| Message from the EiC |
Welcome to the December 2019
issue of VTS Mobile World – your IEEE Vehicular Technology Society
newsletter. This is our last issue for the year, and also it will be my
last issue as Editor-in-Chief.
After four enjoyable years, I am stepping down from my
role as EiC of VTS Mobile World, and leaving it in the capable hands of
our Associate EiC, Richard Yu. I am confident that he will deliver great
issues to your mailbox going forward.
I hope in the past four years you have
found VTS Mobile World to be a great source of information on Society
activities and the greater world of vehicular technology. Our President
will also have his final message for this year as he takes the role of
Junior Past President of the Society.
As always, I am always available to hear
your feedback; just send me a note at a.jamalipour@ieee.org.
Happy holidays! Read More... |

I will continue to serve on the Board of Governors as Junior Past President, to ensure a seamless transition to our next President—Abbas Jamalipour—and also to continue advancing the goals of IEEE VTS. Read More... |
