| Message from the EiC |
Welcome to the January 2020 issue of VTS Mobile World – your IEEE Vehicular Technology Society newsletter. This is our first issue for the year, and also it is my first issue as Editor-in-Chief.
Under the excellent leadership of former Editor-in-Chief Abbas Jamalipour, VTS Mobile World has remained a great source of information on Society activities and the great world of vehicular technology. We are extremely grateful for Professor Jamalipour’s great contributions, and he will continue to contribute in his Message from the President as part of his new role in VTS.
I am always available to hear your feedback; just send me a note at Richard.Yu@ieee.org. Happy holidays! Read More... |
