choice.

About the Talk

Accurate person identification and authentication grows in importance each day. Whether to access a location, use a device with attendant access to information, or to travel, the need to ensure person identity increases as does the population of those needing these services. This discussion begins with an overview of biometrics and biometric systems then transitions to focus on the application of multi-modal biometrics to better facilitate person identification and authentication.

About the Speaker

Dr. George J. Proeller is an experienced security engineer and also serves as an Adjunct Professor of Computer Science at Colorado Technical University where he teaches courses in computer security at the graduate and doctoral level.
