Executive Summary

• IEEE is the worlds largest technical
  professional society, with over 376,000 members
  in over 160 countries, grouped into geographic
  and technical areas reflecting where members live
  and work. There are 44 technical societies and
  councils which represent the wide range of
  technical interests in the IEEE.
• IEEE holds more than 900 international
  conferences annually and publishes over 30 of
  the worlds literature in its fields. There are
  more than 1.7 million documents in the IEEE/IET
  Electronic Library, including more than 900
  active industry standards and nearly 1,300
  standards and projects under development.
• IEEE has been developing standards for 115
  years. IEEE standards reflect the
  standardization principles as stated by the WTO,
  and the IEEE-SA has a leading contemporary
  intellectual property policy. It encourages its
  membership to participate in standardization
  activities, for the benefit of their industries
  and the public good. IEEEs technical
  professionals work in a global marketplace where
  national boundaries are often a secondary issue.
  In fields where IEEE work has already been done,
  it encourages international and regional
  standards bodies to consider using IEEE standards
  as the source of technical information.
• It has been a long standing IEEE policy to
  harmonize work with other SDOs when possible to
  eliminate duplication of effort and speed the
  development of international standards. A review
  of the high-interest areas of GSC-14 indicates a
  large amount (80) of common areas with IEEE.
• The following slides provide detail.

IEEE-SA Updateshttp//standards.ieee.org/announce
ments/index.html

• IEEE-SA approved the industry's first standard
  for Broadband Over Power Lines
  IEEE 1675, IEEE Standard for Broadband
  Over Powerline Hardware. Provides testing and
  verification standards for the commonly used
  hardware, primarily couplers, for BPL
  installations, and provides suggested
  installation methods to supplement a utility's or
  contractor's installation procedures.
• IEEE Std 1650-2005, IEEE Standard Test Methods
  for Measurement of Electrical Properties of
  Carbon Nanotubes approved for adoption as an
  IEC/IEEE Dual Logo Document (IEC 62624).
  
• World's first motor vehicle black box data
  security standard begun at IEEE Intended to
  enhance both highway safety and consumer
  protection. New work has begun on IEEE P1616a in
  order to help prevent data tampering, VIN theft,
  and odometer fraud.
• IEEE Approved Seven New Health Informatics
  Standards. The standards have been created within
  the context of the ISO/IEEE 11073 family of
  standards addressing the interoperability of
  medical devices. These new standards will help
  guide the manufacturers of health-care devices in
  creating equipment for the secure creation and
  transmission of electronic health-care
  information.
