JPC/IECEC Paper/abstract Trending
New Conference Model Background
• Membership and conference attendance trending downward• Median age of members is 51• 92% Male• # Exhibitors at conference rapidly shrinking• Systems engineering becoming more prevalent in industry but
not represented in current conference model
• “Tiger” team formed to look into alternatives to current conference structure
• Meeting held yesterday (8 Jan 2012) to discuss this issue and obtain feedback from TCs
P&E Discussion Framework
• There Is An “Imperative For Change”• NEM Tiger Team Has Developed & Evaluated Four Specific
Conference Model Options; Briefed At 8Jan12’s TAC Workshop• Exact Path Forward Is TBD (TAC Meeting On Thursday)
Incorporating Workshop Feedback; Stay The Course Vs. Change Direction? Process & Timeline For Making An Actionable Decision Assume At Some Point, There Will Be A TAC/BOD Vote On A Specific Motion
• Issues Before P&E Leadership How Do We Best Solicit And Represent Feedback From Our TC Members &
From The P&E Community As A Whole? Is There A Specific Option That Is “Best” For The P&E Community? Is There Value In Developing A “P&E Group Position” … Or, Is It Best Left To
Each TC Or Each Individual Member?12
50th AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeting - January, 2012 - Nashville, TN
Four Event Models Assessed to Date
Name Description
Current •Current portfolio with minor change, e.g., some co-location
Consolidated •Current larger Events (ASM, Fluids, JPC, Space, GNC, SDM) plus Aviation and Defense as centers of gravity for consolidating smaller conferences
•Augment with systems development/integration elementsIntegrated •Comprehensive, domain-focused Events providing integrated content
•~4 Events spread over the year: R&D, Aviation, Space, and DefenseUnified •Multi-domain, unified Events split between R&D and Systems
Engineering, Integration, and Test (SEIT)•One big Event for R&D (winter) and one for SEIT/programs (summer)
and a smaller Defense conference
13
P&E Resolution
• The committees in the P&E group were unanimously favorable to the consolidated model which maintains the JPC, ASM and 4 other large conferences and combines the smaller conferences into one of the larger conferences
• A large number of TCs (again) emphasized the need for ITAR sessions to make the conference more relevant to U.S. attendees.
• P&E group adopted a resolution (paraphrased): If a new conference model is required, the consolidated model should be
adopted with a review in 3 years to determine whether further change is required.
We believe the larger issue behind falling membership, less attendance at conferences is due to lack of ITAR sessions and recommend incorporating these in the consolidated model.
Need your input
• Discussion• Please write comments on what you personally
view as important aspects for conferences and the impact on various models would have on your interest / attendance.
• Please give me comments tonight. Other thoughts later to [email protected]
